Pupils, parents and teachers from Sant Ciriac School enjoy a day of nature and outdoor learning around Cala Boix and Campanitx Tower.
Around 20 people, including parents and pupils from Sant Ciriac School, accompanied by three teachers, took part in a day of outdoor activities and community bonding along different parts of the Santa Eulària coastline on 7 November.
The excursion included visits to Cala Boix and Campanitx Tower, where participants were able to enjoy views across the Mediterranean towards the nearby island of Tagomago.
The outing was organised as part of the PROA+ programme, in which the school participates, specifically through an initiative called School for Families, Families at School (Escuela de Familias, Familias en la Escuela). The programme organises walks through Ibiza’s natural surroundings to encourage closer relationships between families, pupils and teaching staff.
The day was supported by The Other Face and its guide, Donovan Cruces, who accompanied the group throughout the route. He also organised a nature discovery activity for the younger participants, encouraging them to search for natural objects and explore the distinctive features of the surrounding landscape.
Sant Ciriac School Already Planning Its Next Excursion
Among those taking part was Blanca, a Year 2 primary school pupil, who summed up her experience by saying that the things she enjoyed most were “being with my friends and the snails”, according to information provided by the school.
The school’s management team is already preparing the next outing, which will take place in the s’Estanyol area.
The walk was initially planned for Cala Mastella, but the route has been changed because of walls that collapsed following the latest severe weather event (DANA).
The school highlights how these activities help strengthen relationships between families and the wider school community, while giving pupils the opportunity to learn, explore and share experiences beyond the classroom.
