Overview

Oficina dos Sonhos ("Workshop of Dreams") is a Christian evangelical school in Joinville, Santa Catarina, Brazil, serving families from Educação Infantil (early childhood) through Ensino Fundamental (primary education).

At a time when few small private schools in Brazil had any meaningful online presence, Oficina dos Sonhos launched a full-featured institutional portal built on a heavily customized CMS. Rather than using the platform out of the box, the site was extensively tailored — custom templates, integrated third-party components, and purpose-built modules — to match the school's identity and serve the specific needs of its community.

Institutional pages — covering the school's history, leadership, Christian principles and values, and physical structure

Academic sections — for both Ensino Fundamental and Educação Infantil with pedagogical proposals, reading recommendations, and annual academic calendars

News and events — keeping families current with school activities, announcements, and upcoming occasions

Practical family resources — school supply lists, transportation details, and extra-curricular activity schedules — published online rather than sent home on paper

Photo gallery — showcasing school events, classroom life, and special occasions such as the Patati Patata visit

Event calendar — with monthly scheduling and activity listings for each class level

Daily devotional sidebar — ("Maná Diário") reinforcing the school's Christian identity on every page

Student poll and community engagement — features that made the site feel alive and interactive

The site ran as the school's primary digital touchpoint for years, modernizing how the institution communicated with families and positioning Oficina dos Sonhos as a forward-thinking, professionally run school in its community — at a time when this level of web presence was genuinely rare among small Brazilian private schools.
