An Extraordinary Journey Through Ancient Egypt: The Immersive Cleopatra Exhibition

Our students visited the spectacular Cleopatra immersive exhibition at Matadero in Madrid—a 2,000 square meter space that transported them to ancient Egypt like never before.

The 360° immersive projections enveloped students in history, while stunning holograms brought pharaohs and ancient Egyptians to vivid life—making history tangible in ways textbooks cannot.

An interactive metaverse component let students actively participate in the ancient world, sparking curiosity and genuine excitement as they discovered each new element.

Students didn’t just learn about Cleopatra and ancient Egypt—they experienced it firsthand, demonstrating the profound impact immersive, experiential learning has on their growth and understanding.

🌟 What a fantastic way to end the term and celebrate another successful year of After School Activities at St George Madrid! 🌟

Our students have enjoyed an incredible range of clubs throughout the year, exploring their talents and passions through music, art, drama, sports, dance, and so much more.

This week, we were delighted to showcase the hard work and dedication of our students with wonderful performances from our Modern Dance, Flamenco, Ballet, and Musical Club groups. Their confidence, creativity, and enthusiasm shone on stage, making it a truly memorable celebration.

A huge thank you to our staff, coaches, and instructors for inspiring our students, and to our families for their continued support. We are so proud of everything our children have achieved through our extra-curricular programme this year.

We can’t wait to see what next year brings! 🎭🎨🎵⚽💃

🔬🧪 Our Year 5 students enjoyed a special science lesson this week as they visited the secondary science laboratories to experiment with Bunsen burners for the very first time!

The children took part in an engaging and practical hands-on lesson, learning how to use scientific equipment safely while exploring exciting scientific concepts. It was wonderful to see their curiosity, enthusiasm and confidence grow as they worked like real scientists in a secondary school laboratory setting.

A fantastic learning experience that sparked plenty of excitement for future science investigations! 🔥✨

Yesterday, our Reception students went on an exciting class trip to Dino Experience at ABC Serrano! 🦖✨

The children had an amazing time exploring the dinosaurs and taking part in lots of fun hands-on activities to celebrate the end of their “Dinosaur Detectives” topic. From discovering fascinating facts to becoming real little palaeontologists for the day, it was a fantastic learning adventure filled with excitement, curiosity, and smiles! 🦕🔍

🌍✨ Earth Day at St George Madrid ✨🌍

Our Upper Primary students took part in a fantastic Earth Day Speech Competition, delivering speeches as though they were speaking as the Earth itself. In front of fellow students, teachers, and parents, they shared powerful and thought-provoking messages about how we can all help protect our planet. 🌱💚

We were incredibly impressed by the confidence, creativity, and passion shown in every speech. Each student delivered strong and meaningful ideas that inspired everyone listening.

Meanwhile, our youngest learners from Reception to Year 2 celebrated Earth Day through art and science by creating wonderful dioramas showing the Earth as seen from the Moon. 🌎🌕 Their projects were an amazing display of imagination, artistic talent, and scientific understanding.

We are incredibly proud of all the children who took part and the enthusiasm they showed in celebrating and caring for our world. 🌍💫

As an exciting entry point to their IPC topic Making Waves, Year 4 visited the Balloon Museum. Through immersive installations filled with colour, movement, sound, and light, the children explored how waves can be seen and heard in creative and interactive ways. The experience sparked curiosity and encouraged the children to think about how sound and light travel, setting the stage for their learning throughout the topic. The visit was full of wonder, creativity, and hands-on exploration, making it a memorable start to Making Waves.

Our Primary & Secondary Sports Day, held on Tuesday 21st April, was a fantastic celebration of energy, teamwork, and determination! 🏃‍♂️🏅

From our youngest students taking their very first races to our oldest competitors giving it their all, the day was filled with incredible moments and a true spirit of sportsmanship. Every cheer, every effort, and every finish line crossed showed what it means to support one another and strive for your best.

A huge well done to all our students for their enthusiasm and positive attitude, and thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a success!
