Man Utd v Schalke Champions league semi-final
Don´t forget you football lovers out there. A huge game tomorrow night at 20.45 live on ITV 1. It appears a formality for Man Utd, but they need to be careful as the way they played on Sunday anything can happen, nevertheless as a United supporter I have faith in their ability and should be too strong for Schalke. Please add your views on the outcome!!!

SCHOOLS
Hi, We are moving to the area in the summer and wanted more information on schools in the area. I understand that there is a school in Benijofar and also one in Rojales. My children are 4 and 6.
Hi, Our children attend the schools in Rojales - one is at the institute (high school) and one at the junior school. My youngest has been at the junior school since she was 4 when we moved to Spain and I have always been very happy with the standards there. You have to sometimes accept that things are done differently here. My son is due to leave this year to go to the Institute. I think if you go along to the school (they only speak Spanish so you will need a translator if you dont!) - they will advise you what you need to register.
We put our lad into this school when we first came to Spain he was 13 and did not speak a word of Spanish. His first lesson was History and it was all in Spanish not a word of English was spoken, after 6 months he was fluent and is now a professional translator back in the U.K
He went thought some very frustrating times but it made a man of him and has help him no end for the future.
There are also plenty of opportunities for the children to do sports eg football, gymnastics, tennis outside of school at the polideportivos (sports centres) in Benijofar and Rojales. Both have great football teams for the boys and I believe girls!
My children go to the junior school in Benijofar and we are more than happy with it. The only downside we have is that there is no lunch facility there so the children have to come home whereas from what I hear if they go to Rojales they can stay for lunch.
Hello Sarah, My name is Anita and I work at the Berlingua International School in Ciudad Quesada. We are located about 5 mins from Benijofar. Our language school teaches people of all ages to learn spanish. We have an excellent track record for preparing children for their academic classes. Please email me for further details: [email protected]
English Language Cinema
Can anyone tell me where I can see films in English please. It´s the only thing about the UK I miss.
Thank you
Brilliant Forum
Just wanted to say how much I am enjoying the forum, lots of useful information and tips, good suggestions and nice to see the integration of our lovely Spanish friends. I am new to Almoradi and this site has been a wonderful resource to help me and my family find our feet
Hi, just noticed ur post I am thinking of moving to Almoradi at then end of the year, how are you finding it? do you have children in school?
Hi Karen,
We have been living in Almoradi only for a few months and we love it dearly. Our children are too young for school, but have heard the education here is very good. My husband is on contract work and I look after the kids. When we are all together we spend lots of quality time together. Jenny

The studio has all types of fitness classes starting plus health and beauty. My clinic is for fitness rehab therapy.
I want to go to this event but have no transport to get there, is anyone else going that would offer me a lift from outside the Plazza. I am happy to pay for fuel
