Beyond Dau

Barcelona plays all year long

 
 

In Barcelona, you can play all year long!

The 0-99 game space has been launched. Every Friday, Saturday and Sunday of the year, a games kiosk located in La Clariana in Parc de les Glòries lends recreational equipment and board games, with proposals for all ages. It also offers the surroundings a space with tables, chairs, parasols and corners to play outdoors.

Schools at Dau

 

Yet another year, the Dau festival is coming to schools to offer a range of educational and fun activities. In this year's edition, we’ve added two important new features compared to previous editions. First, we have revived the format of offering the activities directly at the school. Workshop leaders will visit primary and secondary schools that request any of the activities to lead it at the school. Secondly, for the first time at the Dau festival, the range of activities is being opened to all state schools in the city of Barcelona.

The schools can request the following activities:

  • Morra workshop, run by the Companyia de Jocs l’Anònima

    Monday 13 to Friday 17 November at 9 and 11 am

    For the upper cycle of primary school and all of secondary school

    Morra is a game played without any equipment. It fosters mental agility and verbal and nonverbal language. It is an ages-old game played throughout the entire Mediterranean. All you need is your hands. The workshop will teach the game and allow participants to practise it, bearing in mind its ancient seafaring origins. The students will receive a book called Quina morra, which includes the history of the game, instructions on how to play it and stories with historical inspiration in which morra plays a prominent role.

    Game suitable for interdisciplinary work.

  • Games and mathematics, organised by SET-ABEAM Group

    Tuesday 14 to Friday 17 November at 9 and 11 am (Tuesday 14 and Wednesday 15: secondary school. Thursday 16 and Friday 17: primary school)

    In this workshop, students can discover different board games that are not only fun to play but also work on, exemplify and reinforce different mathematical concepts and ideas.

*All the activities can be done in the classroom without any special technical requirements.

**At least one member of the teaching team must be in the classroom during the activity.

***All the activities are planned for 30 students at the most.

Registration 

Schools can register for the ‘Dau at Schools’ activities at this link.

Within at most 48 hours from sending in the request, the school will receive an email confirming the assignment of the activity and the times, or notification that it has been placed on the waiting list. After that, unless needed, there will no further communication with the school until the day of the activity. The workshop leader will arrive at the school slightly before the activity starts to introduce themselves and set it up. 

Schools are asked to have the spaces, students and teachers prepared on the day and at the time assigned so that the activity can run smoothly.

If the requests for activities exceed the availability, activities will be assigned on a strictly first-come-first-served basis, based on registration.

Registration will be open between Friday 26 October and Friday 3 November (first and last dates included).
