Fattoria didattica Res Nova Il Colle
Pernottamento
Following these footsteps... "If I listen I remember but if I do I learn" becomes the credo of the teaching approach chosen to adopt.


With the didactic service it has decided to offer, the Res Nova Il Colle farm becomes a window on the rural reality open to schools, groups and families from spring to autumn, thanks to the variety and seasonality of its proposals. From the philosophy of the American pedagogue John Dewey, who finds in the influence of concrete experiences and in the stimuli provided by the environment in which the individual grows up, the determining aspects for the child's development, the fundamental input to guarantee the excellence of the service.Following in these footsteps... "If I listen I remember, but if I do I learn" becomes the creed of the educational approach chosen to adopt. It will be possible to try one's hand at the industriousness of the farm, coming into contact with a reality that often escapes not only the youngest. Activities/events/courses are also planned for adults on local products: their properties, their traditional processing, their use in traditional local recipes.
