Gonzaga Campus: 100 Years of Innovative Educational Spaces
For over a hundred years, Gonzaga Campus has been a place of growth, encounter and integral formation, faithful to the educational tradition of the Society of Jesus and open to the challenges of the present. The Campus environments have been rethought to offer children and young people welcoming, functional and innovative spaces that foster learning, social life, well-being and the discovery of their own talents. The park, classrooms, canteen, library with the Ancient Collection, agora and common areas are not only places to live every day, but environments with a clear educational purpose, designed to accompany each student in their uniqueness. Between tradition and innovation, care for the person and attention to sustainability, Gonzaga Campus continues to be a living, international school open to the city: an educating community where one grows with an open mind, an attentive heart and a gaze turned to the future.
External Environments
All those who live on campus benefit from flexible spaces that configure the mobility of the individual and the life of the small and large group, according to the activities of the day: classrooms, the gym, the library, the chapel, the laboratories, the playground, the educational garden.
Interior Environments
The areas reserved for children and boys and girls have recently been renovated, according to modern school building standards, and adapted, according to the rules established by the post-covid school.
Library
The Gonzaga Campus Library has been established over 100 years of history. It is not a sector library, the book material that is kept there is of various subjects and has followed the work and study paths of students and Jesuits who were trained in Palermo and made the history of the Gonzaga Institute.
Canteen and Bar
The school canteen was designed to allow students to benefit from a second "long break" (50 minutes) during the school day, to catch their breath and share the meal while socializing with each other and their teachers. There is also the possibility of differentiating the menus based on the specific needs of each individual (food allergies, diabetes, etc.). There are also two cafes on the campus to allow kids to have their break with fresh and nutritious food.
Chapel
The chapel is a sacred space at the heart of the campus, providing a place for prayer, reflection, and spiritual growth. It serves as a gathering place for the community to come together in faith and celebration.
