We are thrilled to have your family join us and look forward to empowering and guiding your child on their learning journey.

✏️ Learning materials

Each day, your child will need to bring:

• A water bottle that can be refilled at the Hub 

• A pencil case with at least 5 pencils, an eraser, and a sharpener

This materials list provides everything your child needs during the year. 

⏰ Learner’s schedule

Your child’s daily schedule starts at 9.00am. 

Tardiness: If your child is running late, please let us know by emailing villagehub@ learnlife.com or calling +34 696 98 77 34 

If your child has not arrived within the first 30 minutes of their scheduled day, and we have not heard from you, our Community Host will email you to check in and confirm the reason for the delay.

If your child is going to arrive late, please email us in advance and include the reason for the delay, so we can keep track and understand any patterns.

If your child is repeatedly late, they will need to follow the specific tardiness policy of their program. When needed, we will also arrange a conversation with you and your child to better understand the situation and agree on a way forward.

Absence, extended absences and leaving early: If your child needs to leave early or will be absent, please let us know by emailing villagehub@ learnlife.com or calling +34 696 98 77 34 

If your child will be absent for an extended period due to a family circumstance, please email villagehub@ learnlife.com and michel@learnlife.com

🥗 Snack & Lunch

Learners have a snack break daily at 10:30. You need to provide snacks for your child, which are eaten either at the Village Hub or at the park. 

We ask you to provide snacks that enhance learning experiences. Excellent options include fruits, vegetables, nuts, hard-boiled eggs or whole grains. Learners can't share snacks for two key reasons: 1) allergies, and 2) parents pack what they prefer their children eat. 

We find that snacks that fall into the junk food category are in high demand for trading and sharing. So please assist us in managing this by providing healthy snacks for your child. Thank you! Oh, and no soda or caffeine!

Your child can bring their lunch daily (following similar guidelines to the snack section above). Learners have lunch from 13:00-14:00 Monday through Thursday. 

💊 Medication

If your child needs to receive medication, please provide us with a copy of the prescription and instructions for use. 

We cannot give learners medication without a signed note from the family and the doctor, and no learner is allowed to self-medicate.
