Urkideak

Structured leisure time group, this is a space where you can establish relationships, create projects, experience values, have meaningful experiences, build citizenship, learn from life… Each age group is related to a stage of the water cycle in Basque. The rain will allow knowledge and experience to be passed on to restart the water cycle:

These are the different stages:
Ur tantak (water drops):
7-9 years; corresponding to 3rd and 4th grades of Primary Education.

IturRiak (springs, source):
10-11 years; corresponding to 5th and 6th grades of Primary Education.

ErreKak (streams):
12-13 years old; corresponding to 1st and 2nd grades of Secondary Education.

IbaIak (rivers):
14-15 years old; corresponding to 3rd and 4th grades of Secondary Education.

HoDeiak (clouds):
16-17 years old; corresponding to 1st and 2nd grades of Baccalaureate.

Euriak (rain):
Finally, the educational team of monitors would be in Euriak (rain), completing the water cycle. The rain will allow knowledge and experience to be passed on to restart the water cycle.

Following the metaphor of the Water Cycle – UrZikloa, the educational project will be divided into three working channels – Urbideak (water paths):
1.- Of the Person.
2.- Of the individual in society.
3.- Of the person in their relationship with Nature.

Trilingualism (English, Basque and Spanish) is used, with flexibility according to the educational team and the activities to be carried out, as well as the participants.
It is important that families, being one of the pillars of the children’s education, actively accompany their children in this integral education project.
