Visit of six Danish teachers

On February 18th and 19th, we welcomed six Danish teachers who came to learn more about our adult language teaching model, following their initial visit last October.

In the classroom, they shared experiences with our students and were able to observe our commitment to inclusive education firsthand, adapted to the diversity of ages, backgrounds, learning paces, and profiles. The connections created with the students were especially enriching and inspiring for everyone involved. 🤝✨

The experience extended beyond the classroom with a comprehensive cultural tour of our region. On Wednesday, they explored the Medieval Quarter of Bocairent with a local guide, captivated by its heritage, and also visited ‘El Angosto’ winery 🍇 in Ontinyent, where they learned about the characteristics of the land, climate, and crops that define our region.

On Thursday, they immersed themselves in the essence of the Moors and Christians festival by attending the children’s Mid-Year Parade, experiencing firsthand the music and passion that define us. They also enjoyed a session with English students at Casa del Delme and delved deeper into our history with a guided tour in English of Vila Palace and the air-raid shelter.

A week full of shared learning, culture, local traditions, and beauty that will continue in April when our teachers and students travel to Denmark as part of the Erasmus+ program. 🇪🇺

💬 Education connects people. Languages connect cultures. See you in Copenhagen in April, friends!

Sis professors danesos ens visiten

Els dies 18 i 19 de febrer vam rebre la visita de sis docents danesos que van voler aprofundir en el nostre model d’ensenyament de llengües per a adults, després d’una primera visita el passat octubre.

A l’aula, van compartir experiències amb el nostre alumnat i van poder observar de prop la nostra aposta per una educació inclusiva, adaptada a la diversitat d’edats, trajectòries, ritmes d’aprenentatge i perfils. Les sinèrgies creades amb l’estudiantat han sigut especialment enriquidores i inspiradores per a ambdues parts 🤝✨

L’experiència va anar molt més enllà de l’aula, amb un complet recorregut cultural pel nostre entorn. Dimecres van descobrir el Barri Medieval de Bocairent de la mà d’un guia local, quedant captivats pel seu patrimoni, i també van visitar la bodega Bodega El Angosto 🍇, a Ontinyent, on van conéixer les característiques del terreny, el clima i els cultius que defineixen la nostra terra. Dijous es van endinsar en l’essència de les festes de Moros i Cristians assistint a la desfilada del Mig Any infantil, vivint de prop la música i la passió que ens identifiquen. A més, van gaudir d’una sessió amb alumnes d’anglés de l’escola a la Casa del Delme i van aprofundir en la nostra història amb una visita guiada en anglés al Palau de la Vila i al refugi antiaeri.

Una setmana plena d’aprenentatge compartit, cultura, territori i bellesa que continuarà a l’abril, quan el nostre professorat i alumnat viatjarà a Dinamarca dins del programa Erasmus+ 🇪🇺

💬 L’educació connecta persones. Les llengües connecten cultures. Ens retrobem a Copenhague en abril, amics!

Second Erasmus+ mobility with students in Ireland

The Erasmus+ mobility in Ireland became an unforgettable experience for both students and teachers. During an intense and enriching week, participants immersed themselves in a journey of cultural discovery, historical reflection and European connection.

From November 15 to 21, the group explored the Gaelic region of Donegal, discovering the richness of the Irish language and culture, while also gaining a deeper understanding of recent history through the study of the Spanish conflict and the Peace Process in Derry and Belfast.

Some of the most moving moments included the visit to Gaelscoil Éadain Mhóir, where all subjects are taught in Gaelic, the powerful Bloody Sunday tour led by a relative of one of the victims, and the close contact with local music and traditions, which brought Irish culture vividly to life.

The experience came to an end in Belfast, surrounded by a warm Christmas atmosphere that provided the perfect setting for meaningful intercultural exchange and the strengthening of bonds between European students.

This mobility, which beautifully combined learning, shared experiences and cultural exchange, has left a lasting impression on everyone involved.

Two Danish teachers visit our school

🌍 The European adventure continues at the EOI La Vall d’Albaida! ✨

Last October, 2, we received the visit of two teachers from an educational centre in Denmark who were delighted with everything that our area and our school offer, and who will come up with very interesting interchange proposals. 🤝
We will provide more details very soon, but… will Denmark be our next Erasmus+ destination? 👀

Assistència Jornada Erasmus+ Convocatòria 2026

El passat dimecres 21 de gener, les professores Loles i Maria van participar en la Jornada Erasmus+ Convocatòria 2026 a València, adreçada als sectors d’Educació Escolar i Educació de Persones Adultes de la Comunitat Valenciana.

Representants de la Unitat de Programes Europeus i d’Europe Direct van exposar les principals línies d’actuació europees en l’àmbit educatiu.

