The first student visit with the 1o students of “Gray Superior de Gestió
Forestal i del Medi Natural” was a walking trip from Vidrà to Sant Pere de
Torelló, where we could introduce ourselves to the forestry area
interpretation.
Through the path, we knew different forestry arboreal, bushy and
herbaceous species of the traditional vegetation Mediterranean weather.
We learned to interpret different ways a forest area can be and, to know
some measuring tools that are used to carry out a dasymetric inventory.
Visit to the reproduction tortoise center of Albera, located in Garriguella, and “Parque Medioambiental” in Selva.
During the morning, we visited the Mediterranean tortoise breeding in
Garriguella, in the Albera mountains, where turtles are breed to be released into the natural environment. A beautiful species as threatened as well. Joan Budó accompanied us through the visit making it very pleasant and didactic.
In the afternoon, we visited “Parque Medioambiental de la Selva,” where they
manage a good part of the waste gathering from the region. They distribute and do organic matter treatment, as well. The person in charge, Núria Cifra, showed us the plant and explained to us its work.
A new year begins. And we evaluate how the learning has been in DUAL
studies during the summer season. Because of covid19, we had to
postpone the start. But once we had assimilated the situation, all the
appropriate adaptations were carried to achieve correct monitoring of the
learning process, always keeping in mind the new sanitary conditions.
The personal and direct connection between the third parts implied in the
stay, student-school-company, guarantee this is enriching and accurate
for all of them.
From the school, we strongly bet for this professional stay system in the
company, and for this reason, we realized it would be interesting to
extend it to the rest of the training courses taught at school. Being always motivated for the exit of good experiences lived in the last years in the“Cicle de agropecuaria”. We know that walking forward in this direction, we increase the possibilities of the student incorporation in the company where he/she has carried out his DUAL stay.
Final Projects of the year consist of the last educational register that
allows evaluating students’ competencies achieved through their
academic training.
The link connection among the learning and professional training defines
their singularity regarding the last projects realized so far.
This year, the development, monitoring, and presentation have been
different due to the exceptional situation we are living in nowadays.
However, students and teachers have been up to this entrust
responsibility. As always, the results have been very satisfactory. We
ended a year they are going to remember forever.
Good job, good results.
“ I hope after this summer period you have rested and are excited to start
a new school year and be willing to work and achieve the objectives we
have fixed for this year. As you know, the pandemic is still with us, and
we commit ourselves to adapt to this situation and follow the protocols
and preventive health measures that will be a priority since the first day,
to all of us and all the students. At the same time, the school will follow
its formative teaching without losing the essence and the educational
system that defines it.
I attach you a general teaching plan and “Pla d’organització I d’actuació
curs 20-21 en el marc de la pandèmia de l’escola Quintanes”. We have
done some modifications regarding what I sent you in July, adding new
Department instructions. It is so important to read it down to the last
detail and study this planning”.
All our students are a present to us #familiaquintanes
I ́m Laia Rius, and I’ve already finalized “Ramaderia i Assistència en
Sanitat Animal” studies in EFA Quintanes. I achieved an honour enrolment
and a recognition in Argó awards organized by the Universitat Autònoma
de Barcelona. It has been possible due to my stay in school. That has
helped me in my personal and academically development.
I take with me a lot of good memories of these two years, and I
recommend everyone who wants to focus his/her professional career in a
farming or rural scope.
I believe these studies are very useable. Either for the people who want
to focus in ranching or the ones who want to keep in their university
degrees like veterinary science or agronomist engineering because they
offer you the required theoretical bases and great practice experience in
different companies.
I’m Estel Barceló and in the middle of the pandemic situation I’ve ended
“Cicle Superior de Ramaderia i Assistència en Sanitat Animal” in
Quintanes. It seems impossible time passes so quickly. I still have in
mind the day I began.
Despite, a bittersweet finishing, I appreciate a lot these two years
studying what I’m passionate for, learning new concepts and being part of
this school.
I do not know what the future will bring me, but now I am sure where I
am, what I want to be and what I like to be. From here, I would like to
encourage everyone to discover this satisfactory feeling that can be get
from Quintanes and all its people around.
Last but not least, I would like to encourage all of you to take in
advantage the chances are planned within these studies: visits, study
programs, trips and so on. All of them are priceless!! Besides, all the
moments lived through Quintanes are unforgettable, and being quite
honestly, Quintanes has made me grow as a person. I’m very grateful.
Thanks to Quintanes I can leave with a full bag. I hope we’ll get in touch
soon! Thanks, Quintanes family!
How easy is learning when you want to learn, you like what you’re
learning and, they help you in learning

2n students of GM “Producció Agropecuària” did two educational visits to
complement the machinery syllabus.
In the morning, they visited Can Fraser d’Aiguaviva, where Mr. Jordi Aulet
explained to us all kinds of details such as management, maintenance
service, failures, productions, prices, profitability and, so on, of all their
machinery used.
While in the afternoon, students visited Albert Tulsà s.l company in
Riudellots de la Selva. An enterprise for agricultural work to third parties.
Albert showed us and explained to us all the machinery they have, the
history and evolution of the company as well as the daily work. Above all,
the students liked so much the new company acquisition, a tractor of
420cv, of the Class Xerion brand with four directional wheels of the same
diameter.
From here, we would like to express our gratitude to both companies for
their participation and personalized advice to our students.
One of the keys to the educational system of alternation is the
engagement of some teachers - usually called “instructors” - with multiple
functions beyond teaching.
The instructor goes along with the student in all their studies itinerary and
socio-professional incorporation because they are an active actor/actress
inside this same socio-professional context and territorial in which the
student is part.
Is the paradigm of a new academic profession: is no longer the teacher of
a subject, but the teacher who encourages, guides, advises, helps,
teaches when it’s necessary, accompanies along the educational way, and
provokes the learning interest. (Andreu Gutiérrez, ex instructor of
Quintanes).
