Dozens of children from San Francisco School took this central square to kick off a new edition of “A Vila do mañá” initiative. Games of all kinds were the main attraction of the morning and will continue to be throughout this week. And the idea is not far from the image that the local government wants for this environment in just a few months. In fact, the works that will pedestrianize two of the three sides of this square will begin imminently. Meanwhile, that enjoyment of the street by pedestrians is experienced by the children.“

The proposal, aimed to children between 3 and 9 years old, seeks to return the smallest of the house to the streets, where in the past they were enjoyed with games and friends. “Currently children live in boxes, houses, and move to other boxes such as schools and playgrounds and do not really enjoy the city“, explained the mayor of Urban Planning, Paola María. That is why this department and the Youth one, led by Sonia Outón, will launch a series of workshops to be held between August 6 and 10.”
