On August 20, 1868, a new ball court was opened on the street of Pelayo, next to the North Station, which would receive the name of the street, not yet drawn: “Trinquet Pelayo”.

This sports facility, is known as the Cathedral of the “Escala i corda”, and is one of the most famous ball courts, where the finals of important competitions such as Bancaixa’ Circuit are usually held.

In this activity that will take place on 18TH of December, experienced players, will give a presentation on the theoretical foundations and basic rules of “Raspall”. Finally, a practical session will be conducted in order to work with newly learned skills in a playful way.

In this practice, specific warming exercises from “Raspall” will be realized and this day will conclude with a small mini tournament in which the basic rules will be remembered.

Trees don’t stop growing until they die and each year they are larger in height and thickness. This does not happen with palm trees because they are not trees but giant herbs that only grow thick when they are young.

In this workshop, we will learn how trees grow, the differences between monocotilédonea (like palms) and dicotilédoneas (like oaks), how to count the growth rings and recognize what happens to a tree through its trunk.

As a practice, the technique called Nendo-Dango will be carried out, which consists of making clay balls with seeds of Mediterranean plants that are ready to reforest. These balls can be thrown into the forest or planted each in your home or school.

Molt prop de la Plaça de l’Ajuntament de València se situa el Mercat Central, considerat un dels més grans d’Europa. Inaugurat a l’any 1928, és un lloc ideal tant per a fer la compra com per admirar una bonica arquitectura, ja que aquest edifici està considerat com una de les obres mestres del modernisme valencià.

Aprofitarem l’estudi que realitzen els alumnes d’Educació Infantil al voltant dels diferents oficis des de l’àrea de Ciències Socials per tal de visitar un dels espais als quals es concentra una major quantitat i varietat de comerços. A més de saber on s’ubiquen i quines característiques tenen cadascuna de les professions i comerços dins del Mercat Central, observarem els trets més representatius tant de la seua arquitectura interior i exterior.

“Ad Libitum Quintet” surge de la iniciativa de un grupo de músicos valencianos que proceden de distintos ámbitos profesionales, como es el ámbito sinfónico y la docencia. En concreto forman un quinteto de viento, una de las agrupaciones camerísticas más importantes gracias a la gran aceptación que ha tenido entre los compositores del sigo XX. Está compuesto por clarinete, flauta, oboe, fagot y trompa; cuatro instrumentos de viento madera y uno de viento metal, todos ellos con una técnica, un timbre y unas posibilidades muy distintas.

Los integrantes de “Ad Libitum Quintet”:
Ana Civera, flauta.
Rodrigo García, oboe.
Carlos Enguídanos, clarinete.
Vicent Almela, fagot.
Higinio Martínez, trompa.

En la actividad que llevarán a cabo en nuestras aulas, el alumnado podrá conocer las características de estos instrumentos y tendrá un contacto directo con la música de cámara. Al mismo tiempo podrá disfrutar con una escucha activa de obras musicales de varias épocas y estilos, desde música clásica hasta música más actual.
