This is one of the first experiences outside the family circle and our aim is to promote the well-being and integral development of each baby, in close collaboration with families. <br \/>We provide experiences that stimulate all senses, encouraging children to explore, discover and build healthy relationships with others and the world around them. <\/p>\n<p>We believe that the first years of life are essential for future development. Therefore, our educational model is based on fundamental principles that guarantee balanced and harmonious growth. <\/p>\n<h4>Bonding<\/h4>\n<p>More than just providing basic care, we create strong emotional bonds and a safe environment, where each child feels welcomed and confident. A secure emotional base allows the child to develop in a balanced way, stimulating their abilities at all levels and preparing them for full learning. <\/p>\n<h4>Family and School<\/h4>\n<p>At Escola Ave Maria, we believe that the relationship between family and school is essential for children&#8217;s development. Parents are the first educators, and the school must be an ally in this process. <\/p>\n<p>We keep our doors open, allowing moments of proximity in our daily lives. We also strengthen this relationship throughout the year through informal conversations; using the ChildDiary app for ongoing communication; holding individual and general meetings; organisation of parties and events. <\/p>\n<h4>Child Development<\/h4>\n<p>Each child is unique, with their own characteristics and rhythms. We develop individual plans to stimulate all areas of growth, allowing them to discover themself, others and the world around them.<br \/> In each classroom\u00b4s Pedagogical Project (Nursery, Micros and Minis), we work on fundamental areas of development, following key experiences and projects adapted to the school\u2019s annual theme. <\/p>\n<p>Our goal is to provide experiences that encourage autonomy, communication and discovery of the world, helping each child to take their first steps, explore and acquire new learning with safety and joy.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;2_5,3_5&#8243;

Each year, we choose a central theme that guides learning, helping children develop skills, competencies and explore the world around them.<\/p>\n<p>Our educational model is based on four fundamental principles:<\/p>\n<h4>Progressive Autonomy<\/h4>\n<p>At Escola Ave Maria, we promote progressive autonomy from the early years of life, helping each child become responsible and confident in their journey. Teachers encourage self-esteem, self-confidence and the discovery of one&#8217;s own abilities. By encouraging communication and interaction with the group, each child learns to recognise their emotions and better understand their identity.  <\/p>\n<h4>Individuality<\/h4>\n<p>We value the individuality of each child, respecting their pace and stimulating their development in a balanced way.<\/p>\n<p>We support each student in discovering their own journey, promoting social, artistic, cognitive and motor skills. Through a playful and dynamic approach, we encourage curiosity and motivate learning, always with a positive attitude. <\/p>\n<h4>Family and School<\/h4>\n<p>We believe that Family is the pillar of education. Parents involvement and participation are essential to children&#8217;s inclusion, balance and success. <\/p>\n<p>The Little Children and the Infant classrooms are open spaces, where parents can closely monitor the school routine. In the Preparation classrooms, children begin to develop greater autonomy. The close relationship between the School and the Family is established through the ChildDiary app; conversations with the teacher; individual and general meetings; events and parties.  <\/p>\n<h4>Learn and Play<\/h4>\n<p>We believe that playing is essential in children&#8217;s development. More than just a fun activity, it is through play that intelligence, creativity and self-esteem are built. Playing promotes intellectual, moral and emotional development.  <\/p>\n<p>At our School, children play and learn actively, following an annual theme that guides learning experiences. The Preparation classroom creates a bridge between playful childhood learning and the acquisition of more structured knowledge. The introduction to reading and writing follows the Escola Ave Maria Method, making the discovery of words a dynamic and engaging process. Maths also begins through games that stimulate memory, reasoning and imagination.   <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;2_5,3_5&#8243; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221;

