TEACHING METHODOLOGY

Our teaching methodology of English in Camp Benagéber follows a program of proven effectiveness. During the workshops our native English teachers</strong > they present the syllabus through powerpoint demonstrations with the help of projectors, thus capturing the maximum attention of the students.

After teaching the syllabus, we began a round of questions and answers. The teachers only speak to the students in English, always adapted to the age and level of the students and they must ask and answer in English. When the session of oral expression and comprehension ends, we begin to implement the workshops. Everything to enjoy the summer camps in Valencia.

SOME OF THE ACTIVITIES

Escape the Room

As a new activity we have developed our own escape game based on the games “Escape The Room” that are all the rage in half the world among young people!

The four teams of students will create their own escape game, together with their English teachers, working as a team to escape from the rooms by solving the enigmas, riddles and challenges designed by the opposing teams.

Which group will escape first? The challenge is launched!

The advantage of having experience organizing dives

The experience of several years managing the English camp in Valencia has shown us that the activities of a bivouac : workshops, excursions, multi-adventure, night activities… must be coordinated with each other and to have a bond day by day with a progressive motivation until the end of the camp. All our workshops are linked to each other and to the activities of multi-adventure in the form of a contest in English.

Campamento verano inglésThe students compete with their teams to earn the most points and thus obtain the camp prize. The students progressively integrate and increase their knowledge of English throughout the summer camp in Valencia.

In the night activities of our summer bivouacs, the results of the day are presented with powerful projectors, encouraging teamwork and good companionship among all competitors. The result is very refreshing summer camps in Valencia.

HISTORY OF THE BANAGÉBER RESERVOIR

Embalse de Benagéber y campamentos de verano en inglés Valencia

A bit of history

Thousands of young people, adolescents, boys and girls, and tourists visit the Benagéber holiday centers in Valencia every year, its forests, the piers, the reservoir and the summer camp > at the top of the mountain. Some come to relax for a few days, others to go hiking, canyoning, school get-togethers between England and Spain, various multi-adventure activities, water sports or simply practicing and improving a language at the English summer camp. But of all of them few are those who know the story that is hidden behind their well-deserved days off.

The Benagéber reservoir we can find it in the middle of the bed of the Túria river, in the province of Valencia. Specifically in the region of Los Serranos, in Benagéber, a town that is part of the Commonwealth of Alto Turia and which in 2013 had a census of 216 inhabitants. But that was not always so. Actually the town was divided into three when the monumental works on the reservoir began in 1933, one part moved to San Antonio de Benagéber (near Valencia city), another to San Isidro de Benagéber (near Monacada), and the third 5 kilometers from the swamp. It goes without saying that they were forced to leave their homes, their lands, and everything for the common good.

Pueblo de Banageber antes del desalojo

The proper name it receives now is not the one it had years ago, in fact it came to have up to three different names. First Blasco Ibáñez Reservoir, then San Bartolomé, and later Generalissimo. For this reason and because he inaugurated it in 1952, General Franco is usually attributed with its construction, but nothing could be further from the truth. It all started when at the beginning of the 20th century they wanted to take advantage of the abundance of water flows in the area, and following the ideas of the time they wanted to facilitate the development of the country by investing in large public works, especially in the Valencian Community is not very graceful in that sense. The government of 1902 projected the National Plan for Hydraulic Works which wanted to carry out up to 296 works aimed at improving irrigation. Within that plan was the construction of a dam in Lácava, but in 1912 a new project for the area was presented that led to the rejection of the previous one, and already in 1933 the head of the Center for Hydrographic Studies together with the Minister of Public Works decided to the reservoir of Benagéber in Valencia, and that same year the works began. Later The Spanish Civil War led to the paralysis of the works, which were already well advanced. After the war, the project was resumed and the Francoist authorities decided to use political prisoners to carry out the most dangerous tasks. It is not known how many left their lives in the project. Finally in 1955 its construction was finished, leaving behind a whole history of pain and uprooting. Even today, the descendants of the ancient inhabitants of Benagéber (and those who still live) meet once a year in August to share and remember their roots. Thanks to the effort and sacrifice of those men today we can enjoy a swamp that occupies 722 hectares, with a capacity of up to 228 cubic hectometres. And not only the irrigators of the Valencian community take advantage of it through the Campos del Turia canal, but nature lovers and outdoor activities have the Valdeserrillas nature reserve strong> of 365 hectares, in addition to a holiday center where all kinds of get-togethers are held, multi-adventure sports, camps of summer in English, etc. Not forgetting the solar boat for river trips located at the Fuente Muñoz jetty. And all this just one hour from Madrid. Now, when you visit the reservoir or spend a few days at its summer camp, you will know how to appreciate everything that the environment hides in its history. Let’s not forget!
