Christmas activities begin this year from December 26 to January 5, every working day this Christmas, not involving any expense for families since this activity is completely free.
They will be held at the CEIP "Vicente Ros", located on Calle Carmen Conde 48. They can attend up to 35 children, between 4 and 12 years old and whose only requirement will be registered in the municipality of Cartagena .
The conciliation between work and family life acquires maximum importance during the holidays, making work time for adults with children compatible during the school vacation period is usually complicated.
The Department of Education, sensitive to these issues launches the Christmas Activities Program in order to facilitate on the one hand family reconciliation and on the other hand offer an alternative leisure to children.
Christmas activities should be understood as urban vacation spaces, favorable places to encourage coexistence and socialization among the participants in a playful way with markedly educational objectives.
The management of free time with which students are once the Christmas holidays started, is a challenge because they do not have enough learning for leisure and, sometimes, the hours in front of the television, console or computer are the only alternative .
Throughout the days of this program various activities will be carried out, such as: storytelling, popular games, juggling workshops, shadow theater or theater with puppets, among others.
All of them directed by a team of monitors specialized in leisure and free time.
The schedule will be from 09:00 to 14:00, every day, being able to request "kangaroo classroom" from 08.00 to 09.00 and from 14.00 to 15.00, thus facilitating the reconciliation of families .
Applications for places for these activities will be made online, through the page: www.cartagena.es/educacion, from Monday, November 27 and until December 10
