At ELIS Murcia, we are committed to creating a personalized educational experience for all our students, and our latest initiative is an exciting step in this direction! Following the successful completion of the “Design Your School” workshop on December 12th, Year 7 students took center stage, contributing ideas that will help transform the Galileo building into the future Galileo Middle School, set to open in September 2025.

This workshop, facilitated by expert architects, gave our students a hands-on opportunity to reimagine their learning spaces. Divided into small teams, the students brainstormed, sketched, and presented their ideas for key areas of the building, including classrooms, common areas, and outdoor spaces. The enthusiasm, creativity, and collaboration they displayed were truly inspiring.

 

A Unique Learning Environment

Galileo Middle School will serve as a dedicated space for Year 7 and Year 8 students, designed to provide a smooth transition between Primary and Secondary education. With tailored facilities and an environment that nurtures academic, social, and emotional development, the remodeled building reflects our dedication to personalization and innovation.

This transformation is made possible through the support of Cognita, our global family of schools, whose expertise and investment have been instrumental in bringing this project to life. The ideas generated during the workshop will be carefully considered as the redesign progresses, ensuring that the final space truly reflects the needs and preferences of our students.

 

A Day to Remember

The workshop was a resounding success, offering our students a meaningful role in shaping their future learning environment. In addition to fostering creativity, the activity highlighted the importance of collaboration and ownership in their educational journey.

As we move forward, this is just the beginning of a thrilling project aimed at creating an inspiring and dynamic space for our students. We will continue to provide updates as construction begins and progresses.
