Clubs
As coordinators of Extacurricular Activities, our primary concern is “teaching how to think intensely and think critically”, with the goal of leading students to be “free, autonomous, responsible and aware of themselves and of the world around them, capable of dealing with change and uncertainty in a rapidly transforming world, capable of thinking critically and autonomously, creative, with collaborative work skills and communication skills”.
In this way, the school, an optimal space for productive education, sees the training of students as essential for their preparation for the globalized world. Here the seeds of the future are sown and we seek to inspire and prepare students to be true active actors with a view to their insertion in society.

Project Description
The dance modality at Escola Secundária Jaime Moniz, active since 2003/2004, aims to emphasize the need for recognition and appreciation of dance in school situations as knowledge, perception and creative process.
This modality aims to provide secondary school students with the opportunity to continue developing their taste for dance and to expand their potential in the world of art through movement, after completing basic education.
As students reach adolescence, it is convenient to create opportunities to motivate them to keep developing physical, cognitive and sensitive capabilities, as well as providing a study of dance made up of an intense challenge of relationships with other curricular subjects, with themes that interest them and are inspired in their collective universe. This will also be a way to include dance in extracurricular areas.
Target Audience
Students from year 10 to year 12.
Goals of the project
Knowing that dance encompasses concepts, procedures and attitudes and needs to be approached in all its dimensions, some objectives were outlined for its teaching, enabling students to:
- acquire basic bodily skills for creating and interpreting dance;
- develop kinaesthetic, spatial and temporal perception;
- promote reflection on values and attitudes from a learning perspective for the exercise of responsible citizenship and promoting inclusion.
Activities to be carried out:
- Participation in school events such as: Week of Groups, Clubs and Projects at Escola Secundária Jaime Moniz;
- Regional School Dance Festival;
- Art week;
- Participation in cultural events;
- Creation of choreographies;
- Production of the musical for the Opening of the XXV Week of Groups, Clubs and Projects.
