Organisation Description
The Mães D’Água School Group is located in Amadora, in the district of Lisbon, Portugal.
This group encompasses education levels ranging from kindergarten to secondary school, serving approximately 930 students from 32 different nationalities, including 15% who belong to the Roma community.
Our Annual Activities Plan is guided by the theme of Citizenship and Sustainability, inspiring students to adopt healthy and sustainable practices, particularly those related to environmental preservation. To support this mission, we maintain pedagogical gardens where students engage in hands-on learning through organic farming practices.
At the secondary level, we offer professional courses in Commercial Technician and Sports Technician, equipping students with practical skills for their future careers.
The school operates in a socioeconomically disadvantaged area of Lisbon, with many families facing economic challenges and low levels of education. Despite these obstacles, our dedicated team of 110 teachers, 41 staff members, 4 student and family support technicians, and 1 psychologist works tirelessly to provide high-quality education and support to our community.
By fostering diversity, inclusivity, and sustainability, the Mães D’Água School Group aims to empower students to thrive academically, socially, and personally.
