Here, the young girls were able to attend a regular course of study, where alongside reading, writing and counting, they learned the art of sewing, as well as music and drawing. In 1844, the school was expanded considerably, becoming a kind of boarding school.\r\n\r\nSpontini allocated an annual contribution to the school for the running of the house and for the girls' board. In addition, a special committee of \u201cLadies Ladies of Maiolati\u201d was set up to oversee \u201cthe Pia School of education and teaching\u201d.\r\n\r\nThe building, which today has different purposes, preserves the memory of the Maestro's generosity thanks to the plaque on the exterior fa\u00e7ade.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomemaiolatispontini.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/destinazione\/1451","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomemaiolatispontini.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/destinazione"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomemaiolatispontini.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/destinazione"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomemaiolatispontini.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomemaiolatispontini.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/destinazione\/1451\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2339,"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomemaiolatispontini.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/destinazione\/1451\/revisions\/2339"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomemaiolatispontini.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1546"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.welcomemaiolatispontini.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1451"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
