We analyze educational practices aimed at caring for children and the family, book used in the official schools of Belém entitled "Pastoral care for the physical and spiritual health of our inland diocesans" - 1935, written by the Salesian and Archbishop of Belém Dom Antônio Lustosa. Based on the documentary source and the understanding of the document as a raw material in the history of education, based on the cultural history of Roger Chartier, we problematize this work the dissemination of hygiene as an element of the educational process in the school, an instrument of moral and Christian morality in the city capital and inland, constituting in the family the culture of assuming a coherent and rational position in the care of the child in the historical context of the 30s, articulating science, health, religion as school knowledge.

Keywords : History of education; Education and Health; Salesian Congregation.
