The Summer Children's Schools are already underway in 11 centers in Cartagena.

Around 1,300 children under the age of 12 can benefit from the activities that are being taught.

In the integrated schools in this initiative of the Department of Education of the City of Cartagena, participants have dining service and workshops with which to spend their free time.

The mayor, Ana Belén Castejón;

the vice mayor, Noelia Arroyo;

and the Councilor for Education, Irene Ruiz, visited on Monday, July 8, the activities that are being carried out in one of them: the CEIP Stella Maris in the Barriada Virgen de la Caridad.

Knowledge of personal hygiene, academic training, and a healthy diet are taught in these summer nursery schools.

As for the participating children, those from families with economic difficulties have had priority.

An "unequivocal" sample, says the mayor of Cartagena Ana Belén Castejón, that the City Council is with those who need it most.

Although several of the activities have an additional cost, some of them are totally free for participants, such as Summer Schools with a Dining Room, which pursue the double objective of guaranteeing adequate food for children during the summer season as well. facilitate family and work-life balance for those students whose parents continue to work.
