CPEPA Alfindén Centro Público de Educación de Personas Adultas
CPEPA Alfindén‘s other Programmes and Projects
Launched in 2011, this plan coordinates reading initiatives between the Town Council, the Municipal Library, and all local educational centres (from nurseries to our Adult Education Centre).
The Public Library acts as the hub for this network. All participating centres are digitised using specific software, creating a collective online catalogue. This allows any citizen to borrow books from any library within the local network. By sharing budgets and coordinating the acquisition of materials, we avoid duplication and encourage each centre to specialise in specific bibliographic areas.
This innovative programme, promoted by the Government of Aragón, develops linguistic and cultural competence through poetry.
Over 130 educational centres participate, each selecting a poem and creating classroom activities to share with the entire network. This provides a vast weekly resource of poetry and pedagogical proposals tailored to all age groups.
We promote reading by studying the works of various Aragonese writers each year. This preparation culminates in personal meetings at our centre, where students can share an intimate moment with the authors and gain a deeper understanding of the creative process.
In addition, and outside the official programme, our library regularly hosts book presentations by authors whose works have been studied in our Reading Promotion courses. In our library, we have had the pleasure of welcoming Severino Pallaruelo, Carmen Santos, Angélica Morales, and a then-lesser-known Irene Vallejo
This programme uses film to develop communicative and audiovisual skills.
During our Cultural Week, we screen films and short films in Spanish and the languages taught at our centre: English, French, Italian, and German, supported by educational guides and interdisciplinary classroom projects.
As members of the Aragonese Network of Health Promoting Schools (RAEPS), we believe that physical and emotional well-being is essential for effective learning.
Our holistic approach covers conscious nutrition, physical activity, and stress management, providing our adult students with practical tools to improve their quality of life.
