Students of Raquel Payá show their hospitality skills to the restorers of the region in Portal de la Marina

El Portal de la Marina Shopping Center was the scene, yesterday Thursday, of a live demonstration of the students of the Basic Adapted FP cycle of the Restaurant and Bar. Four of the five students, Aroa, Xavi, Jose and José Luis, brought their hotel capacities closer to the most influential hoteliers in the region.

And, since October, these students have worked intensely to improve their skills to work in the world of restoration and yesterday had their début, being a very exciting opportunity for them.

Pep Romany (Pont Sec), Diego Mena (Mena Restaurant), Fernando González (El Raset Group) and Xavi Pons (Tasta'm Ondara) attended the event to see first hand how all of them work and contemplate the possibility that be part of their work teams.

All of them agreed on the interesting nature of the initiative and the importance of companies in supporting and collaborating. At the lunch was also the councilor of education and acting mayor Rafa Carrió, who congratulated the shopping center Portal de la Marina for this initiative, which he described as "The link we need" after the work of the school and the students.

The school Raquel Payá, happy and grateful with this opportunity

Both the teachers and the students of the Raquel Payá school were more than happy with the invitation that the Shopping Center offered them on a platter. A collaboration that emerged after 5º Solidarity March organized by Dénia.com and Xàbia.com in favor of the educational center. Portal de la Marina made an important financial donation to the school that, in gratitude, invited its manager, Carlos Fita, to a lunch in its facilities.

For his part, the teacher of the course, Juan Cervera, explained that thanks to the IES Maria Ibars have been able to perform adapted practices, which has generated great motivation for students, as well as the event held at the mall.

But the project does not end here. Next year, all students will leave for 15 days in Finland to do internships, so they will increase their curriculum. The center will continue betting on events in which students participate, and counting, as everything seems to point, with the complicity of the hospitality sector of the region.
