Open air schools were part of a broader health movement in Europe during the early 20th century. At the time, tuberculosis was a major public health concern, and fresh air and sunlight were believed to be powerful remedies. Educators and doctors collaborated to design schools where children could learn outdoors, often in forests or specially built open-air classrooms.

The idea wasn’t just medical, it was social. Reformers argued that children in crowded, industrial cities needed exposure to nature for both physical and mental well-being. These schools emphasized exercise, nutrition, and rest alongside traditional lessons, blending education with health care. They became especially popular in Germany, the Netherlands, and later spread to other parts of Europe.

By the 1950s, open air schools had become symbols of progressive education. In places like the Netherlands, they reflected a belief that learning should nurture the whole child, not just the mind. While modern medicine eventually reduced the urgency of such schools, their legacy lives on in today’s emphasis on outdoor learning, school gardens, and holistic approaches to education.
