Santos FC hosts state school visit with Instituto Placar and SEDUC

Santos FC welcomed a visit from Parque dos Sonhos State School, in partnership with Instituto Placar and SEDUC, this Tuesday (18), at Vila Belmiro. The 32 students, ranging from fifth grade to high school, toured the Club’s museum, locker room, and the stadium pitch.

Rosana Santana, the school’s vice principal, celebrated the visit and the children’s joy. “It is an honor for the school, and for many of them it is the first time visiting the stadium. Sport transforms these children’s lives, and the change is clear in their attitude and learning.”

Márcia Andreia Reis, head of SEDUC’s Sports and Culture Department, commented on the role of the department. “Our department was created with the aim of encouraging children to make use of cultural facilities. By working with sport and culture, we have the perfect combination, because through sport I have discipline, contact, coexistence, rules for living together, kindness, and sociability to work within schools.”

Vanessa Miranda, CEO of Instituto Placar, also highlighted the importance of the initiative. “We have a project to visit schools together with SEDUC. And the idea is to bring these children from the schools to visit museums, stadiums, and clubs. Vila Belmiro is the first, and we are very honored by that.”
