Not sure what to do with the kids this summer? As we all know the school holidays here are much longer and lovely beaches,and it is a great opportunity to get them away from television and psp's and get exercise and fressh air whilst enjoying themselves. Many will spend time at the beach or in a pool, unfortunately the roads become too busy to make cycling viable for children.
But even with all this children sometimes need a little more and parents need some time out from taxi-ing and chaperoning!!!To this end there are many summer courses for children, both private and town hall. Some courses can be residential- usually one week, others are daily throughout July and August. Prices vary depending on the level of coaching or equipment used. I shall try to list them along with details of registration.
Summer sports school -Escola de estui,Xabia 2008 -from 9am to 2pm daily from 1st to 15th July and 16th to 30th July. This covers many different types of sport, badminton, basketball, swimming dance orienteering, cycling and many more. It is available to children born in the years 1995 to 2001(7-13) and costs 56.70 euros for each 15 day session. To register you go to the sports hall in Javea Port ( telephone 965792000)and choose the courses you want your child to do and they will produce a document you will have to pay at a bank. Remember that although the courses are taught in spanish, many of the instructors understand english and as it is a practical subject it is a case of watch and copy.
