Our Partner Network
GroVerdi is an organic farm in Gaula and provides a dedicated piece of land for Campus da Terra, where children can actively engage in hands-on farm work and animal care. This partnership enriches our students’ education by offering practical agricultural experiences that foster a deeper connection to nature and promote sustainable practices.
GroVerdi’s strong commitment to sustainability aligns seamlessly with our educational values, creating a unique opportunity for students to learn and grow in an eco-friendly environment.
Our partnership with Movimento Educação Livre (MEL) brings valuable legal support to our community. As an organization devoted to educational freedom, MEL provides comprehensive legal assistance to our parents, ensuring that our practices comply with all relevant laws and regulations. Their expertise in education law helps us create a secure and legally sound environment for our students. This collaboration underscores our commitment to offering a well-rounded and legally protected learning experience for all children at Campus da Terra.
