🔷 Activity Details
Description
Semente Compostela forms part of a non-profit social initiative, being a place of transformative pedagogy that understands the school as an integral part of society; we aim to serve the interests of the people by ensuring a democratic teaching and learning process and by making it possible for children to be free and critical.
Semente is a kindergarten and primary school based on the principles of coeducation, secularism, assemblyism, interaction with nature, respect to children’s self-regulation, gender equality and interculturality.
At the moment, there are 30 kids in Kindergarten school and 52 kids in Primary School. We are 7 educators total, 4 in Primary School and 3 in Kindergarten.
