Cox Green Park- February 2024
We were happy to welcome Cox Green school in El Puerto de Santa María ! The group stayed with us in our Spark Residence where they took part in our Spanish classes and learned about the Spanish culture through the cultural activities that the Spark team had organized.
Their trips started on monday with their arrival at Gibraltar where they were picked up by the Chaperone. Everyone were then transferred to El Puerto, once arrived to the Spark residence, they went to La Puntilla Beach where they had a great time playing games and ejoyed the white sand beachy. Later, they all gathered to the rooftop and enjoyed together barbecue and some games.
Next day, they started with the “rota” activities : they had three typical Spanish classes. They made paella, had a Flamenco dance class, and in their Spanish class they made postcards about their trip. After a few rounds, everyone moved to the roof and enjoyed the delicious paella everyone made. After paella, everyone went to La Puntilla beach and had a really fun time .
On Saturday they got another spanish lesson before heading out to have some churros, later they to have a walk in El Puerto city centre, a tour of Castillo San Marcos; In the evning they had more beach time !.After a really long day, they ate tapas at a local restaurante , along with the Chaperone Pedro and all the bar staff who made everyone sing and dance.
On Sunday, everyone went to Cadiz. They visited Torre Tavira and Museo del Carnaval of Cádiz, then they had some time to go shopping and enjoying the famous La Caleta Beach. After dinner on the rooftop, they had their departure ceremony after dinner on the rooftop, with pictures of their stay and everyone got a Spanish certificate.
