Primary Facilities
With panoramic views of the Mediterranean, the Primary School Site has excellent facilities which create the perfect learning environment, purposefully designed to meet the needs of the pupils at each stage of their development.
The main building has 30 large air-conditioned classrooms with interactive whiteboards, plus specialty teaching spaces for music and information and communications technology (ICT). The Year 5 and 6 building includes classrooms, an ICT suite, offices, a playground, and sporting areas designed to give Years 5 and 6 more space.
The Early Learning Years (ages 1 to 5 years old) have an area designated for our youngest students. Each classroom in the Early Learning Area is arranged to support early language and physical development. They each have access to an enclosed patio with outside play areas that have soft fall flooring, excellent playground equipment, and access to water and sand trays. The main building also contains a Psychomotor Room, which is full of play equipment specifically designed to enhance and develop the motor skills of our youngest children. The specialised equipment allows them to experiment with different movements and actions and to learn the limitations and capabilities of their bodies in a safe and controlled environment.
Children of all ages enjoy their ICT lessons in the purpose-built ICT facilities: one in the main building and one in the Year 5 and 6 building. The pupils have access to a wide range of computer software: word processing, multimedia presentations, drawing, programming, databases, and spreadsheets. They can also access information and websites on the internet in a safe and secure environment. To enhance their learning opportunities further, pupils have access to tablets, which are used for various activities and projects.
Music lessons take place in the music rooms, which are equipped with a wide range of instruments. Two separate rooms are also dedicated to individual music lessons that students can sign up for, such as piano, drums, violin and guitar.
Outdoor play areas in the Primary School are large and separated into areas for specific age groups. Each area has age-appropriate play equipment and shaded areas for children to choose how they wish to spend their playtime. The grounds also contain a garden area, where pupils love to grow vegetables and flowers and look for bugs!
The library is a very popular place to visit. It provides an opportunity for the students to choose engaging books from our varied and exciting collection of fiction and non-fiction. Students can also choose if they want to read a book in English or Spanish! There are also a large number of board games and puzzles for the students to enjoy in a relaxed and comfortable environment.
The heated indoor swimming pool, indoor gymnasium, and sports court are used on a daily basis for PE classes and after school for Plus Clubs. All pupils swim weekly throughout the year and are given high-quality swimming instruction from an early age, including water safety instruction, water polo, and synchronized swimming. There are changing rooms in the swimming pool complex and next to the gymnasium.
For a relaxed lunch, the Dining Room is spacious, bright, and cheerful with a wonderful view of the Mediterranean Sea. There is a daily dining service available, which encourages a healthy diet.
We are very proud of our fantastic facilities, which offer opportunities for all children to access their education in an engaging, vibrant, and refined environment.
