With the start of the second quarter, the Ibiza Town Hall has updated its catalog of educational activities with 340 proposals aimed at kindergarten, primary, secondary and high school students. This year, the program not only seeks to complement academic training, but also to make it more attractive with immersive experiences, team challenges and outdoor adventures.
Environmental escape room: Posidonia in your hands
One of the most striking plans is an escape room at the Can Casals farmhouse, where students will have to solve riddles to decipher a key message about the conservation of posidonia. Tests, riddles and challenges will make them understand the impact of plastics on the marine ecosystem, all within a game of strategy and teamwork.
Time Travel: A Day in the 1940s
Can you imagine living as your grandparents did in the 1940s? In this activity, students will have to put aside their cell phones and watches to immerse themselves in the past. They will draw water from the cistern, prepare home remedies, play with traditional toys and learn how to make soap from recycled oils. A unique experience to understand life without technology and with a strong link to nature.
Discovering Dalt Vila with pirates and explorers
History comes to life in the tours of Dalt Vila, where children can follow a tale of pirates, knights and princesses as they explore the fortress. For older children, the experience becomes a game of explorers, with compasses and maps to help them discover the secrets of the walled city.
Astronomy and mythology under Ibiza’s sky
Science also has its place with an astronomy workshop, where students will learn to identify constellations and learn about the mythological stories surrounding them. They will create their own planisphere and explore the influence of the Moon on the Earth, in a session that combines observation and crafts.
Construction of insect hotels: Engineers for a day
In this hands-on activity, students will design and build small shelters for bees and other pollinating insects. They will learn about the importance of these animals in nature and how their disappearance would affect food production.
How to participate in the activities
Interested schools and institutes can apply for participation in these activities through the Application Form in the document “Municipal Educational Offer”. All information is available on the website of the City Council of Ibiza: www.eivissa.es.
This year’s educational program not only seeks to reinforce knowledge, but to do so in an interactive and entertaining way, so that students learn while enjoying unforgettable experiences.
