The teacher teaches tolerance and wisdom as well as spelling and mathematics. He conducts its program with determination. He strives to support students to give them confidence and rise higher. Through the eyes of a former student, now director, emerges a timeless school where discipline is combined with good humor, a school where freedom begins with respect for the other. A school that belongs to all and universal field of childhood.
