This research was carried out at a Family Farm School (EFA-PURIS), located at Zona da Mata, Minas Gerais, to analyze the themes affection and sexuality. Data assessments of EFA-PURIS students, parents, monitors, and directors were conducted. The general objective of this work was to identify the relevance of discussing such topics for these groups. The analysis was based on the belief that the educational contents to be explored by the monitors at the School go beyond the curriculum formality. The young students are received for an intensive 15- day live-in at School, during which time, the school monitors and directors assume total responsibility over them, what represents serious management and control challenges. The students then return home and stay with their families over the next 15 days. As a result of this change, involving time at home and time at school, life dynamics is alternated, distinct values can be experienced, and the desired home school interaction may perish or solidify. As data collection, participative techniques were applied as part of the field work, besides documented analysis, participating observation, interviews, individual reports, and photos. The meanings and values attributed to the themes affection and sexuality differed among parents, students, monitors and directors, because of their different conditions. However, the themes per se represented an issue to all them. To the monitors, the difficulties in dealing with such issues at the School derive from formation gaps, intense proximity, and their duties as counsellors. For the parents, the themes are a subject of concern because of the external influences (TV) and because they think that dating and "School are excluding activities. For the students, these topics must be discussed, not only based on biological information, but also philosophical and cultural. At their age, experiencing feelings of affection and being able to discuss sexuality are crucial for their future as adults.
