NNHS Spain Exchange
Introduction
-
Travel to the historic city of Burgos, a small but vibrant city in north central Spain and historic home of the Cid. Spend 2 weeks attending classes and living with a family from our partner school, while attending classes and visiting historical sites in and around the city. Excursions include trips to the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao and beautiful San Sebastian on the north coast. Our final week is spent traveling with the NNHS chaperones to Madrid and other cities in Spain
What a Typical Day Looks Like
-
Students will spend the first two weeks staying with host families in Burgos. Students will accompany their host student to school each morning where they will spend their time in one of three ways. They will either be visiting classes at the Felix, studying/completing work for their classes back in Newton, or going on excursions to other cities/sights with the group. In week 3, we depart Burgos and spend a week visiting other cities in Spain.
