Connections - Another example

Let us introduce you to Idoia and Nuria, two of our Batxillerat students. They have interviewed one member of our staff, Rosa Arnau, who is part of the team working for the USEE, a very important section of our school.

This year the USEE celebrates its 10th anniversary, a landmark in the history of INS Narcís Oller, which proudly offers this basic tool to all those who believe in inclusion.
