Our Year 7 students recently enjoyed a fascinating educational visit to the Valltorta Museum, one of the most important sites for prehistoric rock art in Spain.
During the trip, students explored the museum’s exhibitions, where they learned about the lifestyle, environment and artistic expression of early human communities. The visit continued outdoors, with a guided walk to the rock shelters of the Cova dels Cavalls, where they were able to observe the original Neolithic paintings in their natural setting—an unforgettable experience that brought their learning to life.
To complete the day, students took part in a hands-on workshop on prehistoric art, experimenting with techniques and materials similar to those used thousands of years ago. This practical activity encouraged creativity while deepening their understanding of early human communication and symbolism.
This visit provided a valuable opportunity to connect classroom learning with real-world experiences, fostering curiosity and a deeper appreciation of our shared history.
