Educational Project
|
The aim of Saint Joan of Lestonnac (1556-1640), founder of the Society of Mary (Bordeaux 1607), is to educate young women, "offering them a hand", and through this action, influencing families and the transformation of society.
Joan of Lestonnac's educational intuition has been reflected and realized throughout history in various ways.
Today, four centuries later, we boast an Educational Project that combines tradition and novelty to continue "offering people a hand in life".
From the Christian point of view of the person and of life, the Society of Mary has created its own educational proposal, which emphasises a range of elements that define it and give it value:
In the schools of the Society of Mary, education is offered as a service through educators who take the role of witnesses, with their word and their life, of the values and principles in which they want to educate.
