The Mairena del Aljarafe City Council has awarded 63,000 euros for the service that will take students to their educational activities during the 2026/2027 school year.
The Mairena del Aljarafe City Council now has a company for the transport of students participating in its educational programme. The contract, for 63,000 euros including taxes, was awarded at the beginning of the month after a public tender, which was contested by three companies.
The service will cover the trips for the centres registered in around 30 proposals for the 26/27 school year. According to Blanca de Pablos, the councillor for Educational Commitment, the intention is for no student to be excluded from activities due to transportation issues.
“Facilitating student participation in the thirty activities of the council so that no student is left behind in the City Council's educational programme.”
The buses will pick up schoolchildren from their schools and take them to locations such as Casco Antiguo, Teatro Villa de Mairena, Club Deportivo Ecuestre El Laminillo, or Centro Acuático Cavaleri. The programmes requiring transport include Getting to Know Mairena, Mairena and its Conservatory, Equine Therapy, and School Swimming.
School Swimming is aimed at students in 2nd and 3rd grade of Primary and students from specific units and autism. The contract includes over 230 services for round trips throughout the school year.
Among the registered centres are CEIP El Olivo, Guadalquivir, Lepanto, Malala, Los Rosales, Miguel Hernández, Francisco Giner de los Ríos, and Santa Teresa, as well as the schools Las Marismas and Santa María del Valle and the institutes IES Hipatia and IES Cavaleri. Specific and autism classes in Primary and Secondary that participate will also be able to use it.
The contract also includes the transport of adult students from the Aula de la Experiencia to the Provincial Meeting, which will be held in Coria del Río on a day between April and May 2027. The departure will be from a point in Mairena del Aljarafe that will still be determined for that activity.
The municipal programme includes cultural, sports, environmental, and local knowledge proposals, as well as activities for students with specific needs. Interested centres must be registered in the programmes to access transport.
