Y6 VISITS TO CAIF & CLUB DE NIÑOS LA ESPERANZA

Personal, social and physical education (PSPE), which is part of The British Schools’ curriculum in Junior, empowers students through experiences designed to develop their sense of personal identity and their identity within their social and cultural context

Throughout the year PSPE activities take on many forms, including activities within the School community as well as with the wider community beyond. The aim, through a variety of initiatives, is to help promote and encourage a sense of caring through empathy and collaborative commitment.

For over 12 years now, every Monday morning, around 12 Form 6 students attend the Club de Niños & CAIF La Esperanza. Each child participates at least twice a year in the Monday excursions, but the golden brooch is at the end of the year, where all the children from CAIF and the Club de Niños are invited to our School to play games invented and directed by our students and later indulge in a delicious picnic.

Parents are invited to come and join the Monday mornings groups in our continuous effort to enhance healthy and collaborative home & school relationships.

Students share quality time with the Club kids in their kitchen workshops, cooking something together and they later play outdoors (if the weather allows it) with the CAIF children, where they collaborate and assist the teachers of the CAIF in the activities they plan for the kids.

These visits are the closure of the PSPE programme, where children have the opportunity to share and put into practice all the social skills and concepts learned throughout the PSPE units in an effort to work with empathy in our concern for other communities.
