Activities in Spanish School in Malaga

Excursions, cultural visits and activities are very important part of the learning process and enhance the students’ understanding of our rich and varied culture. To achieve this, Erasmus Language offers several courses – theoretical and practical – and complementary cultural activities. That is why throughout each month we organize visits to museums, churches and the most symbolic areas of Malaga.

You will also have the opportunity to meet local people through “intercambios”, language exchanges with native speakers outside the classroom. Sometimes you will speak in Spanish with your intercambio and other times in your mother tongue or another language you speak well.

Most of this visits and activities are free of charge and are scheduled in the afternoons and evenings during the week as well as on Saturdays and Sundays (weekend trips). On the first day of class students receive an information folder including a list of the month’s program of cultural activities indicating dates of the excursions and cost, if any.

The school organizes a varied programme of social activities for students (such as excursions to Grenada, Cordoba, Seville, Jaen, North Africa etc.), parties, guided tours to the sights of Malaga, such as la Alcazaba, the Archaeology Museum, Roman Theatre, Museum of Fine Art, Cathedral, Ayuntamiento, Santiago Church etc.

In Malaga you can wander from the Muslim fortress of the Alcazaba to the impressive Roman theatre. The city is also the venue for the internationally acclaimed Museum Picasso, which was opened as recently as 2003.

Malaga is famous for their festivals and there is a good chance that you course could coincide with one of the many festivals in the city or the surrounding area. In February and March it is carnival time. In summer (15/8) there is the Feria de Málaga in the Andalusian city.