This is one of the first experiences outside the family circle and our aim is to promote the well-being and integral development of each baby, in close collaboration with families. <br \/>We provide experiences that stimulate all senses, encouraging children to explore, discover and build healthy relationships with others and the world around them. <\/p>\n<p>We believe that the first years of life are essential for future development. Therefore, our educational model is based on fundamental principles that guarantee balanced and harmonious growth. <\/p>\n<h4>Bonding<\/h4>\n<p>More than just providing basic care, we create strong emotional bonds and a safe environment, where each child feels welcomed and confident. A secure emotional base allows the child to develop in a balanced way, stimulating their abilities at all levels and preparing them for full learning. <\/p>\n<h4>Family and School<\/h4>\n<p>At Escola Ave Maria, we believe that the relationship between family and school is essential for children&#8217;s development. Parents are the first educators, and the school must be an ally in this process. <\/p>\n<p>We keep our doors open, allowing moments of proximity in our daily lives. We also strengthen this relationship throughout the year through informal conversations; using the ChildDiary app for ongoing communication; holding individual and general meetings; organisation of parties and events. <\/p>\n<h4>Child Development<\/h4>\n<p>Each child is unique, with their own characteristics and rhythms. We develop individual plans to stimulate all areas of growth, allowing them to discover themself, others and the world around them.<br \/> In each classroom\u00b4s Pedagogical Project (Nursery, Micros and Minis), we work on fundamental areas of development, following key experiences and projects adapted to the school\u2019s annual theme. <\/p>\n<p>Our goal is to provide experiences that encourage autonomy, communication and discovery of the world, helping each child to take their first steps, explore and acquire new learning with safety and joy.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_accordion open_toggle_text_color=&#8221;#282828&#8243; open_toggle_background_color=&#8221;#efefef&#8221; closed_toggle_background_color=&#8221;#efefef&#8221; toggle_icon=&#8221;&#xe044;||divi||400&#8243; icon_color=&#8221;#2071B5&#8243; use_icon_font_size=&#8221;on&#8221; icon_font_size=&#8221;25px&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Detalhes creche&#8221; module_class=&#8221;oferta-educativa-mobile&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; toggle_text_color=&#8221;#282828&#8243; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||80px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px||||false|false&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;0px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Details&#8221; open=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-transform: uppercase; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 800; margin-bottom: 10px; color: #000;\">INCLUDED CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES:<\/h4>\n<p>\u2022 Personal and Social <br \/>\u2022 Training Expression and Communication <br \/>\u2022 Knowledge of the World <br \/>\u2022 English <br \/>\u2022 Music <br \/>\u2022 Physical-Motor Expression<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-transform: uppercase; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 800; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 30px; color: #000;\">OUR NURSERY CLASSROOMS<\/h4>\n<p>\u2022 Baby Nursery <br \/>\u2022 Micros <br \/>\u2022 Minis<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Preschool&#8221; image=&#8221;https:\/\/escola-avemaria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/oferta-educativa-wide_0004_46.jpg&#8221; image_icon_width=&#8221;90%&#8221; disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Pre-escolar&#8221; module_id=&#8221;pre-escolar&#8221; module_class=&#8221;oferta-educativa-mobile&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Bungee|700||on|||||&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#282828&#8243; header_font_size=&#8221;22px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; body_font=&#8221;Heebo||||||||&#8221; body_text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; body_text_color=&#8221;#282828&#8243; body_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#F9ECC2&#8243; image_icon_custom_margin=&#8221;-40px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||40px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px; font-weight: 600;\">We grow and develop together new skills and competence.<\/p>\n<p>Preschool welcomes children from 3 years old until the beginning of primary school, being a strategic stage in their educational journey.<\/p>\n<p>We follow the Curricular Guidelines for Early Childhood Education, and each teacher, together with the team, adapts the curriculum to the needs of each group. Each year, we choose a central theme that guides learning, helping children develop skills, competencies and explore the world around them.<\/p>\n<p>Our educational model is based on four fundamental principles:<\/p>\n<h4>Progressive Autonomy<\/h4>\n<p>At Escola Ave Maria, we promote progressive autonomy from the early years of life, helping each child become responsible and confident in their journey. Teachers encourage self-esteem, self-confidence and the discovery of one&#8217;s own abilities. By encouraging communication and interaction with the group, each child learns to recognise their emotions and better understand their identity.  <\/p>\n<h4>Individuality<\/h4>\n<p>We value the individuality of each child, respecting their pace and stimulating their development in a balanced way.