The Delights

View on the Pragda STREAM site

Treating youngsters with respect and demanding respect in return is the astute and impressive ethos of Las Delicias, an agro-technical boarding school in the Argentina countryside in the province of Entre Ríos, where more than 120 youngsters live, learn, and play together.

It is a school for all types of kids: small-town kids who want to learn more about agriculture, big-city kids who were kicked out of other schools, and kids who had nowhere to go during the school year. It is a clash of cultures. Although the school has very few resources, it provides discipline, value, and growth to these children through agriculture, schoolwork, and exercise.

In this close-knit community, distanced from their families, these young souls navigate the intersection of childhood’s end and the dawn of their youth.
