Informazione generale
CREANDO is an inspiring school for children from 3 to 6 years old located in the beautiful town of Samaipata, Bolivia - right where the Andes meet the Amazon.
The school is inclusive and currently supports two children with special needs.
Based on the philosophy of Pedagooogy 3000, it promotes the development of children in their 7 dimensions (petals) of development in a complete, harmonious and articulated way.
-
During the mornings there are moments to run, move, get to know the body and release energy (BLUE PETAL),
-
....as well as moments to learn about our world through fun and dynamic projects (YELLOW PETAL).
-
In drawing, art, body language, dance and ceramics, we let our creativity, imagination and creative potential go wild (WHITE PETAL).
-
We cook, we build, we produce (RED PETAL)
-
...and in the garden we learn and care about the plants, the bugs, the earth and the water while we produce food and natural medicine (GREEN PETAL).
-
In the day-to-day we talk, share and accept that we are all different and that those differences are enriching and part of our greater perfection. Values are strengthened through workshops, puppets shows, stories and reflection, and especially of concrete experiences of living together harmoniously (PINK PETAL).
-
We also connect with our hearts, gratitude and self-knowledge in very special moments during the day (VIOLET PETAL).
2018 was a year of success! And this is why in 2019 we are already welcoming more children into our school, for which we need to be prepared (with more tables, chairs, material, better equipped indoor and outdoor places). We need funds to make it possible, and so we ask for your help.
Descrizione del progetto. Caratteristiche, punti di forza e peculiarità.
The spirit of our school is:
-
LOVE AND PATIENCE as a strong foundation for all we do, to empower the kids and also to set limits when necessary. Actions and teaching based in love and patience ensure that the children feel genuinally LOVED.
-
Education is active and FUN. The teachers, activities and materials offer a way to get there.
-
By paying equal attention to all 7 dimensions of human development (7 PETALS), our children expand their intelligence and their knowldedge while also learning to be sensitive, creative, dynamic, productive, respectful, peaceful and ecologically conscious.
-
VALUES are streghten every day: solidarity, honesty, respect, peace, love, punctuality, and generosity, among others. We analyze the importance of these values through puppets, stories, examples, and mostly by SETTING AN EXAMPLE. This is why teachers and parents also attend workshops and reflect on our behavior and interactions.
-
We value difference. Everyone is different, and that is where the great potential lies in each child. Teachers and students discover those differences and specialities and enhance them! Education is customized.
We help our kids be creative, sensitive, respectful and conscious about others. Simultanously, they develop their intelligence, gifts and talents so they can live in today's world, positively contributing to society while feeling comfortable in facing challenges.
The results these past two years: Our children's development is mind-blowing!
Even though our school is small, we intend to make it grow so that more children in Samaipata can benefit. You can contribute to make it possible!
Motivazione e a chi si dirige il progetto
In Samaipata, there exist local (state-run) schools, but mostly they use a very traditional teaching model where students don't have the chance to explore their potential or foster their creativity. Conventional classrooms are often crowded with 30 to 40 students per teacher and so teaching is more focused on ensuring obedience than inspiring students to learn. Our goal is to offer another model of teaching and learning, so local Bolivian families can see another way of doing education.
CREANDO is open to all families, parents and children who want an education that will let them be empowered in life, based on strong values, knowledge and developing individual strengths.
And all this, no matter the socio-economic, physical or cognitive circumstances of children:
- We offer half-scholarships for children who come from low-income families.
- We accept and integrate children with special needs, offering extra professional assitance to help them adapt, learn and feel happy just like the other children.
- Education is customized, and in weekly meetings, teachers find the way to help children in their difficulties and enhance their potentials.
Everyone is different, and we love it!
CREANDO was founded - and is led - by three mothers of small children (two of those are mothers of kids with special needs). Our training is in the educational model of PEDAGOOOGIA 3000.
Our wonderful team includes...
- Carolina Torrez, Legal representative.
- Mae Pardo, Director, english teacher - teacher 3000
- Mayer Chavez, Main teacher - expert in pedagogy and primary school
- Daniela Villaseca, Main teacher - facilitator in Pedagogy 3000
- Lis Moro - Art teacher, ceramist.
- Giulia Pasquali - Psychologist, yoga teacher
All of our teachers have training and experience in education. And the most important thing: they have a genuine interest in working to provide the type of education we dream of. Their modeling of inspiration, love and creativity is what sets the standard for our school.
Also, the parents show a strong commitment with the school, because they can see the benefits for their children. Our team, directors, teachers and parents are a strong basis for this project to continue, evolve and become self-sustainable.
At the moment we are renting a large casona, or traditional house, near the central plaza in Samaipata. While the space celebrates local and historic patrimony, it is also big enough in terms of indoor space for teaching, outdoor learning and physical movement. While we have the basics in terms of space, our limited resources to date have meant we could not create the type of decoration, or provide the type of materials that create the inspiring environment that align with our core objectives. Also, with the increased number of children signed up for 2019, we need more tables, chairs and materials to welcome them!
Help us transform our school!
Impegno sociale
Educativo
We believe changing education is the first step towards improving our world.
When one starts the journey of establishing a new school, it's easy to see the challenges mostly in adults. We need to set the example in order to teach our kids. That's why getting involved in an educational project is like looking at a mirror. Adults and children, altogether need to change for the better, if we want a better world.
In CREANDO, we want to put into practice an education for an elevated consciousness. As adults, we set a critical example for our children - as teachers, parents and directors. We want to broaden the circle of families involved and have more local families from Samaipata come into contact with our school. More children in Samaipata can benefit, and our experience can be shared with others to demonstrate this new model of learning and growing.
Parents and teachers have the most important jobs in the whole world.
CREANDO is a place where we value the importance and the effort of parents and teachers to explore, discover, and put into practice tools that allow us to each realize our greatest potential every day - ultimately helping our children to reach their potential as well.
