Buenas Dias (good morning),
It is nearly time for us to return back to Worksop but before we leave Spain we have gone in search of schools in Spain so you can learn about the children who live across the channel in this exciting country. The first school we came too was called The Firs Independent Primary School (www.firsprimary.com). What language do you think the children and teachers spoke? Not Spanish but English, as this is a school where families who leave England and move to Spain take their children. They learn all the same subjects and topics that you learn about and their teachers were once teachers in England but have decided to leave the English schools and teach abroad. But the mums and dads must pay for their children to come to school because the Spanish government does not give them money. Use the website to navigate around their school website. Can you see their school building? Where in Spain are we at the moment? How is this the same or different to our school building? Can you find a photo of the children and what are they wearing?
WOOSH, ZOOM, POW! Ahh the children of Firs Primary school were very welcoming but now we have arrived at a second school next to the beach in Andalucia, Sotogrande. (www.sis.ac). This is a very different school as the children here are Spanish and English. Children start here in the nursery and stay at this school until they are eighteen years old! KS1 have their own 'pod', KS2 have their own 'pod' as do the even older children. Another strange thing is that the children at this school do not go home to see their mums and dads until the school holidays. This school is called a boarding school where children will finish their learning at 5pm and then go with all their school friends to their living quarters and be looked after by house parents. This sounds scary but the children here are very happy and enjoy living at their school. Can you use their school website to find out about their location, facilities and about their learning known as IBPYP? What are the children wearing? What does the boarding house look like?
