We are in Vila Nova da Barquinha, a regular small town surrounded by three main rivers: Nabão, Zezere and Tagus.

In our school, we work with 80 environment-friendly teachers and 500 environment friendly students in the 11-18 age range.

Our school does organize annually a full day promoting science and art activities (exhibitions, science theatre, audiovisual shows, contests, etc.) open to the participation of students, parents, staff, and external community.

Here you can find Castle of Almourol. It is a medieval military monument of the XII century rebuilt by the Templars to defend the territory during the Christian conquered.

This history is related to nearby city Tomar (UNESCO World Heritage Site), constructed by a grand master of the Knights Templar in the late 12th. Tomar is one of Portugal’s historical jewels and more significantly was the last Templar town to be commissioned for construction. This old town was especially important in the 15th century when it was a centre of Portuguese overseas expansion.
