The mission of the Pontis Arboretum is to find a balance between natural harmony and the workplace. To that end, diverse species will be planted, to increase the arboretum’s resilience and sustainability.

The proximity with such a rich environment will encourage students to discover and respect nature, and thus, to create a responsible community.

Our long-term goal is to adapt the school’s landscape to create a more resilient and developed garden. We will protect the trees by making people care about them. This will raise awareness and preserve biodiversity while making something beautiful. We want to improve students’ and staff’s happiness and well-being with an attractive garden. We believe that this is a realistic goal.

The vision of the Pontis Arboretum is to create bridges between people and nature in order to provide a place of beauty and peace, where exchange, well-being and environmental respect are the keywords for a better future.
