In a world that is full of learning possibilities, Futuraskolan International leads the way in developing international mindedness amongst our students, staff and families. With us, they evolve to become tolerant, attentive, respectful, curious, communicative and contributing individuals to the society and the world around.
Futuraskolan wishes to make more concrete how we work with the development of global citizenship, our international profile, our promise and our value ground. In the development of global citizenship, we want to nurture an action orientation by getting more of our staff and students/children involved in community service and exchange in order to develop a deeper understanding of ourselves and others. This exchange is intended to happen on both a local, national and international level.
Through feeding programs, home visits, sharing of knowledge and learning the connection between Futuraskolan and the international community is strengthened.
Today @futuraskolan_bergtorp are visiting an organic farm nestled in the Italian countryside, surrounded by green fields and mountains. The students took part in a lecture about sustainable agriculture and its importance for both Italian culture and global health. We explored how farming connects to key global issues such as climate change (SDG 13), responsible consumption and production (SDG 12), and good health and well-being (SDG 3).
We’re spending the morning walking through the area, reflecting on the impact of food systems on people and the planet. The Italian teachers surprised us with local pizza, which we’ll enjoy as a picnic lunch with the group – a perfect moment of cultural exchange.
The weather is lovely today – partly sunny and 23°C. Later, we’ll head to the coast for some well-deserved gelato and time by the sea.
Earth Day Celebration – A Joyful Day of Climate Action and Community
Futuraskolan International Preschool Näsby Park hosted a special Earth Day celebration at Centralparken, together with our Futuraskolan sister preschools from Danderyd, Skarpäng, and Kvarnskogen. It was a beautiful, sunny day filled with learning, teamwork, and joy as our young learners came together to take action for our planet. 🌍
The morning began with a joint Circle Time where the children were introduced to the theme of Earth Day and the importance of caring for our environment. Then, we sang and danced Earth themed songs all together. Afterwards, we formed groups and set off to clean the forest and surrounding area, collecting litter and learning how to sort it properly at the local recycling stations.
One of the highlights of the day was hanging the birdhouses the children had made from recycled materials, creating new homes for forest wildlife. The event ended with a calm and joyful outdoor yoga session, where all the children gathered again to connect with nature and each other.
This meaningful experience connected directly to the UN Sustainable Development Goal 13: Climate Action, and was grounded in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, particularly:
Article 6: The right to life, survival, and development
Article 24: The right to health, clean water, and a safe environment
It was truly heartwarming to see children and educators from different preschools come together in a shared mission of sustainability and care. Together, we made a difference—and had lots of fun along the way!
Thank you to all our young eco-heroes and the teachers for making a positive impact in our planet!

First day in Latina, Italy – a meaningful start to our GCP exchange for @futuraskolan_bergtorp
We were warmly welcomed by our partner school, where students from Italy, Cyprus, Greece, and Sweden shared presentations about their schools and local products. This exchange offered valuable insight into each country’s culture and educational system.
Students then collaborated in international groups during a school tour to deepen their understanding of different learning environments. The day concluded with a symbolic tree planting – a gesture representing unity, growth, and our shared responsibility for a sustainable future.
This experience reflects GCP’s core values of intercultural understanding, collaboration, and education for sustainable development – closely aligned with the UN’s Global Goals, particularly Goal 4 (Quality Education) and Goal 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).

After seeing the growth with our initial attempt at our GCP revegetation project in the schoolyard, @futuraskolan_radan fritids decided harness their ambitions and close off a bigger area to encourage grass growth. Before starting, learners researched methods to help our revegetation efforts - breaking the soil up a bit, and watering with a fertilising concentrate (which is made at out school from our food waste) 🥰 - Sustainability in action and coming full circle!

"People make the world go round" —especially during Earth Month. Today, students and teachers at @Stockholm Bilingual, brought their favourite books and films to life through creative costumes.
Our GCP students from Futuraskolan Kottla visited the preschool students at Gåshaga and talked about their experience in Greece and our project 💪♻️
Such a nice day for our young global citizens 🥰👌

On Friday, 30 students from @futuraskolan_bergtorp year 7 visited the Museum of Ethnography to explore Japanese culture through the theme of mythical creatures and traditional calligraphy.
The museum, which focuses on cultures from all over the world (ethnos = people, graphein = to write), offered a guided tour with insights into historical Japanese writing systems and belief systems.
The visit ended with a creative workshop where students practiced calligraphy on rice paper — connecting art, language, and history in a hands-on way.
This experience supports Global Goal 4: Quality Education by promoting inclusive and engaging learning opportunities, and Global Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities by encouraging respect and curiosity for cultures beyond our own.
Global Citizens in Bloom!
As part of our Global Citizens Project and IEYC theme “Going Places”, our young
globetrotters at #futuraskolanbrunbärsvägen visited Kungsträdgården to see the magical cherry blossoms ! 🌸
We traveled by bus 🚌 and metro 🚇, explored the city as small explorers, and noticed
people (and cute dogs 🐶) from all over enjoying the beauty around us.
A lovely reminder that we all share this world—and its wonders—together! 🌍
