Andalucia Day Breakfast

Aloha College is celebrating its own Andalucia Day on Friday 25 February, starting off with a delicious breakfast of bread and locally-made olive oil. Most of this day’s activities will be related to Andalucia’s special day, and we hope the children will mirror the Andalusian flag by dressing in green and white!

Years 10-12 Visit French Theatre Malaga

Over 40 Aloha students from Years 10-12, accompanied by 3 French teachers, went to see “Le Jour de la Marmotte” by the Recursos, Haz Teatring theatre company in Malaga, which consisted of four actors acting in several roles during the show.

Year 5 visit to Picasso Museum Malaga

Early in the spring term, year 5 paid a second visit to the city of Malaga; this time to visit the museum that is dedicated to the work of the world renowned, locally born artist, Pablo Picasso. On arriving in the Plaza de la Merced, the children were able to view his actual place of birth and trace the steps through the squares where he spent his early childhood.

LAMDA Exams

The commitment and effort of the 38 Aloha Students who sat their LAMDA examinations has once again been well rewarded, as evidenced by the outstanding grades they have just received for the November examination session. In order to achieve these results many students gave up their lunch times and stayed after school to prepare their examination pieces.
