espanolLas Escuelas del Ave Maria fueron fundadas en Granada, ano 1889, por el sacerdote y pedagogo Andres Manjon. A diferencia del metodo tradicional de ensenanza infantil en aquellos anos, el padre Manjon centraba su pedagogia en la religion catolica, considerando la naturaleza como obra de Dios. En su concepto, el juego, los trabajos manuales y la ensenanza al aire libre formaban buenos cristianos en un ambiente alegre para que se incorporasen posteriormente al mundo laboral. Extendidas rapidamente por Espana y otros paises, las Escuelas del Ave Maria estan consideradas una experiencia pionera de la ensenanza en su epoca y gozaron de un gran prestigio social. En el subsuelo de Almaden se exploto desde la dominacion arabe el yacimiento de mercurio mas grande del mundo, en el que trabajaban en la primera mitad del siglo XX unos 2.500 operarios. La Escuela de Hijos de Obreros habia sido fundada en 1908, pero en 1926, coincidiendo con la proclamacion de la dictadura de Primo de Rivera, se transformo en una escuela manjoniana. Convertida en escuela laica durante la Segunda Republica y la posterior guerra civil, volvio a actuar como escuela del Ave Maria desde 1939 hasta la decada de 1960. Minas de Almaden, al igual que otras grandes empresas mineras e industriales del norte de Espana, ejercio una estrategia paternalista con sus operarios y eligio la ensenanza religiosa como la mas adecuada para la formacion de sus hijos. EnglishAve Maria Schools were founded in Granada in 1889 by the priest and educator Andres Manjon. Unlike the traditional method of infant education in those years, Father Manjon centered pedagogy in the Catholic religion, considering nature as God’s work. In his concept, play, manual labor and outdoor teaching were good Christians in a happy environment so that they would later join the working world. They quickly spread throughout Spain and other countries, Ave Maria Schools are considered a pioneering experience of teaching in their time and enjoyed great social prestige. In the subsoil of Almaden, the largest mercury deposit in the world was exploited from the Arab domination, with 2,500 workers working in the first half of the 20th century. The School of Children of Workers had been founded in 1908, but in 1926, coinciding with the proclamation of the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera, it was transformed into a Manjonian school. Become a secular school during the Second Republic and the subsequent civil war, he returned to act as a school of Ave Maria from 1939 until the 1960s. Minas de Almaden, like other large mining and industrial companies in northern Spain, exercised a paternalistic strategy with its operators and chose religious education as the most appropriate for the formation of their children. |
