Our School is a place of learning and experiences. This characteristic is not restricted to working with children – who are our greatest commitment – but to everyone who frequents here.
In History, 1st graders analyzed that, through simple situations of affectivity of the family routine, it is possible to perceive different family structures of which they are part, realizing how affective relationships allow the construction of family history.
The understanding of those who make up a family does not need to be the same: there is no need to develop the same activities, think in a common way or maintain the same routine.
The construction of a family identity in space and time is of great importance and, thus, the child begins to locate a reference through the family, which supports his or hers maturity development, and, over time, when he/she remembers of situations experienced in the family when they were a minor.
Finally, value the family experiences built day by day and not what is offered to children materially. It is important to actually live the family and be with the children completely, living with them daily and understanding the relationships and how they contribute to understanding the different family contexts and the different family structures, based on the affective relationships built daily, reaffirm our commitment: our children, our families… the greatest treasure of the Green Book
