❄️ Semana Blanca ❄️

Días de nieve, deporte y compañerismo: aprender a deslizar, caerse y levantarse, animarse entre amigos… y volver con la mochila llena de momentos. ⛷️💛

Porque también se aprende fuera del aula: autonomía, confianza y trabajo en equipo, con un paisaje que no se olvida.

❄️ White Week ❄️

Days of snow, sport and friendship: learning how to glide, falling and getting back up, cheering each other on… and coming home with a backpack full of memories. ⛷️💛

Because learning also happens outside the classroom: independence, confidence and teamwork, surrounded by an unforgettable landscape.

Nuestros alumnos de 1º y 2º de Primaria lo pasaron en grande en la búsqueda de huevos de Pascua de Phonics! 🥚✨

Los huevos estaban escondidos por los espacios exteriores y, dentro, encontraron sonidos de phonics (Floppy phonics) A partir de ahí, tuvieron que completar un reto de lectoescritura en equipo. Una forma divertida y muy práctica de seguir aprendiendo… ¡al aire libre y con mucha ilusión! 💛

Our Grade 1 and Grade 2 children had an egg-citing time during our Phonics Easter Egg Hunt! 🥚✨

Hidden around our outdoor spaces, they found eggs filled with phonics sounds, opened them one by one, and completed a literacy challenge as a team. A wonderful way to keep learning active, meaningful and full of smiles. 💛

Hace unos meses celebrábamos el reconocimiento de Pablo… y hoy lo escuchamos en primera persona. 💛📚

En este reel, Pablo Hu nos cuenta cómo nació Madre (finalista del Certamen Joven de Relatos Cortos “Tigre Juan” 2025) y responde a dos preguntas que dicen mucho de su manera de escribir:
✨ ¿Con qué palabra definirías tu relato?
✨ ¿Qué te inspira para describirlo?

Dale al play y quédate con sus respuestas (spoiler: te hacen mirar la historia con otros ojos). 👀
¿Con qué palabra definirías tú Madre después de leerlo?

A few months ago we celebrated Pablo’s recognition… and today we hear from him directly. 💛📚

In this reel, Pablo Hu shares how Madre came to life (finalist in the “Tigre Juan” Young Short Story Competition 2025) and answers two questions that reveal a lot about his writing:
✨ What one word would you use to define your story?
✨ What inspires you to describe it?

Press play and listen to his answers (they’ll make you see the story differently). 👀
What word would you choose for Madre after reading?

En Pre-school aprendemos con las manos… y con los ojos bien abiertos. 🌱👀

Salimos al exterior para observar y recoger hojas, hablar de sus formas, texturas y colores, y llenar nuestras bolsitas de “tesoros verdes”. Una actividad sencilla que trabaja la curiosidad, la atención y el cuidado por la naturaleza. 💛

¿Quién dijo que clasificar seres vivos no podía ser divertido? 🔎⚡️

En 3º de Primaria, dentro del PEP, hemos trabajado la clasificación de los seres vivos según sus características… ¡con una Pokédex muy especial! 🧬📚
Vertebrados e invertebrados, grupos, rasgos y mucha observación para justificar cada elección. Aprender pensando, creando y conectando lo que saben con lo que les encanta. 💛
