On September 29th, the 6th grade students went on a field trip to the University of Alicante (UA) to attend the Researcher's Night
We left around 9:30-10:00 and returned around 13:00-13:30. We visited the Exhibition called Geology for Everybody. This activity explains the history of the Earth in a fun way and also some of the main events that have occurred.
Five professional people and one student worked on this wonderful stand. Prof. Pedro Alfaro, teacher at the Earth Sciences Department, had the idea of carrying out this project and it took them 2 years to carry it out because there are many QR codes, photos, and information ...

We have found some very interesting data... there were 2,000 visits in the morning and 6,000 visits in the afternoon (approximately). They visited the stands in general. Thanks to the collaboration of Prof. David Benavente, Coordinator of this activity, we have all this information.
