glazebury visit to malaga 2012
TRANSCRIPT
Glazebury Primary school has been part of the ongoing Comenius Regio project in which schools in Malaga and schools in England are twinned to share ideas about education, specifically focussing upon the cultural differences/similarities, dance and sport.
This year, Mrs Bullough and Mr Snelson were lucky enough to visit our partner school, CEIP Clara Campaomor when all schools in Andalucía were celebrating peace day.
All the children at the school took part in a performance to celebrate peace day.
Different year groups at the school selected a Nobel Peace Prize winner and performed a short drama based upon their chosen person – as you can see, this all took place out doors...in January!
In many ways, CEIP Clara Campoamor is similar to Glazebury; in the school library they have an English section with books that we have taken to them on our visits; we have Spanish books in our library as well, many of which have been donated to us by our partner school.
In this Olympic year, weare looking forward to celebrating our partnership and the culmination of our work over the past years. Our school in Malaga has an Olympic-sized swimming pool, a basketball arena and an Athletics stadium nearby. Colleagues from Clara Campamoar will be visting us in May to see how the Olympics have had a positive impact upon our local area.
During our stay, we got chance to visit some of the most importantplaces in Malaga; the children andteachers are very proud of their local area and we are looking forward to showing them all the things that we are proud of in Warrington.
Education isn’t just about Educating our children, adults still learn everyday and wehope that when the teachersfrom our partner schoolvisit us in May, they willlearn a lot from thechildren, teachers, parentsand whole community of Glazebury.
