At Langelands Efterskole, teaching is not just about books and homework. Pupils also work on practical projects that focus on topics such as food, resources and nature.

One example is the school’s maritime kitchen garden – a wave farm in the sea around Langeland. Here, pupils learn, amongst other things, about the cultivation of blue mussels and seaweed, and about the potential for producing food from the sea.

Langelands Efterskole is the first efterskole in Denmark to have established a maritime food garden.

The school is also a UNESCO Global Goals School and incorporates the Development Goals into its teaching.

Creativity and community

Creativity also plays a central role at Langelands Efterskole. Pupils can express themselves in the workshops, get involved in the community centre and contribute to the Legume Partnership. Here, there is scope for both small and large-scale endeavours – and plenty of warm, welcoming communities.

Part of the South Funen Archipelago Geopark

Langelands Efterskole is a partner in the South Funen Archipelago Geopark. Through various projects, pupils can work with and learn more about the local landscape and the connection between sea and land.
