This week the work of the first phase de Plan Edificant started in the city. This is a complete renovation of the washrooms at CEIP Oltà.

The building, built in the 1940s and extended in the 1960s, now has four washrooms, two on the ground floor and two on the upper floor. The washrooms also house the teachers' toilets and a small room where the cleaning materials are stored. The washrooms were renovated in 1999 - 200, but now the normal wear and tear has appeared.

The work consists in demolishing the current WCs and the partition wall. The accesses are changed, windows are replaced, the cisterns are renewed and new sanitary and electrical installations are installed. Doors are replaced and the space is adapted to the new needs. The works have a budget of 101.923,40 €.

This project is the result of a round table discussion that the City Council held with all the directors and chairmen of the AMPAS (Parents' Representatives) of the schools in the city to collect the needs in each of the schools, with the aim of giving special importance to the school community in discussing the applications for the Edificant Plan.

Other infrastructure under the Edificant Plan includes the construction of a second grammar school and a new centre for the Gargasindi Special School, with the demolition of the existing building planned for summer 2020 as a first step towards the start of work.

A total of 2850 pupils from primary, middle, secondary and special schools began the 2018-2019 school year in Calpe today.

This year, 157 children are enrolled in the Silene d'Ifac kindergarten, 519 in the second cycle, 1,145 in primary school, 719 in secondary school, 158 in secondary school, 45 in basic vocational training, 40 in intermediate vocational training and 67 in special school. Enrolment is possible throughout the year, so these figures may vary.

The Mayor of Calpe, Ana Sala, and the Education Councillor, Rebeca Merchán, visited the Azorín School this morning to find out how the new school year began. This summer, through the municipal brigades, the Calpe City Council carried out various gardening, sanitary, carpentry, electrical and blacksmithing works in schools in the municipality to prepare for the start of the course.

The Mayor was also interested in the project of the new gymnasium to be built in the Azorín school as part of the Edificant Programme. The project design is expected to be tendered shortly and construction of the facilities, estimated at EUR 616,000, can begin next year.

For the fourth year in a row, more than 150 elementary school students from the 5th grade of the CEIP Oltà, Ceip Gabriel Miró and Ceip Azorín schools are taking part in the Olympic Games of Finance to learn more about the ethical use of money, resources and responsible consumption. The initiative is carried out in collaboration with the Department of Education and Youth of the Calpe City Council.

 

The Financial Olympics, which are part of the national project "Responsible Consumption for a Better World", are innovative, educational and formative activities specifically designed to enable children to experience and learn the value of saving, the intelligent and ethical use of money and the importance of meaningful and responsible spending, as well as the value of effort as a means of achieving what we need or want.

 

"Teaching children to maintain a healthy relationship with money is as important as feeding or dressing thyem. With age-appropriate financial education, they have a better chance of becoming responsible and financially independent adults. If children are given the tools they need, they can avoid the pitfalls of consumerism alone," explains Verónica Deambrogio, founder of El Recetario Financiero® (The Recipe Book of Finances®) and responsible for the event

 

Similarly, all primary schools participating in this activity will become part of the "National Network of Innovative Schools" of El Recetario Financiero®, a network that recognises all Spanish educational centres that are distinguished by their commitment to the dissemination of financial knowledge and innovation, as an essential tool for those who will be the society of the future: children.

 

El Recetario Financiero® is an educational company whose mission is to help children and young people develop their potential through financial education and entrepreneurial culture. El Recetario Financiero®, together with the municipalities of Benissa, Calpe and Teulada, Creama and various companies in the region, has opened the Marina Alta First School for Young Entrepreneurs at the Centro de Excelencia for young people aged between 14 and 20.

Ending sexist stereotypes and preventing gender violence is the aim of the campaign in which all public schools in Calpe will participate throughout April and May.

The activities carried out vary according to the age of the children or adolescents. Thus, kids (3-6 years old) will participate on 15 and 16 April in a dramatised story for the promotion of equality and the prevention of gender violence.

The scholars of the last cycle of primary school (10- 12 years old) will take part in some workshops for the prevention of sexist attitudes, the promotion of egalitarian values and the prevention of gender violence at the end of April.

Finally, at IES Ifach, a programme for the prevention of sexual violence in adolescents aimed at 2nd year ESO will be carried out throughout the month of May.
