Interview with Antonella: the inspiration behind a career dedicated to children

Antonella is a pillar of Kinder International School where she has worked as a teacher of the Spring section since 1981. With passion and dedication, she has contributed to the growth of numerous children, finding a second family in this environment. This article explores her career path and tells us about her love for education and the profound impact she had on the school community.

The beginning of a journey: the inspiration of a lifetime

Antonella has always had a desire to work with children. Her education was aimed at becoming an elementary school teacher, but an unexpected opportunity in September 1981 changed her path. Antonella joined Kinder Haus as a nursery school teacher and immediately found a family environment that made her feel at ease. Working in an international school, characterized by the presence of many foreign children, represented a continuous enrichment for her, promoting her personal and professional growth.

An experience that constantly transforms

For Antonella, working with children is an experience that constantly transforms her. Every day, their simplicity, purity and joy teach her to see life from ever new perspectives, facing it with amazement and positivity. A particularly touching moment for her is when a former student of hers entrusts her with his son. This act of trust, according to Antonella, reflects the positive experience lived by the parents during their school years under her guidance.

The joy of working with children in an international school

Working with children offers Antonella immense daily satisfaction. Helping children in their growth and being able to observe their progress represents an invaluable reward for her, compensating for the complexities of her work. Antonella finds great satisfaction in contributing to the development of her students in every aspect of their lives.

A desire for growth

Antonella’s dream for the school would be to have different games and set-ups for each daily activity. Even if she is aware of working in an already wonderful place, Antonella believes that dreaming is legitimate and that aspiring to something even bigger and more beautiful fuels motivation and imagination.

A lasting message: the legacy of a commitment

Antonella hopes that at Kinder Haus, a school that she considers a family, the affections and relationships consolidated over time will never be lost. Her desire is for her contribution to be remembered as an element that strengthened the sense of community and belonging, uniting people through a shared commitment to the education and well-being of children.
