We are very pleased to greet you and truly grateful for your continuous support of our educational project. Today, we would like to share how we began the 2025–2026 school year at the Albergue, and how the activities carried out during this period have strengthened the programs and services we offer to promote the well-being and holistic development of our children and youth.
The school year began with our Cultural and Sports Week, complemented by a socio-emotional development camp designed for the children and youth we serve. The main objective of these activities was to enhance emotional self-regulation skills and to foster a positive learning environment through participatory, development-oriented experiences.
Throughout the week, a variety of workshops and educational dynamics were implemented. Among them, the “Solution Box” workshop stood out for encouraging creativity and flexible thinking in problem solving. We also watched movies related to emotions and everyday situations —a simple, fun way to spark conversations and reflections afterward.
Group activities—such as a recreational “exathlon” and a treasure hunt—helped strengthen key socio-emotional competencies, including cooperation, effective communication, and respectful interaction.
Together, these efforts created favorable conditions for a successful return to school and contributed to the emotional well-being of our children and youth.
Thank you once again for your invaluable support. We wish you an excellent end of the year and look forward to connecting with you soon.

Así dimos la bienvenida al ciclo escolar 2025–2026
Estamos muy contentos de saludarte y profundamente agradecidos por tu apoyo constante a nuestro proyecto educativo. Hoy queremos compartir contigo cómo iniciamos el ciclo escolar 2025–2026 en el Albergue y de qué manera las actividades realizadas durante este periodo fortalecen los programas y servicios que ofrecemos para promover el bienestar y el desarrollo integral de nuestros niños y jóvenes.
El ciclo escolar comenzó con la Semana Cultural y Deportiva, complementada por un campamento de desarrollo socioemocional dirigido a los usuarios de la institución. El objetivo central fue fortalecer habilidades de autorregulación emocional y fomentar un ambiente de aprendizaje positivo mediante actividades participativas y orientadas al desarrollo integral.
A lo largo de esta jornada se llevaron a cabo diversos talleres y dinámicas educativas. Entre ellos destacó el taller “Caja de soluciones”, diseñado para estimular la creatividad y el pensamiento flexible en la resolución de problemas. También se realizaron proyecciones de películas vinculadas a la identificación y manejo de emociones, que sirvieron como punto de partida para ejercicios de reflexión guiada.
Las actividades grupales —como el exatlón recreativo y la búsqueda del tesoro— contribuyeron al fortalecimiento de competencias socioemocionales clave, incluyendo la cooperación, la comunicación efectiva y la convivencia respetuosa.
En conjunto, estas acciones crearon condiciones favorables para el regreso a clases y reforzaron el bienestar emocional de nuestros usuarios.
Mil gracias por tu apoyo y te deseamos un excelente cierre de año y esperamos poder saludarte muy pronto.
