The Magellanic Clouds ( MCs ) present a rich system of stellar clusters that can be used to probe the dynamical and chemical evolution of these neighboring and interacting irregular galaxies .
In particular , these stellar clusters ( SCs ) present combinations of age and metallicity that are not found for this class of objects in the Milky Way , being therefore very useful templates to test and to calibrate integrated light simple stellar population ( SSP ) models applied to unresolved distance galaxies .
On its turn , the age and metallicity for a cluster can be determined spatially resolving its stars , by means of analysis of its colour-magnitude diagrams ( CMDs ) .
In this work we present our method to determine self-consistent physical parameters ( age , metallicity , distance modulus and reddening ) for a stellar cluster , from CMDs modelling of relatively unstudied SCs in the Small Magellanic Cloud ( SMC ) imaged in the BVI filters with the 4.1 m SOAR telescope .
Our preliminary results confirm our expectations that come from a previous integrated spectra and colour analysis : at least one of them ( Lindsay 2 ) is an intermediate-age stellar cluster with \sim 2.6 Gyr and [ Fe/H ] \sim -1.3 , being therefore a new interesting witness regarding the reactivation of the star formation in the MCs in the last 4 Gyr .
