Mr Francisco Javier Paizal González, one of our geography and history teachers, will teach the students a lesson on the physical environment of Alhaurin de la Torre and how contrasted our landscape is, from the mountains to the plains and coasts, paying special attention to our privileged location as a reason because ancient civilizations have historically settled in the area.