Al llarg del matí es van presentar els aspectes clau del programa Erasmus+ 2026, amb especial atenció a les oportunitats de mobilitat per a l’aprenentatge (KA1) i als projectes de cooperació (KA2), així com experiències reals de centres educatius de la Comunitat Valenciana.

La jornada va finalitzar amb l’espai «Quilòmetres d’aprenentatge», que va posar de manifest l’impacte positiu dels projectes Erasmus+ en la formació del professorat i en la qualitat de l’ensenyament, reforçant el compromís de la nostra EOI amb una educació oberta, inclusiva i europea.

De la jornada destaquem especialment els recursos que la Comissió Europea posa a que l’abast de tots els joves. Per exemple, la plataforma DiscoverEU ofereix moltes oportunitats laborals, estudis, beques, voluntariats, etc. Us animem a visitar-la i descobrir un món de possibilitats!

Eixida cultural de l’alumnat de francés

Un xicotet grup d’alumnat de francés de la nostra Escola Oficial d’Idiomes, acompanyat per la seua professora Marie Jo, va assistir el diumenge 11 de gener a la representació de Els xiquets del cor (Les Choristes) al Teatre Olympia de València.

L’experiència va ser molt positiva: el grup va gaudir molt de l’espectacle i va eixir encantat tant per l’obra com pel bon ambient de l’eixida. Sense dubte, va ser una manera excel·lent d’apropar-se a la llengua i la cultura franceses fora de l’aula.

Des de l’EOI continuem apostant per aquest tipus d’activitats culturals que fan de l’aprenentatge una experiència més viva i motivadora.

Our EOI lived an unforgettable Erasmus+ experience in Finland

From April 27th to May 3rd, a group of nine students and two teachers from the ‘EOI La Vall d’Albaida’ participated in a training stay in Finland as part of the Erasmus+ programme, hosted by Mercuria Business College in Vantaa.

Throughout the week, the students participated in activities with Finnish students, such as workshops on theater applied to the business world, comparing work situations, and creating multilingual glossaries. They also had the opportunity to learn about the Finnish education system and the innovative methodologies used.

The cultural visits included iconic sites such as Seurasaari Island, the Oodi Library, Suomenlinna Fortress, and Nuuksio National Park, where they enjoyed a pícnic and traditional games in the heart of nature. The celebration of the Vappu festival provided an opportunity to experience one of the country’s most beloved traditions up close.

This Erasmus+ experience has been a unique opportunity to foster intercultural coexistence, improve students’ linguistic and personal skills, and enrich teachers’ teaching practices.

At the ‘EOI La Vall d’Albaida-Empar Granell’ we would like to express our gratitude for the Mercuria center’s welcome and reaffirm our commitment to open, European, and transformative education.

Erasmus+ stay in Dublin

Good morning everyone!

I want to tell you about my Erasmus experience in Dublin. In August 2023 I spent time there thanks to the Erasmus+ programme. In Dublin, I was able to learn new methodological and didactic techniques related to language teaching, and not only that, I made contact with other professionals from all over Europe!

This way, when I came back, I was able to put everything I had learned into practice in the classroom. My goal is to motivate students and show them that learning a foreign language is not only easy, but also fun. It was a fantastic experience!

Erasmus+ stay in Vantaa (Finland)

From November 12th to 19th, our colleague Marta completed an Erasmus+ stay in Vantaa, Finland, at the Mercuria school. There, she visited a vocational and adult education centre, where she was able to observe the way of working in this country, ranked first in education worldwide. She also received specific training on the education system and the methodologies used. This is what she tells us 🧏🏻:

“Hello! Thanks to our Erasmus+ project, I had the opportunity to travel to Finland and see how other European centres work. The experience was very enriching because I was able to learn not only from my Finnish colleagues, but also from the students. I felt very well supported and guided thanks to their warm welcome. Furthermore, it opened the doors to future student exchanges, which is our ultimate goal with this Erasmus+ project. Quite an experience! 👏🏽”

Stay tuned for more news, this is just the beginning!

Munich mobility

Loles and Maria visited a multicultural centre that respects other cultures

 
Our first Erasmus+ project is moving forward very well!

This time, our colleagues Loles and Maria participated in a very interesting mobility programme in Munich, Germany, from March 17 to 23.

They visited a dual baccalaureate and vocational training school where they were able to observe how language classes work (German, English, and Spanish for foreigners) and also experienced the German education system firsthand.

They concluded their visit to Germany very successfully, creating bonds with the school’s foreign language teachers, taking advantage of new learning experiences and methodologies, and discovering new teaching spaces.

We hope to continue collaborating with this school in the near future to facilitate mobility programmes for our students and thus continue our goal of becoming a European school and a benchmark in the region.

The students of the Spanish classes welcomed us with enthusiasm
Maria and Loles actively participated in classes
Very modern installations and spaces to work autonomously
