The City Council, through the Department of Education and Infantile Schools, directed by Belén López, has collaborated one more year with the AMPAS in organizing the Christmas Schools for schoolchildren in the municipality.
1,000 children have participated in the schools during the holiday period, which lasted between December 23 and January 3.
A total of 33 Christmas schools have been organized in 22 public educational centers in the municipality.
"In this way, resources are optimized, social relations between schoolchildren in different schools are promoted, in addition to offering families a complementary service during the period of school break," said Councilwoman Belén López.
For the transfer and organization of centers during the holidays, the Department informs the centers of the need to communicate to the Service the organization of the Christmas Schools in order to know the schools that are going to carry out the activity and be able to coordinate the cleaning and maintenance services, with which schools are provided during their implementation.
Likewise, this service allows to optimize the resources necessary for the development of the activity, such as cleaning or surveillance, to improve the organization of maintenance tasks, as well as to favor social relations between the different educational centers, thus generating spaces for coexistence and participation.
