Activities
Travel
The trips organised by the school are part of the curriculum. Therefore, they have a correlation with the topics covered during the year, such as commodity chains, history, geography and economics, among others. Some entertainment and sport activities are also included in the trips. Starting from 3rd form, students travel outside the city of Neuquén. In secondary school, students have the opportunity to participate in international exchanges where they attend classes in English for a few weeks.
Robotics
The school’s proposal in the field of robotics is planned across all levels, from early childhood education to secondary school, gradually increasing the complexity of the contents.
An emphasis is placed on students acquiring knowledge and understanding of how digital and technological systems that they use daily operate. The hypothetical-deductive method, commonly known as the scientific method, is employed in the classroom.
