At Eurocolegio Casvi International Private School in Villaviciosa de Odón, we believe in a comprehensive education that goes beyond the classroom. Complementary and extracurricular activities are a fundamental tool to promote not only academic development, but also the emotional, physical and social growth of our pupils.
NEW PROGRAMME OF EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES IN CASVI VILLAVICIOSA ACADEMIC YEAR 2025-26
The new programme for the 2025-26 academic year is now available. You will find a wide and varied offer, designed to suit the different ages, interests and talents of our students.
WHAT CHALLENGES DO FAMILIES FACE?
Parents today face multiple challenges in raising their children:
- Lack of quality time due to demanding work schedules.
- Reduction of children’s social interaction due to excessive use of screens.
- Academic pressure, which often leads to stress and anxiety.
Complementary and extracurricular activities can be an effective solution to all these challenges, offering structure, motivation and opportunities for socialisation.
BENEFITS BACKED BY EXPERTS AND DATA
Institutional sources
According to the Instituto Nacional de Empresa (INE), more than 30 % of school-age children do not engage in regular physical activity, which increases the risks of obesity and emotional disorders.
Experts
Ana López, child psychologist, points out: "Complementary and extracurricular activities allow children to develop skills that are not always cultivated in the classroom, such as empathy, emotional management or resilience".
Specialized literature
Pedagogue Juan Martínez, author of The Complete Child, stresses that "these activities stimulate creativity, responsibility and discipline, which are key to personal and academic success".
HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT ACTIVITIES?
- Listen to your children: What interests them, where do they feel comfortable or curious?
- Balance is key: Don’t overload your agenda. Alternating physical activities with creative or technological ones can be enriching.
- Consult professionals: Tutors, counsellors or activity leaders can give you a more complete picture.
- Check what’s on offer: Make sure the options align with family schedules and goals.
“My daughter started at the Casvi Music School and her self-esteem and concentration have improved remarkably,” says L.G., mother of a primary school pupil.

From football, swimming and dance to robotics, theatre and music. The Casvi Villaviciosa programme is designed to help each pupil discover their talents, encourage teamwork and develop life skills.
An example of success: the Casvi Solidarity Race
Organised by Diploma Programme students (IB), this initiative demonstrates how an extracurricular activity can unite academic training, social engagement and leadership.
FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PARENTS
- Regularly assess whether your child enjoys and feels motivated.
- Allow them to decide, especially in the later stages.
- Go for quality, not quantity. Less can be more when it comes to emotional well-being.
Complementary and extracurricular activities are a valuable investment in the overall development of your children. At Casvi Villaviciosa we work every day to offer enriching experiences that make a difference in their present and future.
Check out our programme now and join them on this exciting journey of discovery, learning and growth.
