At Campoalegre School, our goal is to involve all alumni and members of the community in our limitless teaching and learning process, full of possibilities. Where the mind and soul can develop without barriers and with freedom.
Excursions offer a space for students to learn, grow and mature through different types of challenging experiences. In our excursions, not only do students become more autonomous; they also become very well aware of their surroundings. We travel to different regions of our country as well as other continents. In Colombia we have been to Guajira, Amazonas, Chocó, Llanos, and San Agustin, to name just a few. Wherever we go, not only do we interact with local people. For teachers and students, sharing this time together creates close bonds with everyone; this selflessness helps them be concerned with every individual in the group. We also get to know the region itself and its surroundings, and eventually most of our country.
This is definitely a landmark in Campoalegre, for it is a school project where students, teachers, administrators and school helpers all come together to work as one: music, dance, art, stage scenery, props, lights, sound, theatrical skills. At the beginning of every school year, the seniors decide which musical they want to set up. Not only do musicals enhance academic learning; they also develop a sense of responsibility in those involved, making it a fun process with precise goals that have to be achieved according to a timeline. Musicals are so important in Campoalegre, that the children in Pre-school have set up their own dance musical which they present in Halloween.
A student learns interacting on a daily basis with the world around him. More than transmitting knowledge, the students build it by themselves.
This program offered for Juniors and Seniors gives these students the chance to explore other types of knowledge.
We are fully aware that students have an outstanding creative capacity and imagination. These workshops allow students to discover new passions by exploring areas of interest not available in the general curriculum: jewelry, woodwork, ceramics, photography, artistic expressions, orchestra, modern dancing. They learn how to communicate their necessities, interests and even concerns in new ways, even to the point of expressing their personal criticism about a given situation.
Sport, in addition to being a fundamental part of well-being and health, brings together and helps in the integral formation of children and young people. Sports activities promote psychomotor, mental, personal and social development. Campoalegre School offers and works different sports, both in team and individual disciplines, which are transversal from preschool to high school.
The school is situated in natural surroundings which we protect and respect dearly. Our ecological trail allows students to enjoy firsthand the animals, trees and plants that live in this forest, out in the wild, untouched by man.
Colegio Campoalegre was founded in 1978 as a place to seek and experience happiness through learning. This is why we believe in learning experiences from different angles, always placing the students at the center of the entire process. We strive for our students to develop their critical thinking so that they can contribute in a creative, active and positive way to the world where they live. The idea is for them to have the courage to be, and to have the initiative to start significant changes around them.
Campoalegre is located in a natural forest reserve and we are fortunate to be able to breathe fresh air day after day.
