The Image of The Child — A workshop with Federica Lentini
Join us at Scuola Fermi for a special event with Federica Lentini (Assistant Head of School of La Scuola International School of San Francisco and Director of Circ) exploring one of the central ideas of the Reggio Emilia approach: the image of the child.
The morning will begin with a talk by Federica, followed by a conversation with Scuola Fermi teachers about how this idea takes shape in everyday school life. The event will conclude with an open Q&A, giving participants the opportunity to reflect, ask questions, and continue the conversation together.
This event is open to educators, families, and anyone interested in the Reggio Emilia approach and in thinking more deeply about how we see children, learning, and the role of the adult in education.
