Sant Julià de Lòria Children's Week Returns With Rights-Focused Programme

Sant Julià de Lòria will hold a new edition of its Children's Week from 16 to 21 November, with a programme of recreational, educational and awareness-raising activities for children and their families. The Comú announced the initiative under the slogan "Que tothom conegui els drets dels infants!" ("Let everyone know children's rights!"), aimed at spreading awareness of the rights of the parish's youngest residents.

The week opens on Monday 16 November at 3.30 pm with the constitution of the Consell d'Infants (Children's Council), involving fifth-year primary pupils from schools in the parish. On Tuesday 17 November at 6 pm, the Biblioteca Comunal Universitària will host the workshop "Tinc drets!" ("I have rights!"), led by Joan Hernández. It combines role-play and improvisation so that participants can act out everyday situations related to children's rights, and is designed for children aged 8 to 11.

On Wednesday 18 November at 7 pm, CRIAND will lead the workshop "Son infantil a casa" ("Children's sleep at home"), also at the Biblioteca Comunal Universitària. The session offers families with children aged 0 to 4 a space to better understand children's sleep, identify each child's needs and find possible adjustments to daily routines.

The programme continues on Thursday 19 November from 6 pm to 7.30 pm with the sticker workshop "Quin et falta? L'àlbum dels drets" ("Which one are you missing? The rights album"), led by Blanca Caminal. Aimed at children aged 5 and over, it uses a participatory activity to explore children's rights. Children aged 5 and 6 must be accompanied by an adult.

On Friday 20 November, coinciding with World Children's Day, Sant Julià de Lòria will hold a special event at Casa Comuna. From 6.30 pm to 7 pm, Jana Ibarz will lead "Balla pels drets dels infants" ("Dance for children's rights"). At 7.15 pm there will be a countdown and the lighting of commemorative lights, and at 7.30 pm the Petits Cantaires Lauredians will perform.

The programme closes on Saturday 21 November with a morning of family activities from 10 am to 1 pm at Plaça de la Germandat and the lobby of the Centre Cultural Lauredià. Led by Grup Flaix with Quim Barceló, the morning will include breakfast, gifts for attendees and a photocall area. Families can also enjoy several play spaces: "l'Espai Bebès", a safe and stimulating environment for younger children; "El Poblet", a symbolic play area where children can try out professions such as firefighter, doctor, hairdresser, teacher, cook or carpenter; and "Juga i juga", featuring giant educational games.

At the same time, the Biblioteca Comunal Universitària will offer two sessions of Nascuts Per Llegir, at 11 am and 12 pm, with the activity "Aquell qui no corre, neda" ("The one who doesn't run, swims"), led by Patrícia McGill. Aimed at children aged 0 to 3 and their families, it combines stories, songs, onomatopoeia and rhythms inspired by the sea, animals and nonsense, supported by objects and illustrated albums. Entry costs four euros per family unit.

Alongside the scheduled activities, the Escola d'Art will run the initiative "Vine a fer créixer el camí blau!" ("Come and grow the blue path!") from 16 to 20 November. It invites residents to take part in building a collective path as a reminder that all children have rights and that every small gesture counts. Registration for activities with limited places can be completed through the website www.santjulia.ad.
