Abstract: This paper aims to relate how university educators act with leisure and analyze the relationship between the context of education and manifestations of leisure in the studied Programme. The research investigated university students who actuate in schools through the Programme "Escola da Família" on the weekends. They carry out workshops, practices of body culture, courses, among other actions, with peripheral communities in a city in the countryside of the State of São Paulo/Brazil. We identify that the Programme has two curriculums: one is formal, following the directions and guidelines of the Education Department, and one is the curriculum of resistance, which is spontaneous, casual, powerful, translated by the practical choices of the educators and the community. As a result, we understand that college students are students who feel and stand as educators. They are individuals who bring experience from the sports, artistic, religious fields; they learn about organization, playfulness when acting the PEF; they defend the importance that leisure occupies in people's lives, also standing in the way that having more spaces and equipment for leisure in the cities is needed, as the educational processes for leisure manifestations is essential regarding personal formation, social and affective conviviality of the individuals.
