Olde Vetche

Olde Vechte Foundation was conceived as an initiative of a group of people, who in 1966 identified a great need for learning that is not provided by the established educational system. Society keeps on changing over the years, becoming more and more intercultural. Still, the need of an “out of the school system” education stays around.

The Foundation’s mission is to create a learning environment out of love, care and cooperation for everyone; especially for people whose needs cannot be met by formal education methods. Modern approaches of non-formal learning are used in all the activities of the Foundation. Kinaesthetic, auditory and visual senses are involved, bringing about learning by experiencing and enabling the full participation of the trainees.
