“Nothing happens until something moves.” Albert Einstein
“Filasez” (Romansh for “self-runner” or “self-driven”) stands for the child’s inner power to develop and grow, supported by trust and accompanied by adults and their social environment.
Filasez is an independent, forward-looking educational initiative in Winterthur (CH). Launched in August 2020 with the kindergarten and the goal of covering the entire period of compulsory schooling, the expansion to the primary level followed in the 2021/22 school year.
Trailblazing GmbH has been by the initiative’s side from the very first thought. We were able to contribute our knowledge and experience in a wonderful partnership with the founders.
