On 30 March 2023, the 3rd ESO Bilingual Section students, guided by their teachers Marta Fernández and Dolores Ruiz, had the opportunity to visit IES José Manzano. On arrival, they were greeted by English teachers Javier Mogollo and Jara Salguero, who welcomed them and invited them to participate in an exciting breakout about the film "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". Breakout led by the teacher Guillermo Valadés.

During the activity, several groups were formed to solve different puzzles related to the film. The students worked as a team and demonstrated their problem solving skills and worked together.

Our students also had the opportunity to enjoy several performances by their classmates from IES José Manzano, supported by teacher César Trillo in their performances, so that everyone in the audience could enjoy their artistic skills.

All in all, the visit to IES José Manzano was an exciting and enriching experience for the students of the Bilingual Section. They had the opportunity to practice their skills, work as a team and enjoy the performances.

4K Radio interviews Mar Alonso Quirós

At IES Cuatro Caminos we have had the privilege of having as a guest  Mar Alonso Quirós, a former student of the school, graduated in psychology and with great experience in European programmes. Mar Alonso, together with teachers: Marta Fernández, Carmen Aliseda,and 3rd ESO Bilingual students recorded a radio program based on the opportunities offered by the European Union for young people. 

Mar gave us her experience as a volunteer with refugees in Greece, as well as her participation in the European Solidarity Corps and how to be part of it. She also talked about her participation in Youth Exchanges under the Erasmus+ programme and the opportunities to take part in exchanges or training courses within this programme for all young people. 

Mar Alonso Quirós

We invite you to watch or listen to this programme and learn more about the great opportunities offered by the European Union for young people: teenagers, students, recent graduates and all those interested in personal development, improving their knowledge, improving their professional career or interested in volunteering.

We hope you enjoy the program as much as we did, teachers and students, recording it.

CHRISTMAS 2022

This year, IES Cuatro Caminos has once again broken all expectations and has become a real Christmas story with the wonderful and varied Christmas decorations scattered mainly around the entrance garden, the porch welcoming students to the school and the foyer. 

There have also been many photos taken by students, teachers and non-teaching staff of the school in the cosy Christmas photocall in the foyer. 

The desired 22nd of December started in the best possible way, with a great breakfast of hot chocolate with churros offered by the IES Cuatro Caminos.

The highlight of the morning came with our traditional Christmas gala, held in the SUM and conducted by the Head of Complementary and Extracurricular Activities, Dolores Ruiz. 

The prizes were awarded for the different competitions held during the term: Halloween, Christmas and the Library Competition. Special mention for the student Marina Sosa who won a prize in Halloween with the following card:

But she also manages to win our mini Christmas competition and the first prize in the general Christmas Decorations competition.

Marina received a special prize and all my students, including the teacher Carmen Aliseda, were presented with a Christmas gift.

It is also worth mentioning that the students of the Bilingual Section participated with their tutors and classmates in the Christmas wreath competition:

Finally, the English teacher Marta made two Christmas cards of the group in two of the most striking scenes of this year to wish Christmas greetings to both my students and their parents:
