In the 2022/23 school year, we received funding from Leargas to offer the Erasmus Plus programme for the second time. The project, entitled “The Way to El Camino” involved nine students and five teachers from Coláiste Na Ríochta and twelve students and five teachers from IES Escultor Daniel in Logroño, Spain working together on a joint venture. Our students and teachers travelled to Spain in March 2023, getting
the opportunity to walk some of the Camino de Santiago and experiencing the wonderful culture and food that Spain has to offer. We then had the pleasure of welcoming our Spanish partners in April, during which time they had the opportunity to walk some of the Kerry Camino. The project itself is a wonderful opportunity for staff and students alike, embracing language and cultural diversity in a fun and energetic way. A sincere thank you must go to Maria Segade for organising this initiative and to her counterpart in Spain, Ava who we hope to work with again in the future. Well done to all involved.
