Did you know? This Italian city, Reggio Emilia, is the inspiration for Greentrike's approach to early learning!

Greentrike is inspired by many philosophies, but the fundamentals of the Reggio Emilia approach are present in our mission to honor children and champion play. We believe in cultivating the wonder and curiosity of children to promote their independent thinking and exploring, which includes creating learning environments that play an active role in evoking children’s curiosity and creativity and suit children’s interests and developmental stages.

Catherine will visit Reggio Emilia, an Italian city celebrated for its approach to early childhood education.
