It's never too late to learn Spanish!

The students are participating in a Spanish course programme for school groups in Granada. The 1 week programme consists in Spanish lessons in the mornings and the following cultural activities in the afternoons: role game & churros in the city centre, guided visits to Alhambra and Albaicín, a visit to the Arabic bath, Flamenco at the Sacromonte and an afternoon in Nerja beach.

For those thinking of learning Spanish and hiking in Andalusia the area around Granada often ranks highly as a choice of venues. One of the main attractions of this beautiful area is the wide variety of landscapes that are available within a very short distance. It is an ideal area for combining a Spanish course with walking holidays.

The Sierra Nevada National Park offer wonderful views around almost every corner. Here you can select from a wide range of walking challenges from very easy to extremely difficult. The walking routes have been here for centuries.  All year round our school complements the Spanish lessons in the morning with guided walks during two afternoons sper week.

We understand that the current system of Comenius-Grundtvig grants will be replaced in May 2014 by the new European Programme Erasmus+, whereby teachers will be able to apply for funding to attend teacher training programmes in Spain and other European countries.

In due course information should be available from your National Agency.
 
As arrangements for obtaining European Union funding from May 2014 onwards are not at all clear, we strongly recommend taking advantage of the old Comenius-Grundtvig system before it ends.
