Newly appointed Headmaster, Sister L\u00facia Fernandes, a former student at CNSB, appeals to a strong commitment of all educational community and in particular of the students to make CNSB a &#8220;a successful school&#8221;. This was her daily motto. There was a concern to be different, to care, and also to show some sympathy and solidarity to some local charities. Bearing this in mind, we promoted moments of unity in the Bonan\u00e7a Family. It is worth noting, for example, how old activities started happening again. &#8220;Festival de Fam\u00edlias&#8221; was one of those and it brought together the good will and talents of parents, children and teachers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2007<\/strong> \u2013 The Project CriAR-TE was born, with the goal of &#8220;Making the change\/Being the force of change&#8221;, based on the principle of &#8220;Inspiring oneself, energising oneself and make a change with the best in oneself&#8221;. This project led to the creation of several teams, with a small number of students, so that they were able to stimulate their skills and overcome difficulties.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2008<\/strong> \u2013 CNSB participated in the AEEP Forum, exhibiting, in one of the pavilions in Alf\u00e2ndega do Porto, the best that this Educational Community did. &#8220;Hope is not a dream, but a way of transforming dreams into reality&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2008<\/strong> \u2013 Dr. Marco Aur\u00e9lio Silva, became the first secular Headmaster of CNSB. The need to open horizons brought new challenges, keeping alive the spirit of change started earlier by Sister L\u00facia Fernandes. On an experimental basis, the teachers\u2019 evaluation process started and great relevance was given to the project CriAR-TE of which Mr. Silva had been a mentor. He also encouraged the teaching and learning of teachers and invested in teaching professionalization. Continuous assessment, rigor and demand were daily imperatives. There was an effort to implement the use of technological material in the classroom and to adapt teaching to each student considering that all students are different with their own needs, handicaps and potential. The School Project was implemented with professionalism, training, cohesion, interaction between management, teachers, students, parents and non-teaching staff. At the end of each year, there was a Formative Exhibition of work developed by the students, called &#8220;Open Days&#8221;. This was meant to promote creativity and took into account the programmes and the specificity of each subject.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2009<\/strong> \u2013 It was created a week dedicated to the Portuguese Language, entitled FantasL\u00edngua. It was an annual initiative (interrupted only due to the SarsCov 2 epidemic crisis) which invited to the school high representatives of our Native Language: writers and poets, people who worked in the cinema industry, artists, political leaders and religious icons to speak and discuss relevant issues with students from all levels of education, from Preschool to year 12. It also aimed to promote more reading habits.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#expand-14bf8fa\" aria-expanded=\"false\" data-target=\"#expand-14bf8fa\" aria-controls=\"expand-14bf8fa\"><br \/>\nSignificant increase in the number of students, thanks to the effort of updating and dynamizing pedagogical<br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>2011<\/strong> \u2013 The newly appointed Headmaster, Dr. Ant\u00f3nio Madureira, continued the work left by the previous administration, on the basis that education is a never-ending project and goals are continually being rethought as educating is a never ending job.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2014<\/strong> \u2013 The change in the administration at CNSB (Sister Cid\u00e1lia Ara\u00fajo, Administrative Director and Dr. Lu\u00eds Caetano, Headmaster) brings boldness, innovation, greater dynamism, creativity, but also rigour. To this end, the school imposes on itself the exercise of continuously overcoming challenges through dialogue, work, proximity and pedagogical-didactic updating, so that students may find their way to be truly happy based on the ideals, values and convictions of our school. At the same time, there was an investment in a greater opening of the school to the environment, to new technologies, to the interaction with local and national institutions\/universities as well as the establishment of partnerships with international companies allowing several groups of students to engage in Summer Courses aboard, especially in England. Annual tours were carried out throughout Europe for different teaching cycles, and educational tours across Europe took students to different cultures and ways of living.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2015<\/strong> \u2013 It began the renovation of some school oldest areas (spaces), a Nursery School (4-12 months and 1-3-year-olds) which did not exist previously, and the renovation and expansion of the entire Kindergarten building, as well as the facilities of the female boarding school which was in great demand.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2015<\/strong> \u2013 Renovations also started on Casa de Nazar\u00e9, on Rua Teixeira Lopes, which belongs to CONFHIC and, in that same year, the Sisters who lived in different areas of the school (original palace and boarding school) moved to this building, which became their official residence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2016<\/strong> \u2013 The school saw a significant increase in the number of students, thanks to the effort of updating and pedagogical dynamism, increased by the Headmaster \u2013 Dr. Lu\u00eds Caetano and teachers. The effort and excellent work of the school community led to very good results in the national exams, making CNSB the school of choice for many families. The offer and enrolment in the AEC (extra-curricular activities) also increased exponentially, which forced the requalification of new spaces, particularly in the palace and on the ground floor of the boarding school.