Learning in Nature for Grades 1-4 at the BCS Nature Campus
Berlin Cosmopolitan School is excited to expand its innovative educational model beyond the city, introducing learning spaces at our Nature Campus, located by the beautiful Müggelsee and within Berlin Mitte. Our primary students, from Grades 1 to 4, now have the unique opportunity to experience transformative, bilingual education directly in nature—by the lake and within the forest. This holistic approach fosters a unique learning moment where students engage in transdisciplinary lessons, connecting with nature in ways that inspire learning for self, community, and the planet.
A Transformative Approach to Future Learning
In this setting, students experience a bilingual curriculum that embraces cutting-edge digital technologies, including Artificial Intelligence (AI), as part of the learning process. This combination equips students with forward-looking skills and fosters a deep appreciation of the natural world. The Nature E Seminar cultivates skills vital for the future by blending high digital standards with experiential learning in nature, encouraging innovative and sustainable thinking.
Daily Transport & Facilities
Catering and extracurricular clubs are available at each learning site. A daily transportation service connects the city campus in Mitte with the Nature Campus at Müggelsee, ensuring seamless integration of city and nature experiences. Our income-adjusted fees include transportation costs, ensuring that children travel comfortably to both learning locations each day.

Primary Experiences in Nature
Our educators regularly spend time with children in nature and have developed our concept for several age groups. In 2017, based on more than 15 years of experience, we founded our own forest school on our own piece of forest and published the concept in our own book “Waldtage” 2022.
Our forest school and nature school are schools for every age group. This can be done in different ways for example through outdoor lessons, horticulture or excursions to nearby and more distant nature.
Our nature school is compatible with the school and kindergarten because it is a way to connect the students, pre-school and kindergarten children with nature. This enables children and young people to learn more about nature and understand it better.
Learning in nature helps students, pre-school and kindergarten children in different ways. Firstly, they can understand and retain things better in nature because they learn with all their senses and because they also learn in a stress-free and pleasant environment.
In addition, our pupils, pre-school and kindergarten children build a positive and lasting relationship with the natural world through our nature school. They thus automatically know, appreciate, engage with and protect nature today and in the future.
