Susana Labrador, Councillor of Education and Culture, highlighted, "The infant class started at Escoleta Sant Ferran this March and next year the two escoletes will offer the full cycle of early-childhood education for zero- to three-year-olds. Moreover we hope to maintain a waiting list of zero at every level". The councillor stressed that Escoleta Sant Ferran was prepared to expand based on need.
New infant class
Last week the adaptation period began for seven children in the infant group of Escoleta Sant Ferran. The Sant Ferran nursery opened its doors in September, with 27 children starting class in the two groups for one- to two-year-olds and two- to three-year-olds. As for Escoleta Sa Miranda, it currently serves 82 zero- to three-year-olds, seven of whom are infants.

Yesterday three- and four-year-olds in the B group of kindergarteners at Mestre Lluís Andreu School visited the Consell de Formentera fire station and learned first-hand about the work of firefighters. The nine children in this class received theoretical and practical information on first aid and what to do in case of a fire. They were also able to try out equipment such as hoses and portable transceivers. On 25 March, children in group A will go on the same visit.
The Formentera Office of Heritage has provided the island's four primary schools and secondary schools with digital learning material aimed at drawing attention to local heritage. This material is part of the 'Coneix patrimoni' (Know Heritage) initiative launched by the Consell at the end of last year.
