Welcome to Colegio Europeo de Madrid
Since 1989, our goal has been to develop the skills and abilities of our students in a personalised way, instilling in them a love for learning, curiosity, imagination and creativity.
By teaching students in a bilingual setting and a secure social and emotional environment, we pave the way for students to achieve their goals and overcome the challenges they set themselves.
We want our students to see the world as a place that is full of possibilities in which they can grow as a person and create value and well-being in society.

Ayer cambiamos las aulas por senderos y las pantallas por aire libre
Con motivo de la VIII edición del Global Be Well Day de @cognitaschools, nuestros alumnos, desde Infantil hasta MYP 5, salieron a recordar algo importante: el bienestar no siempre se enseña, a veces se vive.
Porque crecer también consiste en conectar con la naturaleza, con los demás y con uno mismo.

🌍 En septiembre, nos movemos juntos alrededor del mundo.
Esta semana celebramos la VIII edición del Cognita Global Be Well Day, una iniciativa que reúne a nuestra comunidad educativa en todo el mundo para poner el bienestar en el centro.
Este año, bajo el lema “In Motion, We Thrive”, el foco está en la actividad física y en todo lo que el movimiento aporta a nuestro bienestar físico y emocional.
En CEM, nuestros alumnos saldrán de las aulas para moverse, disfrutar y compartir actividades al aire libre. Porque cuidarnos también es movernos juntos.

🌍 This September, we’re moving together around the world.
This week, we celebrate the 8th edition of Cognita Global Be Well Day, an initiative that brings our school communities together across the world to put wellbeing at the heart of what we do.
This year, under the theme “In Motion, We Thrive”, the focus is on physical activity and everything movement brings to our physical and emotional wellbeing.
At CEM, our students will be stepping outside the classroom to get active, enjoy the outdoors and share the experience together. Because looking after ourselves also means moving together.

¿Con qué actividad extraescolar te quedarías si pudieras probarlas todas? 👀
El viernes celebramos en el CEM nuestra Feria de Extraescolares, donde nuestros alumnos y familias pudieron conocer las diferentes propuestas para este curso.
Robótica, judo, esgrima, piano, francés, crochet, Kumon, ajedrez, teatro… Una tarde para descubrir nuevas actividades, compartir intereses y, por qué no, encontrar alguna nueva afición.
Porque aprender también ocurre cuando salimos del aula.

Which extracurricular activity would you choose if you could try them all? 👀
Last Friday, we held our After-School Activities Fair, where our students and families had the chance to discover the different activities on offer this school year.
Robotics, judo, fencing, piano, French, crochet, Kumon, chess, drama… An afternoon to discover new activities, share interests and, who knows, perhaps find a new passion.
Because learning also happens beyond the classroom.
