The Olive Tree School Holds Open Morning on 21 November

SANT PERE DE RIBES, 21 October 2026. The Olive Tree School in Sant Pere de Ribes will hold an open morning on Saturday 21 November, from 11:00 to 13:00. Families can visit the whole school, meet the headteachers and talk to the leadership team about their child's educational needs.

The open morning is designed for families who want to learn more about the school before choosing a place for their child. Visitors will be able to walk around the whole school and see the spaces where pupils learn each day.

Those spaces include a science lab, an ICT room, a busy art studio, two libraries, a music room, outdoor classrooms, two vegetable plots and a theatre. The school also has four upright pianos placed around the building, and a sports hall of 1,000 square metres.

The meeting with the headteachers gives parents the chance to ask about the school's pupil-centred approach to learning and about how it would suit their own child. The school teaches the British National Curriculum to pupils aged 3 to 16, using a wide range of child-centred methods.

The November date is the first of four open mornings listed for the school year. The school has also announced mornings on 23 January, 27 February and 3 April, all from 11:00 to 13:00, so families who cannot attend this one have further opportunities.

How to attend

The open morning takes place on Saturday 21 November, from 11:00 to 13:00, at The Olive Tree School, Carrer les Modistes 8, Sant Pere de Ribes (08812 Barcelona).

It is an in-person event aimed at families considering the school for their children, from the 3 to 16 age range the school teaches. During the morning, visitors tour the whole school and speak with the headteachers and the leadership team about their child's educational needs.

Registration: families can sign up from The Olive Tree School's profile on International School Advisor.

About The Olive Tree School

The Olive Tree School was born in 2010 in a house, out of the wish to give a small group of children warm, personalised teaching and creative, high-quality learning. It moved to its current premises in 2012 and now has around 200 pupils from about 30 nationalities, aged 3 to 16.

Classes are small, with a maximum of 20 pupils in most year groups, and close bonds between pupils and adults are central to the school's identity. A November 2024 inspection by NABSS described the lessons as highly engaging, with children actively taking part and gaining an impressive command of English.

For families in Sant Pere de Ribes and the surrounding area who are looking for a small English-language school, an open morning is the most direct way to see classrooms, outdoor spaces and teachers at work. Parents can compare the school's size and approach with other options in the area.
