Second Term Excursions in Primary: Learning Beyond the Classroom

In lower primary (1st and 2nd grade), they sparked their scientific curiosity with a visit to CosmoCaixa, where they experimented with physical phenomena and explored the universe. They also got a closer look at rural life with a trip to Can Gel, learning about animal care and the importance of the livestock sector. 

In middle primary (3rd and 4th grade), they traveled back in time to discover how our ancestors lived. At the Gavà Mines, they explored one of Europe's oldest mining sites, and at the Besòs River, they studied its ecosystem and biodiversity, reflecting on the importance of environmental conservation. 

In upper primary (5th and 6th grade), they delved deeper into history and local wildlife. At Cardona Castle, they learned about medieval military strategy and daily life in the Middle Ages, while at the CRARC in Masquefa, they discovered reptiles and amphibians, their conservation, and their role in the ecosystem. 

These excursions not only reinforced academic learning but also fostered teamwork, critical thinking, and respect for the environment. At Xaloc, education goes beyond the classroom, offering students experiences that enrich their personal development.
