Faithful to the tradition of welcoming French institutions abroad, the Franco-Costa Rican Lyceum is recognized by the Ministry of National Education and has an agreement with the Agency for French Education Abroad (AEFE).

It educates more than 1,000 students and fully participates in the international network of French high schools present in 137 countries around the world.

Receiving daily more than 20 different nationalities in its classrooms, the Liceo Franco-Costarricense establishes lasting affinities between French and foreign students. This diversity is a considerable attraction during the schooling of our students who derive the greatest benefit from the projection of our two languages ​​and cultures, and reinforce every day the humanist values ​​that are the foundation of our republican model.

Green Shoots is an inspirational learning community that fosters happy, mindful and creative thinkers committed to the sustainable development of our world.

We integrate the importance of a values-led life into every aspect of a child’s learning journey, from the classroom to the dinner table, the sports field to the journey home.

We recognise the importance of preparing children for the exams that some higher education systems still prioritise, but we also innovate to develop the broader educational experiences that more progressive universities and professions are looking for. Primary-aged children are taught to question, analyse and discuss concepts beyond the written curriculum, and by the time they reach the secondary years, students are exposed to in-house courses that consider broad concepts like sustainable living and equity, as well as the Green Shoots Global Citizenship Certificate.

To support the growth of tomorrow’s leaders we combine two key ingredients:

A holistic education, to encourage out-of-the-box thinking, and the ability to connect disparate thoughts and ideas, and 
A holistic approach to personal development, to build the emotional resilience, self-confidence, and humility that balance an enquiring mind.  

The Green Shoots Extra Curricular Activities (ECA) runs from 3.40 to 4.40pm each day after school and is also open to children who are not Green Shoots students. Activities have included:

Sporting Activities: Senior Sports Hangout, Football, Aikido, Gymnastics 
The Arts: Choir, Drama, Public Speaking, Dance
Scientific and Technical: Mad Scientists, Tinkerlab
Games and Crafting: Chess, Minecraft, Sewing, Master Chef, 
Other activities: Sprouts (the Green Shoots answer to Scouts), Language Clubs in French and Vietnamese, Mandarin and Sign Language

For a short term option  Green Shoots runs a summer school programme for one month every summer, beginning shortly after the end of term (see school calendar for details). It is offered to children from two to twelve years old.

Each week offers a range of fun, themed activities that are suited to the age and interests of children on the programme. Games, group activities, science experiments, treasure hunts, and artistic projects build confidence and expand friendships.

Life Project Education is a grassroots holistic education center nestled in an intimate nature-rich community in the area of Bahia Ballena, Costa Rica.

​Our unique programs offer opportunities for children, families, and teachers to explore the interconnected layers of their humanity that are traditionally undermined in modern systems. In addition to nurturing critical intellect, Life Project visitors are equally exposed to experiences that ignite emotional, social, artistic, moral, psychological, physical, aesthetic, creative, and intuitive layers of development.

​And we do most of it outdoors, surrounded by the pristine energy of the rain forest, in the “happiest country on the planet.” (happy planet index) Pura Vida!

​Supported by the most cutting-edge research in the realms of quantum physics and Holistic Learning Theory, we educate through an energetic lens, treating our students as sovereign, non-standard beings. The mechanical worldview that predominates current constructs of learning, teaching, healing, and living is not only incomplete, it is intuitively-obsolete.
