La semana pasada visitamos el Centro de Interpretación del Hórreo, una salida perfecta para conocer de cerca una parte muy nuestra de la cultura asturiana. 🌿🏡

Entre historia, detalles y muchas preguntas, nuestro alumnado descubrió para qué servían los hórreos, cómo se construían y por qué siguen siendo un símbolo de nuestra tierra. Aprender también es mirar lo que nos rodea con otros ojos. 💛

Antes de las vacaciones de Semana Santa, vivimos un día de cole que lo tuvo todo. ⚽️🎨💛

Partido de 5º vs 6º y, además, una actividad interdisciplinar entre Plástica y Educación Física: el alumnado creó pancartas y preparó animaciones para animar desde la grada.

Deporte, creatividad y compañerismo… en el mismo campo. 👏✨
