Visita a la Hintta School i a la Hintta Daycare Centre Avui hem visitat la Hintta School, una escola de primària (de 1r a 6è) que destaca per la seva aposta per l’art, la metodologia STEAM, l’emprenedoria i una visió de
l’educació basada en la learning community, la participació de l’alumnat i la col·laboració.
Durant la visita, l’equip del centre ens ha presentat el seu programa educatiu, els objectius de l’escola i el seu currículum, posant en valor la gran flexibilitat de què disposa el professorat per desenvolupar-lo. Un dels pilars del centre és el TRUST (confiança), tant en els mestres com en l’alumnat, com a base del procés educatiu.
Hem pogut veure com integren la metodologia STEAM amb projectes d’emprenedoria real, com ara la creació de joies, on l’alumnat dissenya, produeix i ven productes reals a clients reals, desenvolupant competències creatives, socials i econòmiques.
Un altre aspecte destacable del centre és la importància que donen a la participació activa de l’alumnat, el treball col·laboratiu i la construcció d’una learning community, on mestres i alumnes aprenen conjuntament i comparteixen responsabilitats.
A més, també hem visitat la Hintta Daycare Centre, un centre d’educació infantil que ens ha sorprès especialment pel seu ampli horari d’atenció, de les 5 del matí fins a les 22.30 h, sempre que les famílies ho necessitin.
En aquest centre, els infants treballen des de ben petits amb una clara orientació STEAM, fomentant el problem solving, els crafts, l’ús de Bee-Bots i altres recursos educatius. L’aprenentatge es basa en explorar, dissenyar i desenvolupar les pròpies idees, aprenent a través de l’experiència directa (learning by doing), i entenent els errors com una part natural del procés d’aprenentatge.
La directora de la Hintta School ha compartit reflexions molt inspiradores, com ara: “It is not the teachers’ choices but the students’ rights” i “We should teach students how society works.”
Abans de marxar, hem pogut visitar les aules dels més petits, tancant una jornada
que ha estat especialment inspiradora.

Visit to Hintta School and Hintta Daycare Centre Today, we visited Hintta School, a primary school (from 1st to 6th grade) that stands out for its strong focus on art education, STEAM methodology,
entrepreneurship, and its vision of education as a learning community, strongly based on student participation and collaboration.
During the visit, the school staff presented their educational programme, the school’s goals, and their curriculum, highlighting the high level of flexibility teachers have when working within it. One of the school’s core values is TRUST, understood as the foundation of the teaching and learning process.
We had the opportunity to see how STEAM is combined with real entrepreneurship projects, such as jewellery design, where students create, produce, and sell real products to real customers, developing creative, social, and economic competences.
Another key strength of the school is the emphasis placed on student participation, collaboration, and the development of a strong learning community, where teachers and students learn together and share responsibilities.
We also visited the Hintta Daycare Centre, an early childhood education centre that particularly impressed us due to its extended opening hours, from 5:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., always adapting to families’ needs.
At this centre, children work with a clear STEAM approach from a very young age, focusing on problem solving, crafts, the use of Bee-Bots, and other educational resources. Learning is based on exploring, designing, and developing their own ideas, following a learning by doing approach, where mistakes are seen as a natural and valuable part of the learning process.
The principal of Hintta School shared some very inspiring reflections, such as:
“It is not the teachers’ choices but the students’ rights,” and “We should teach students how society works.”
Before leaving, we also had the chance to visit the classrooms of the youngest students, concluding a day that was truly inspiring.
