Inspired by Legacy
Our Philosophy
Shaheen Desert Program is a committment to land based education wherein children learn about date palm trees and ripening dates, explore insects under the shade of the Ghaf Tree and dig adventures across desert dunes. It also includes spaces such as beaches, parks, and mountains. Yet, it asks us to identify these spaces under a dominant desert philosophy; a philosophy embedded in action and quest for knowledge leading the child to realize his/her own potential through the natural wonders of the UAE.
