About VFS

We are a bilingual, Waldorf-inspired homeschool founded in 2020 in the beautiful Monferrato region of Northern Italy.

Why Join VFS?

Where to begin?! While we are nestled in the charming Monferrato region, with rolling hills, vineyards, and the Alps in the distance, you will experience is a place where life moves at a natural rhythm, yet is conveniently located just 1 to 1.5 hours from Torino, Milano, the Alps, and the sea.

Beyond the location, our expansive campus includes a large meadow, a forest, yurts, and a physical building, allowing you to integrate nature into the curriculum in meaningful ways. As a young and evolving homeschool, this is truly a place where your ideas can come to life. If you have the spirit and drive, you’ll have the autonomy and support to shape your students' educational journey in a way that aligns with both Waldorf principles and your own creative vision.

Lastly, you will be embraced by a culturally diverse community who is incredibly engaged and supportive of our staff and invested in the success of our program.

If you’re looking for an experience that blends rural tranquility, global community, and professional freedom, we’d love to hear from you!
