No More Bull

No More Bull is an original musical reimagining the myth of the Minotaur through the eyes of Ariadne. Set in a world where ancient myth collides with modern ideals, the narrative reframes Ariadne not as a passive figure, but as an empowered woman whose choices shape the fate of the tributes cast down to the labyrinth and the Minotaur within. The story dives into the mythological conflict between the hero Theseus, celebrated as the founder of democracy, and the tyrannical King Minos a symbol of oppressive power. As Ariadne uncovers the truth she begins to question the myth’s glorification of patriarchal ideals and the societal structures that have perpetuated them. The production explores themes of political autonomy, resistance, and the complexities of power through a dynamic score blending ancient and modern musical styles composed by London West End’s Corin Buckeridge and with catchy, memorable tunes that stay with audience members long after the performance. With innovative lighting design, No More Bull creates atmospheric scenes that evoke the twisting corridors of the labyrinth, symbolizing the psychological and political mazes we navigate today. This compelling story is told through Spanish and English with a script written by Elissa Nicholson, lyrics by Deborah and Elissa Nicholson and choreography by Katie Mayfield.

AMPA continues its project for donation

Two years ago, Ampa Management Committee donated recreational and sports equipment for primary and secondary school students to use and enjoy during the breaks. This year, the material was revised and completed with new items, like playing cards (Uno, Duo, Minecrafts, Dooble), Twister, Balls Darts, ropes, chess, as well as paper and drawing pencils. Auca patio monitors will manage the use and care of this equipment; therefore, students wishing to use it should contact Ms. Noelia.
With this gesture, the AMPA aims to contribute to the entertainment of recess and the well-being of our children and make them interact more during the breaks. We hope the equipment lasts a long time and creates moments of happiness for the school community.
As this material will be revised and completed every year, if you have suggestions on what to have for the next year, please send your suggestion at info@ampaescuelaeuropea.com

Springfest 24/25
Springfest – international buffet
The AMPA Management Committee is proud to inform you that €3,746 has been raised with the international buffet at the Springfest party. This amount has been donated entirely to the “El Sello de Quique” association.
We hope you enjoyed the party and tried new dishes from international food.

Once again this year, the European School of Alicante celebrates its traditional Spring Festival. The event will take place on Saturday, May 10. There will be food, drinks, and many activities for the whole family to enjoy. The school will send out the invitation and more information in the coming weeks.
The school will collaborate with the Parents’ Association (AMPA) in organizing the international buffet, featuring European and international delicacies on different tables. This requires the collaboration of all the school’s families by preparing traditional dishes, decorating the tables for each nationality, and creating a positive group atmosphere.
The AMPA is also collaborating, renting two bouncy castles: one adapted for primary/preschool students and another adapted for secondary students.
And if you don’t like cooking, you can collaborate by selling tickets at the four stalls set up for this purpose. You can choose the time slot that best suits you using the form below.
International Buffet collect
The AMPA (Participant’s Association) has not yet decided on the best way to fundraise, so if you have any ideas, please feel free to email us with your proposal.
We invite you to join the organizing group and help us prepare the best international buffet. As every year, a contest will be held to choose the best table in both decoration and food. The winning table will receive a prize and a certificate.
Eureka!
Will also be present; families can take advantage of this opportunity to recover their lost items.
You can join this WhatsApp group to stay connected and share ideas, comments, answer questions, etc.

EUIPO Hosted In-Service Training of Management Staff of the UEs

On March 21, 2025, the EUIPO served as the venue for the first day of the «In-Service Training of Management Staff of the European Schools Network.» Organised by the Office of the Secretary General (OSG), this event brought together approximately 130 participants from all European Schools and Accredited European Schools as well as from the OSG. Second day of the event was hosted by the European School of Alicante.
The in-service training sessions are designed to enhance the quality of management provided by Directors and Deputy Directors. Key areas of focus include leadership, professional development, resource management, well-being, and the formulation of (multi)annual plans. These training sessions aim to equip school leaders with the necessary skills and knowledge to improve the overall management and functioning of European Schools.
Topics presented during these two days included:
- Digital well-being by Dr. Colman Noctor
- Artificial intelligence by Mr. Kari Kivinen
- Impact of Technology on Child Development by Dr. Colman Noctor
- Introduction of the new Online Platform for the CPD (Continuous Professional Development) in the European Schools by Mr. Rafael Alba and Mr. Francois Jourde
There were also four workshops presented by different European Shools:
- Fostering Student Wellbeing: belonging, inclusion and diversity by AES Rheinmain
- Servant Leadership in practice by AES Den Haag
- Well-being matters – class time moment by ES Brussels II
- Digital portfolio prototype for the European Schools by ES Brussels II Evere.
A highlight of the event on Friday was the opening of the European School of Alicante’s exhibition, Aqvarium, at EUIPO’s Art Gallery. Training participants, EUIPO staff and members of the school community had the unique opportunity to witness the creative expression of over 400 nursery and primary school pupils. The exhibition also featured a remarkable performance by the Primary School European Hours Choir, adding a melodic touch to the event.
The Aqvarium exhibition provides an excellent platform for the educational community and the general public to admire the artistic talents of young students. Once the exhibition concludes, the final artwork will be installed at the school, ensuring that the creativity and effort of the students continue to be celebrated within their learning environment.
