What do we offer?
ERASMUS+ HOSTING GREECE: Your Strategic Partner for School Excellence
At JAE Academy (OID: E10413532), we specialize in hosting school groups and educational delegations, providing a safe, inspiring, and fully managed environment for youth development. Our Eco Campus in the Peloponnese serves as a premium hub for Erasmus+ mobilities (KA1 & KA2), combining modern athletic facilities with Greece’s profound cultural heritage.
Full-Service Gastronomy & Mediterranean Nutrition We believe that pedagogical performance starts with a balanced diet. To ensure the highest quality, we manage 100% of the catering in-house. Our team provides fresh, locally sourced Mediterranean meals tailored to the needs of active students and international groups. We handle everything from dietary requirements to cultural preferences, ensuring a stress-free "home-away-from-home" culinary experience.
Elite Location & Specialized Educational Facilities Strategically located just 100 meters from the vibrant Kourouta Beach, our campus offers a unique blend of sea, sport, and safety. Our facilities are designed for Non-Formal Learning and physical activity:
-
Private On-Site Courts: A dedicated basketball and multi-sport court for team building and leadership workshops.
-
Coastal Sports Hub: Direct access to the coast for beach volleyball, tennis, and marine biology activities.
-
STEM & Nature: Opportunities for environmental education and horseback riding through the Greek landscape.
-
The Cradle of the Olympics: Immediate proximity to Ancient Olympia, offering students the chance to experience the history of the Olympic Torch and ancient values through VR and guided visits.
Excellent in Youth Sports, Culture & Educations.
JAE Academy Greece is a non‑profit association founded in 2016 near Ancient Olympia, dedicated to inspiring young people through sports, culture, and education; our Olympic Immersion Program (2026–2027) offers schools and Erasmus+ partners a unique opportunity to combine athletic youth training, cultural heritage experiences, and innovative learning in a safe environment just 2 km from Kourouta Beach, with full board accommodation, supervised group activities, and direct flight access via Araxos Airport that reduces transfer times to under an hour, making our program the ideal choice for international school trips, camps, and KA2 collaborations across Europe.
At JAE Academy, we believe every school trip should be more than travel — it should be a journey of growth; by combining sports, culture, and education in the heart of Greece, we create safe, inspiring, and unforgettable experiences that connect students to the Olympic spirit, local traditions, and international friendships, ensuring lasting impact for youth groups and Erasmus+ partners alike.