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2016<\/strong> \u2013 With the expansion of Preschool cycle, CNSB doubled its educational offer in this sector and saw the need to also expand the Nursery that had started its activity the previous year, and was now able to increase its capacity. Having this sector reached its maximum optimization so quickly, CNSB marked the beginning of this school year with a sculpture of the Guardian Angel, on the wall of this building, entrusting all children and those who care for them, the Divine protection and the guardianship of the Holy Angel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2017<\/strong> \u2013 This year started the celebration of the 90 years of CNSB under the agglutinating theme of the biennium &#8220;90 years drawing the future&#8221;, continuing on the path of building an increasingly happy reality.<br \/>\nTo mark this date and with the approach of 175 years of life and work of Sister Maria Clara, the main courtyard of the school was restored and, on 4th October the sculpture of M\u00e3e Clara, by Jo\u00e3o Filipe S\u00e1, was unveiled. Members of the educational and local community were invited to the celebration along with former students, elements of the City Council and the Provincial Government of CONFHIC. It was also attended by Bishop Manuel Mendes dos Santos, who blessed the sculpture of M\u00e3e Clara. Next to the sculpture, students from different cycles, planted pansies \u2013 M\u00e3e Clara&#8217;s favourite flower. The moments of celebration lasted throughout the school year, with numerous initiatives that integrated the entire educational community with students as the main protagonists.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2017<\/strong> \u2013 On the fourteenth day of March, month number 3 (3.14), the Guinness World Record was obtained with the biggest Human Pi (\u03c0), which joined the great majority of the members of the Bonan\u00e7a family.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2018<\/strong> \u2013 With the motto,&nbsp;Vigilantes na noite sob o olhar providente de Deus, the Congregation of the Franciscan Hospitable Sisters of the Immaculate Conception inaugurated a Jubilee Year &#8211; 2017 &#8211; June 15th &#8211; 2018 &#8211; that celebrates the 175th anniversary of the birth of its Foundress. To mark this unique date, CNSB invited and brought to the school the great-granddaughter of M\u00e3e Clara, accompanied by her daughter, Dr. Ana S\u00edlvia Albuquerque de Oliveira N.A. Magalh\u00e3es, who gave a lecture on the Pedagogy and Ideas of the Franciscan Hospitable School, followed by a fraternal social gathering. It was a memorable moment for everyone!<\/p>\n<p><strong>2018<\/strong> \u2013 Closing the biennium of the celebrations of the 90th anniversary of CNSB and of the celebrations of the 175 years of the Foundress&#8217; life and work, the chapel and cloister of the school were restored and, at the end of May, a beautiful sculpture of S. Francisco de Assis (St Francis of Assisi), by Jo\u00e3o Filipe S\u00e1, was unveiled and blessed by the local priest. The celebration of M\u00e3e Clara&#8217;s 175th birthday culminated with a Pilgrimage to F\u00e1tima, carried out by CONFHIC and with the awarding ceremony of prizes of the contest of pansies, offered to M\u00e3e Clara.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#expand-c4c18bd\" aria-expanded=\"false\" data-target=\"#expand-c4c18bd\" aria-controls=\"expand-c4c18bd\"><br \/>\nModernization of physical spaces and the growth of the structural area of \u200b\u200bthe CNSB<br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>2020<\/strong> \u2013 Educating is a challenge: it is writing and designing the future. For that, we forced ourselves to think, to build, to present ideas, to develop products and to solve problems. And problems challenged us. Due to SarsCov 2, we were asked to set up in only 2 days the necessary technological infrastructure, to provide home schooling to our students in the remaining two weeks of the second term. The experience helped us to grow, to seek knowledge through new ways, other paths&#8230; to achieve, besides knowledge, the search for happiness, as we had always done.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2022<\/strong> \u2013 In the last 7 years, the Arts Academy was created, structuring extra-curricular activities, in different fields: Sports, Foreign Languages. We have also managed to provide opportunities to our students to acquire and live the necessary values that, we believe, will lead students to success and happiness. We have promoted self-regulating mechanisms&#8230; We have competed in various national competitions having won or placed in good places, in different \u201cOlimp\u00edadas\u201d, &#8220;Ci\u00eancia na Escola&#8221; projects, \u201cA empresa\u201d project by the company Junior Achievemnet Portugal, SuperTmatik Championship&#8230; and many others are examples of the different competitions we have enrolled our students in. We are an Intercultural School and we are part of the Network of Schools for Intercultural Education (REEI). We have also received the distinction of an Eco-School, Escola Azul, Escola Solid\u00e1ria&#8230; We have organised field trips and cultural trips abroad&#8230;<br \/>\nAcademic results are among the best of all Portuguese schools and, at the moment, CNSB is the best school in Vila Nova de Gaia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2021\/2022<\/strong> \u2013 Despite many obstacles, CNSB did not stop in time. It is also necessary to grow physically and enrich school facilities. With the renaming and arrival of the former Administrative Director, who had previously been in charge of the construction of the Nursery and Kindergarten buildings, an old dream was about to come true: the modernisation of some of the school\u2019s old facilities and the construction of new ones enlarging the size of the school significantly. In spite of some momentary discomfort and the need to find alternative facilities so that classes are disturbed as little as possible, the renovations started at a good pace so that the new facilities are ready as soon as possible. This way students will be able to have classes in a more welcoming and modern environment, something that both students and parents have longing for some time and are entitled to. The future is promising. Let us be able to take it and build it for the benefit of all students.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;Somos Bonan\u00e7a&#8221;.
