Kids on the go
Meet Isabella Hernandez
It’s June 21st, and Isabella Hernandez, aged fifteen, from Barcelona, Spain, is looking
forward to her summer holidays. She’ll be doing all her favorite things, like playing
basketball with her team, and she might be able to do some singing with ‘Las Muñecas’,
her all-girl band, which is another one of her interests. But what she likes best is
science, and this summer she’s going to Alpbach Summer School. The school opened in
1975, and it is in Tirol, Austria.
Isabella talks about Alpbach Summer School.
Every year, Alpbach Summer School, working with the ESA (European Space Agency),
chooses sixty young science students from all around Europe. Classes are taught in
English so all students must know that language in addition to their own. This school is a
real opportunity to learn about space science and space technology. Working in groups,
students will decide on the subject of a project and then enter their projects in a
competition.
Isabella says…
You have to apply to the school before 31st March. Your teacher has to sign the
application and then you send it to the European Space Agency. You will get an answer
back in April. It costs €370 to participate in the summer school course, which lasts from
27th July to 5th August.
