KNOTs - or Knowledge: New Old Twists - is a social enterprise dedicated to promoting engaging and meaningful learning experiences for children, regardless of location. They do this through their Vanishing Classroom, which reintroduces outdoor and traditional learning methods to 21st-century students, and they encourage the utilisation of ecological ecosystems and outdoor environments. Their goal is to offer kids an immersive, hands-on education that goes beyond simply transferring knowledge, instead, they aim to create platforms that encourage skill application and practice. We speak to the co-founders of KNOTS, Johleen Koh and Nor Shidawati Abdul Rasid to find out more.
