Kitchen, design, art and self-esteem are some of the important issues for many retirees.
For two weeks, 30 more will fight the heat and learn history of their city, to make t-shirts or, for example, to sculpt the submarine pear in the Summer School organized the Municipal Institute of Social Services.
For the fourth consecutive year, a group of retirees back to school in summer.
Most of them are already known from previous years.
The hours spent at the La Milagrosa is for them a little break from caring for grandchildren and another opportunity to stay busy, as some of them suffer from diseases such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's, and to meet people.
Most retirees have come forward this morning in the class that will be until July 12. Until one of them, Bernardina Macia, has moved from Alicante just to attend summer courses for seniors. My family is there vacationing and I like both the courses here are not hard for me to come every day.
It helps me forget the problems he says.
Among the activities to be undertaken include specific workshops such as design, expressions, group dynamics, lectures, art, cooking, laughter therapy, self-esteem and cultural visit.
The schedule of the Summer Schools is 10 to 12.30.
Also, Councilman Social Care, Antonio Calderon, recalled that this initiative is to offer the elderly, who do not have the opportunity to travel to resort areas, meeting places where they will develop socio-cultural activities appropriate to their demands and needs.
