Activities
Staying in the class all day does get tiring.
It also does not allow for our students to enjoy the beauty of
nature and culture that Quetzaltenango and Guatemala has to offer.
To help with this, we organize weekly activities and trips. These
activities are in the form of movies, lectures, documentaries and
group lessons. We also take hikes to indigenous villages, visit
many area NGO's and meet with local community organizations.
For those that want to see more of the
surrounding area and enjoy the beauty of the land and people, the
school also takes weekly excursions such as volcano hikes and
trips to the beach, hot springs, hot baths, steam baths and area
markets. Some of the places that we visit are:
Hike Santa María Volcano
Mayan Ruins at Abaj Takalik
Beach at Champerico and Monterico
Hike La Muela
Las Fuentes Georginas Hot Springs
La Leguna de Chicabal Crater Lake
Villa Alicia Swimming Pool
Mariposario and Lake at Panajachel
Markets at San Francisco el Alto, Momostenango and Totonicapán
