Dear Eco Hub families,

April has been a vibrant and meaningful month across our community, filled with creativity, connection, and shared experiences. From celebrating Sant Jordi with storytelling, roses, and books, to launching our very first Jocs Florals writing contest, learners have been expressing themselves in powerful and imaginative ways. We’ve also continued deepening our sense of identity and belonging through cultural presentations, hands-on learning experiences, and community events that bring families and learners together. As we move into the next part of the term, it is inspiring to see how learning continues to extend beyond the space and into every corner of our community life.

Enjoy the read!

Warmly,

The Eco Hub Team

Welcoming Kerry Schorr to the team!

We are excited to welcome a new member to the Learnlife team. Kerry Schorr, a parent from Eco Hub, will be joining us on May 4th as our new Hub Operations Lead. Based at Urban Hub, Kerry will also support operational logistics across all three hubs, including inventory management, vendor relations, hub events, Powerschool processes, as well as supporting enrolment and onboarding of new families, organisation-wide events, and summer programming. Kerry brings valuable experience, a collaborative mindset, and a strong commitment to making a positive impact. We are delighted to have her on board and look forward to the energy and expertise she will bring to the team.

Summer Camp at Eco Hub (June 29th – July 31st)

This summer, children will experience a vibrant and enriching Summer Camp designed to capture the true essence of the season. Through creative activities, exciting excursions, and hands-on workshops, learners won’t just have fun—they will connect, explore, and grow in a dynamic and inspiring environment. Each week is built around a different theme and includes outings to local activity centres, alongside engaging sessions led by the enthusiastic team from FUNdamentales. With limited spots available, this is a wonderful opportunity to make this summer truly memorable.

Pau Tavella returning to Eco Hub

We are thrilled to share that Pau Tavella, Learning Guide at Eco Hub, will be returning from maternity leave on May 18th, working part-time until the end of this school year. It is wonderful to have her rejoining the team, and we have truly missed her presence, energy, and contribution to our community. We are very much looking forward to welcoming her back and easing into this next chapter together.

Upcoming trips in Explora

As part of our Explora Building Block, learners across all programme groups will be heading out on meaningful learning experiences designed to connect directly with their big questions. These outings will help bring history and inquiry to life beyond the classroom. Adventurers will explore El Castell de Castelldefels (May 6th) as they investigate the question of what secrets pirates may have left behind in the area and how these stories can be uncovered and shared. Discoverers will visit the Castelldefels Library Prehistory Expo (May 14th)  to explore how the town has changed over time and how its history can be represented through images, objects, and storytelling. Pioneers will visit our local library (May 7th) to deepen their understanding of how historians investigate and interpret the past, building real connections to historical thinking and research. Michelle has sent informative emails for each trip.

Community Beach Day - June 7th

After many requests, we are delighted to invite our community to another Wellness Day by the sea—a chance to swim, move, connect, and play together in nature with the Learnlife community. This time we will gather at Castelldefels Beach near the central volleyball area, close to the chiringuitos and within walking distance from Eco Hub. We will meet on Sunday, June 7th at 12:00 PM at Playa de Castelldefels (Zona Esportiva – Volleyball Nets Area), a spacious and family-friendly stretch of beach ideal for group games, swimming, and relaxing together. Families are invited to bring a picnic to share or enjoy individually, along with beach essentials such as towels, sunscreen, water, and any games or equipment they would like to use. Please note that while Learnlife is organizing the gathering, families are responsible for supervising their children, especially in and around the water. We are looking forward to a beautiful day of sun, sea, and community connection. For any questions, please contact Suzanne at suzanne@learnlife.com

 Parent Workshop: Understanding the Brain Reward System and ADHD: Setting up your Learner for Success

Last May 30th, Suzanne Faith, Well-being Lead and Learning Guide at Urban Hub, led a workshop to offer a clear and compassionate understanding of ADHD through the lens of brain science and the reward system. The workshops looked at how attention, motivation, and emotional regulation are governed by neurochemistry, and what this means for everyday parenting. Parents learned practical strategies to support focus, regulation, build healthy routines, and respond to challenges in ways that nurture confidence and resilience.
