Visiting Frailes

It was raining when our visit to Frailes began. The visit was held on 26th October. We first visited a wine factory, where we could see how the local wine is made. We could even taste some kind of wines made there. Later, we went to a company started by a family, which is specialized in cheese production. They make several sorts of cheese, which have won lots of prizes. We could again taste them. Yummy!


Our next stop was at another small company, which produces some of the best pork delicatessen in the local area. We could taste everything, and everyone was amazed with these products, because they had never tasted them before. Every single person in town was so kind with us and they didn't hesitate in offering us whatever we needed.

We were driven later to the town hall, where the principal welcomed us. They gave us a little speech and also some presents.

We, then, went to an oil factory which is the smallest in the world. It´s placed inside a particular house, in a small room. Its owner is one of the most famous and loved men in Frailes. He´s an authentical man, and a complete idol.

Our journey finished in the restaurant El Choto, where we had a fantastic lunch. We could share our opinions and talk about what we had seen.

However, this is not what we liked the most. The best thing about doing this kind of activities is that it lets us improve our English because we have to deal with several everyday life issues and it also gets us used to hearing and understanding another language. The greatest thing about this is that we could also meet some marvellous people from different countries, learn about their lifestyle, their culture and moreover, we made awesome friends.

Comenius teachers visiting IES Alfonso XI.

During the first visit to Spain, one the activities was planned in order to get in contact spanish pupils with foreigner teachers was to get into the classes.

So, in two different days, 2 hours every day, was possible to see things like this:
  • Spanish pupils speak in greek
  • Spanish pupils being very curious about the culture, traditions, and of course about pupils from teachers came from. They wanted to know many things, so they asked many questions.
For the spanish teachers participating in the Comenius project was a very good experience, we enjoyed a lot seeing everything was happening.
