School Activities in Peru

Welcome Dinner

Cooking class

Our Students in Cusco, Peru

Welcome Dinner

Upon arrival in Cusco, all students are invited to a complementary 3 course dinner at a lovely local restaurant on the first day of school. The welcome dinner is a fantastic chance to meet all your fellow students who are also just starting their courses and getting to know the school and the city. Not to mention a great introduction to Peruvian food!

School Events

Often we also arrange activities in the school for students such as BBQs, or parties for particular events or holidays, for students and staff to get together and enjoy themselves.

Latin America Movie Nights

Every Wednesday evening we set up a theatre on the terrace, with a huge screen. It is like an outdoor cinema. We show popular local movies and popular Latin American movies, to help you practice your comprehension of the language and reading of the subtitles. Movies are helpful in practicing and learning the Spanish language.

Farewell Gathering

Every Friday night we hold a farewell gathering to say goodbye to those students whose last week it is. We present them with their certificates of study, and congratulate them with tasty Pisco Sours and popcorn made by our helpful kitchen staff. This is a nice social gathering for a Friday night to finish off the week, followed by salsa.

Lectures on Peruvian society and culture

Every Monday and Tuesday we hold 1 hour lectures about various topics of interest relating to Peruvian society. Subjects vary from a general discussion about Peruvian culture, to ways of life in the past, family life, traditions around public holidays such as Christmas and Easter and discussions around typical foods and the progression of cuisine. We also discuss local places of interest such as great places to visit and history around them surrounding Incas and other periods. While picking up some local information, this is also a great way to practice your Spanish comprehension, as all lectures are given in Spanish.