<\/p>\n<p>We support each student in discovering their own journey, promoting social, artistic, cognitive and motor skills. Through a playful and dynamic approach, we encourage curiosity and motivate learning, always with a positive attitude. <\/p>\n<h4>Family and School<\/h4>\n<p>We believe that Family is the pillar of education. Parents involvement and participation are essential to children&#8217;s inclusion, balance and success. <\/p>\n<p>The Little Children and the Infant classrooms are open spaces, where parents can closely monitor the school routine. In the Preparation classrooms, children begin to develop greater autonomy. The close relationship between the School and the Family is established through the ChildDiary app; conversations with the teacher; individual and general meetings; events and parties.  <\/p>\n<h4>Learn and Play<\/h4>\n<p>We believe that playing is essential in children&#8217;s development. More than just a fun activity, it is through play that intelligence, creativity and self-esteem are built. Playing promotes intellectual, moral and emotional development.  <\/p>\n<p>At our School, children play and learn actively, following an annual theme that guides learning experiences. The Preparation classroom creates a bridge between playful childhood learning and the acquisition of more structured knowledge. The introduction to reading and writing follows the Escola Ave Maria Method, making the discovery of words a dynamic and engaging process. Maths also begins through games that stimulate memory, reasoning and imagination.   <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_accordion open_toggle_text_color=&#8221;#282828&#8243; open_toggle_background_color=&#8221;#EFCBC9&#8243; closed_toggle_background_color=&#8221;#EFCBC9&#8243; toggle_icon=&#8221;&#xe044;||divi||400&#8243; icon_color=&#8221;#004E7F&#8221; use_icon_font_size=&#8221;on&#8221; icon_font_size=&#8221;25px&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Detalhes pre-escolar&#8221; module_class=&#8221;oferta-educativa-mobile&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; toggle_text_color=&#8221;#282828&#8243; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||80px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px||||false|false&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;0px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;Details&#8221; open=&#8221;on&#8221; open_toggle_background_color=&#8221;#F9ECC2&#8243; closed_toggle_background_color=&#8221;#F9ECC2&#8243; icon_color=&#8221;#FBAB18&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#F9ECC2&#8243; background_enable_color=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-transform: uppercase; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 800; margin-bottom: 10px; color: #000;\">INCLUDED CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES:<\/h4>\n<p>\u2022 Personal and Social Training<br data-start=\"27\" data-end=\"30\">\u2022 Expression and Communication<br data-start=\"55\" data-end=\"58\">\u2022 Knowledge of the World<br data-start=\"81\" data-end=\"84\">\u2022 English<br data-start=\"92\" data-end=\"95\">\u2022 Music<br data-start=\"114\" data-end=\"117\">\u2022 Physical-Motor Expression<br data-start=\"142\" data-end=\"145\">\u2022 ICT \u2013 Information and Communication Technologies<br data-start=\"186\" data-end=\"189\">\u2022 Catholic Moral and Religious Education<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-transform: uppercase; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 800; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 30px; color: #000;\">OUR PRESCHOOL CLASSROOMS<\/h4>\n<p>\u2022 Little Children<br \/>\u2022 Infants<br \/>\u2022 Preparation<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Primary School&#8221; image=&#8221;https:\/\/escola-avemaria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/eam-wide-standard-oferta-educativa-1ciclo.jpg&#8221; image_icon_width=&#8221;90%&#8221; disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;1\u00ba ciclo&#8221; module_id=&#8221;primeiro-ciclo&#8221; module_class=&#8221;oferta-educativa-mobile&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Bungee|700||on|||||&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#282828&#8243; header_font_size=&#8221;22px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; body_font=&#8221;Heebo||||||||&#8221; body_text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; body_text_color=&#8221;#282828&#8243; body_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#efefef&#8221; image_icon_custom_margin=&#8221;-40px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||40px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px; font-weight: 600;\">I discover, question and prepare myself to distinguish myself in the future.<\/p>\n<p>In Primary School we promote the global and harmonious development of each student, enhancing their autonomy, creativity, responsibility and respect for others.<\/p>\n<p>Through ongoing projects that explore children&#8217;s interests, skills and abilities, primary works on oral and written expression, logical-mathematical reasoning and critical reflection.
