ESCUELAS VALENCIANAS

Leslie and Meg had a look...




...at the private English-language schools while in Valencia a couple weeks ago. There are a number of highly-regarded "escuelas ingleses" in the upscale suburbs in the hilly areas that are 15 to 20 minutes north and northeast of downtown. The homes in these hills have an excellent view of downtown and the sea, and it is as much as 5 degree (C) cooler during the hot summer months.



Football (soccer to you Yanks) is of course the number one sport, and every school has at least one football "pitch." The one pictured below is at a school which did not make Meg's and Leslie's shortlist, as the administration did not seem very level-headed.
