Bike-a-thon 2019

Escola Waldorf a Oliveira
Expansion Project in motion!

versão portuguesa

Every euro you donate will help us reach our goal to fund part of our new school in Figueira  —

The seed that was planted in 2013 has finally sprouted and taken form. Thanks in part to your donations for our official launch of the Expansion Project campaign and Bike-a-thon event in 2018, we were able to achieve a big step forward.

On September 16, 2019, Escola Waldorf a Oliveira inaugurated our branch "Oliveira de Vila" in Vila de Bispo to continue Waldorf pedagogy to the 7th grade at our school. The branch is planned as a temporary solution for additional space while the design and construction project is set in motion for our expansion of Escola Waldorf a Oliveira in Figueria.

Now we continue our quest with Bike-a-thon 2019!!! We are once again cycling off-road to capture your attention and support for our efforts to make our new school in Figueira a reality.

Please support Bike-a-thon 2019 to help us fund Phase I Design & Construction in Figueira:

  • architectural design and consulting
  • construction drawings and specifications
  • project management, and
  • permitting costs
  • construction costs

All of the school's operation costs are carried by the parents, our fundraising efforts, and generous donations. We do not receive subsidies or funding from the Portuguese Government. By donating to this campaign, you will help us be one step closer to launching the Expansion Project for Escola Waldorf a Oliveira!!

Who we are...              

Escola Waldorf a Oliveira is based on Waldorf education, a pedagogy that instills the child’s awakening to a spontaneous desire to learn, a spirit of investigation, and a disposition for creative activity. 

We currently function as an elementary school that offers the first and second Portuguese educational cycles, which includes grades 1 through 6, and as of this year the arrival of grade 7!  In addition to teaching the Portuguese language, mathematics, natural sciences, geography, history, and drawing, we also offer painting, music, handicrafts (wool, wood, beeswax, etc.), German and English languages, physical education, eurythmy, and dramatic expression, among others, as an integral part of the curriculum.

Our Pioneers

We extend our sincere gratitude to the pioneers of Escola Waldorf a Oliveira, including our first class of 2008. Those that came before us manifested a collective dream, and we plan to forge ahead with a creative vision for growth as our contribution for the continuation of Waldorf pedagogy in Portugal.

Where the Dream Began

Our first class of 2008 began with nine, bright-eyed children of the first grade and a group of enthusiastic founding parents that solidified a collective dream to form the first state-recognized Waldorf primary school in Portugal. Since 2008, Escola Waldorf a Oliveira has been transformed from an abandoned school building consisting of one bleak classroom into six vibrant learning spaces.

From 2013 to 2015 prefabricated-metal containers were purchased by the school for three consecutive years and placed on foundations constructed by our school community. These containers were intended as a short-term, cost-effective solution.

 

Like an Open Book

As nature gives us the change of the seasons, the students are taught the subject material in cycles that are active and dormant, known as blocks, so that as the material is received during the lesson, it also has time to settle within them.

In the Waldorf pedagogy, the students advance to the next grade along with their teachers until the eighth grade. This movement deepens the connection between the teacher and the students, as well as among classmates, giving insights to better understand the other, while on the journey of finding themselves.

Nature's seasons bring various traditions and cultural celebrations to life at the school with themes that inspire the rhythm of the year. The parents play an essential role in shaping a supportive community environment.

Faculty

A teacher must have a knowledge of humanity that will imbue life and spirit into what is otherwise dead knowledge, and at the same time, have an enthusiasm arising from a really free and openminded concept of what life actually is today.
—Rudolf Steiner

Vision to Expand Our Horizons

In 2013, the founding parents of Escola Waldorf a Oliveira began the movement to expand our pedagogical scope to include the third cycle (grades 7 to 9). On September 16, 2019, Escola Waldorf a Oliveira embarked on this journey with the inauguration of our branch "Oliveira de Vila!" in Vila de Bispo for our 6th and 7th grade students. 

A renovation design and construction of our school in Figueria is currently under planning stages with our architect. The Escola Waldorf a Oliveira Expansion Project is envisioned with a phased implementation approach: Architectural Design & Project Management; Phase I Renovation and Construction; Phase II Construction.

Your Support is Vital

Sustainability is at the core of this expansion project for Escola Waldorf a Oliveira. To lift this expansion project off the ground and put it into motion, we will have to procure and combine several funding sources, as well as potential investors. If you feel inspired by our initiative, we ask you to please, become part of our solution. Your support is vital to the future of this expansion project.

This expansion plan was created from a need to improve our current conditions with a design to achieve ample space in classrooms for teaching and rhythmic movement from the 1st to 8th grades. 

We are living a dream that has been solidified through our 10 year experience as Escola Waldorf a Oliveira. We are committed to our vision of expanding this horizon to meet the needs of our students and to give them the conditions they deserve.

Escola Waldorf a Oliveira 
Projeto de expansão em movimento!

English Version

Cada euro que doar ajudar-nos-á a alcançar a nossa meta de financiar parte da nossa nova escola na Figueira —

A semente plantada em 2013 finalmente brotou e tomou forma. Graças em parte às vossas doações no lançamento oficial da campanha do Projeto de Expansão e do evento Bike-a-thon em 2018, conseguimos dar um grande passo em frente.

A 16 de Setembro de 2019, a Escola Waldorf a Oliveira inaugurou o espaço "Oliveira de Vila" em Vila de Bispo para prelongar a pedagogia Waldorf até ao 7º ano na nossa escola. Este espaço foi planeado como uma solução temporária de espaço adicional, enquanto o projeto e a construção são acionados para a expansão da Escola Waldorf a Oliveira na Figueira.

