welcoming. This little big island of happiness is located in the south of Reggio Calabria, in the Sbarre district. It is the "Caterina Troiani" Equalized Kindergarten and Primary School. An institution among the oldest and most prestigious in the city that welcomes, without distinction, children from the first years of life up to ten years. Here, every morning, at the sound of the first bell, the pupils are greeted with a smile on their lips. The same with which Sister Maria Assunta Morosin of the Franciscan Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary who have run the Institute for over a century welcomes us. Theirs, in Reggio Calabria, is a living presence, more than a century long. Called to the shores of the Strait to help children who were orphaned in the aftermath of the violent earthquake of 1908, they then remained there. Today they continue to take care of the little ones in a different way, but always with the same attention: "Not only at the educational level, but also through education," explains Sister Maria Assunta. Titti Falcone is the didactic coordinator of the school. She is part of the large group of lay teachers who, interpreting the Franciscan educational style of the nuns and their founder, Blessed Caterina Troiani, also carry out a valuable work. "This - he says - leads us to work every day with passion, having at heart the growth of the children entrusted to us".
