Creating Brighter Futures for Children in Karimunjawa
A community-led foundation providing quality education, English learning and environmental programs to the children and families of Indonesia's Karimunjawa archipelago.
A Shared Dream of Locals and Foreigners Living on the Island
Our community-driven foundation, Yayasan Kejora Karimunjawa, was established in 2021 through a shared dream between local residents and foreigners who chose to make Karimunjawa their home: creating brighter futures through quality education.
Although we come from different backgrounds, we have become one Kejora Family, working together to strengthen education and opportunities for children and communities across the island.
As a nonprofit organization, our work is made possible through donations, partnerships, and the support of Stichting Kejora Karimunjawa in the Netherlands. From our bilingual, nature-based preschool and practical English courses for children and adults, to community projects and fundraising events, every initiative responds directly to the needs of Karimunjawa.
Whether by volunteering, funding a scholarship, or making a donation, everyone is invited to become part of the Kejora Family.
Rooted in nature
Every lesson grows with the island, for a sustainable tomorrow.
As an educational center on Karimunjawa, every Kejora project is deeply connected to nature and sustainability, planting seeds, protecting turtles, restoring mangroves and caring for our beaches together with the next generation.
What we do
Four Educational Programs
SPS Kejora Preschool
A bilingual, nature-based preschool for children aged 3–6, this year home to 70 young learners. Here, children grow through play while developing language, social skills, early math, creativity, and physical abilities in a safe, stimulating, and joyful environment together.
SD Alam Kejora
A bilingual, nature-based primary school for children aged 7–8 that launched this year with 6 students. Following the national curriculum enriched with outdoor learning, project-based activities and hands-on experiences that nurture curiosity, confidence and care for their community and environment.
KLS Language School
Learning English at Kejora is fun, practical and for everyone. Children learn through games, songs and stories, while adults join profession-focused classes that strengthen communication skills for hospitality, tourism and other careers on the island.
Beyond the Classroom
Learning at Kejora reaches far beyond our core programs. Children discover new passions through creative and physical activities, from swim lessons and yoga to dance, music, sports and hands-on crafts, building confidence, curiosity and lifelong skills along the way.
Kejora Library
A Sunday morning for stories, curiosity and community
Our library opens every Sunday from 08.00 – 12.00, welcoming children, families and visitors into a shared space of books, learning materials and quiet reading corners. It is a place where imagination meets community, and where every child can feel at home with a good story.