Com a edição do Bike-a-thon 2019, mais uma vez pedalamos estrada fora para chamar a sua atenção e apoio aos nossos esforços para tornar a nossa nova escola na Figueira uma realidade.

Apoie o Bike-a-thon 2019 para nos ajudar a financiar a Fase I (Design e Construção) na Figueira:

  • projeto arquitetônico e consultoria
  • desenhos e especificações de construção
  • gestão de projeto, e
  • custos de licenciamento
  • custos de construção

Todos os custos de operação da escola são realizados pelos pais, os nossos esforços de angariação de fundos e generosas doações. Não recebemos subsídios ou financiamento do Governo Português. Ao doar para este evento, estará a ajudar-nos a estar um passo mais perto de lançar o Projeto de Expansão da Escola Waldorf a Oliveira!!

Quem nós somos...

A Escola Waldorf a Oliveira baseia-se na educação Waldorf, uma pedagogia que pretende incutir o despertar da criança para o desejo espontâneo de aprender, o espírito de pesquisa e a disposição para a atividade criativa.

Funcionamos como uma escola básica que oferece o 1º e o 2º ciclo educativo português, que inclui turmas do 1º ao 6º ano, e neste ano letivo a abertura do 7º ano. Além de ensinar língua Portuguesa, matemática, ciências da natureza, geografia, história, e desenho de forma, também oferecemos como parte integrante do currículo pintura, música, artesanato (lã, madeira, cera de abelha, etc.), línguas Inglesa e Alemã, educação física, euritmia, expressão dramática, entre outros.

Os nossos pioneiros

Agradecemos sinceramente aos pioneiros da Escola Waldorf a Oliveira, incluíndo a nossa primeira classe de 2008. Aqueles que vieram antes de nós manifestaram um sonho coletivo e planeamos prosseguir com uma visão criativa de crescimento, sendo esse o nosso contributo para a continuação da pedagogia Waldorf em Portugal.

Quando o sonho começou

A nossa primeira turma de 2008 começou com nove crianças da primeira classe e de olhos brilhantes e um grupo de pais fundadores entusiasmados que solidificaram o sonho coletivo de formar a primeira escola primária Waldorf reconhecida pelo estado em Portugal. Desde 2008 que a Escola Waldorf a Oliveira foi transformada de um prédio escolar abandonado, constituído por uma sala de aula sombria, em seis espaços de aprendizagem vibrantes.

Entre 2013 e 2015, durante os 3 anos consecutivos, foram comprados contentores de metal pré-fabricados, colocado em fundações construídas pela comunidade escolar. Esses contentores foram concebidos como uma solução econômica e a curto prazo.

Como um livro aberto

À medida que a natureza nos presenteia com a mudança das estações, os alunos aprendem a matéria de forma a refletir os ciclos naturais que estão ativos e adormecidos, conhecidos como épocas, de forma a que, assim que o material é recebido durante a aula, tem também tempo para se estabelecer dentro deles.

Na pedagogia Waldorf, os alunos avançam para o ano seguinte com os seus professores até ao oitavo ano. Este movimento aprofunda a conexão entre o professor e os alunos, bem como entre os colegas de turma, dando uma visão para entender melhor o outro, enquanto trilham o caminho para se encontrar.

As estações do ano trazem várias tradições e celebrações culturais à vida na escola com temas que inspiram o ritmo do ano. Os pais desempenham um papel essencial na modelagem de um ambiente comunitário de suporte.

Estrutura Escolar

Um professor deve ter uma compreensão sobre a humanidade que inspirará vida e espírito no que de outra forma seria conhecimento sem vida e, ao mesmo tempo, ter um entusiasmo decorrente de uma concepção realmente livre e aberta do que a vida é atualmente.
—Rudolf Steiner

Visão para expandir horizontes & parâmetros espaciais do projecto

Em 2013, os pais fundadores da Escola Waldorf a Oliveira iniciaram o movimento para expandir o nosso âmbito pedagógico de forma a incluir o terceiro ciclo (7º ao 9º ano). A 16 de Setembro de 2019, a Escola Waldorf a Oliveira inaugurou o espaço "Oliveira de Vila" em Vila de Bispo para os alunos do 6º e 7º ano.

O projeto de renovação e construção da escola da Figueira encontra-se neste momento na fase de planeamento, junto do nosso arquiteto. O projeto de expansão da Escola Waldorf a Oliveira é visionado com uma abordagem de implementação por etapas: Projecto de Arquitectura e Gestão do Projeto, Construção Fases I e II.

O seu apoio é vital

A sustentabilidade está no centro desta expansão da Escola Waldorf a Oliveira. Para concretizar este projeto de expansão e colocá-lo em ação, teremos que adquirir e combinar várias fontes de financiamento, bem como potenciais investidores. Se se sentir inspirado por esta iniciativa, pedimos que se torne parte da nossa solução. O seu apoio é vital para o futuro deste projeto de expansão.

Este plano de expansão foi criado a partir da necessidade de melhorar as condições atuais, com um projeto para obter espaço amplo nas salas de aula para o ensino e movimento rítmico, desde o 1º ao 8º ano.

Estamos a viver um sonho que se solidificou através dos 10 anos de experiência do que é a Escola Waldorf a Oliveira. Estamos comprometidos com a visão de expandir este horizonte para responder às necessidades de nossos alunos e dar-lhes as condições que eles merecem.
