São Martinho Day

São Martinho Day

By Ms. Tatiana, EC Teacher

On November 11th, we joined the Portuguese tradition of celebrating S. Martinho’s Day in Early Childhood.

Our festivities began with a morning snack of seasonal fruits, such as pomegranate and persimmon, allowing us to enjoy the tastes of autumn. In the afternoon, teachers delighted the children with a live performance of S. Martinho’s legend, bringing the timeless story of kindness and compassion to life.

Following tradition, we gathered for a picnic outdoors with the Early Childhood classes, enjoying a delicious cake under the warm sunshine of the “Summer of S. Martinho.” It was a beautiful day, celebrating the values of generosity and warmth that S. Martinho’s story represents.
