Edunauta Passport Party: the educational project that connects

Tomorrow, Friday, May 22, Tarragona prepares for an initiative that places children at the center of learning beyond the classrooms. The Edunauta Passport Festival promises to make visible everything that boys and girls learn outside of school, a silent revolution that many parents and teachers already celebrate.

Driven by the Municipal Institute of Education of Tarragona, this project aims to connect and recognize this extracurricular learning, a step that seems to open doors to a new way of valuing education.

What is the Edunauta Passport?

An innovative educational project

The Edunauta Passport is an initiative led by the Municipal Institute of Education of Tarragona whose main objective is to connect children’s learning outside of school with their overall educational development. It is a way to recognize and make visible everything they learn in other spaces and environments, such as extracurricular activities, workshops, or personal projects.

The role of the Municipal Institute of Education

The Institute acts as a driver and ensures that this recognition is official and structured. Thus, a bridge is created between formal and informal education, encouraging children to feel valued and motivated for everything we discover outside of traditional classrooms.

The Edunauta Passport Festival

When and where it will be held

The celebration will take place this Friday, May 22, from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. The festival marks the culminating moment of this project, where children, families, and educators come together to share experiences and recognize the learning achieved.

What you will see and experience there

This day includes activities, exhibitions, and participatory moments that highlight the skills and knowledge that boys and girls have acquired outside the conventional school context. It is an opportunity for everyone to realize that education is not limited to books or the classroom.

The value of recognizing learning outside of school

Why is it necessary?

Many children spend more hours outside of school than inside, and much of their growth happens in these non-formal spaces. Recognizing this learning helps strengthen their self-esteem and motivation, as well as encourages the interest in constantly learning.

Impact on the educational community

This initiative represents a shift in perspective from educators and families. It abandons the traditional concept that only school is the place for learning. Instead, it takes a firm step toward an education that accompanies the child through all their life experiences.

The Edunauta Passport Festival is, therefore, much more than a celebration: it is recognition of the diversity of learnings that shape people from a very young age.
