DEPARTMENT OF PEDAGOGICAL INNOVATION

ECO-SCHOOL

Ecoescuela Santa Gema is not just a project—it’s an educational journey where nature becomes our greatest teacher. We embark on a hands-on learning adventure, designing a space where theory meets the earth, and the classroom extends into the school garden.

Our goal is to cultivate a generation of students who are aware of and committed to the environment. Through direct contact with nature, students discover the secrets of sustainable agriculture, understand the importance of every living being, and learn to value the planet’s resources.

In our garden, seeds become living lessons about ecological cycles and the impact of our actions. Every plant grown is a step toward understanding how our daily decisions affect the balance of our planet.

The Eco-School is a laboratory of experiences where students—especially the brave members of the Environmental Committee—become scientists, gardeners, and guardians of the environment and sustainability. Together, we explore creative solutions to environmental challenges, fostering critical thinking and social responsibility.

Join us in this exciting project, where every day is an opportunity to learn, grow, and care for our shared home: Earth.
