The residential school “San Estanislao de Kostka” is specifically conditioned to host AFS Intercultura’s Summer Youth Camp as well as other groups from around the world during summer time. Classrooms will be converted into bedrooms during summer months so that this prestigious private school has all necessary facilities to host our group at a unique location close to the beach. During the rest of the year about 1.800 pupils are visiting this school.
Its main building was built in the nineteenth century and officially opened in 1882. It was designed by the architect Jeronimo Cuervo. Within those 130years a lot of famous personalities have walked through the hallway such as the philosopher Ortega y Gasset, the writers Manuel Alto Aguirre o Antonio Gala as well as the famous painter Revello deToro, to name a few.
The beach is only 5 minutes walk away from the school and close to the bus station to visit the City Center.
“Life-changing” is hard to describe, yet it’s nearly always the first thing that AFSers say when asked about their experience abroad. “Transformed” is another one. When you return home, if you’re like most AFSers, you’ll bring with you a sense of accomplishment unlike any other. You’ll have gained maturity and independence, discovered new passions, and feel like you can do anything you set your mind to. That transformation isn’t visible only to you, though – others see it as well. AFSers gain critical skills for college and careers, ranging from language fluency to intercultural competence and critical reasoning. “Life-changing” means it’s only the beginning.
