School Life at CARLOMAGNO
The school day starts at 8:30 am and ends at 4:45 pm, from Monday to Thursday. On Friday, they usually end at 2:45 pm. Every two periods there is a 10 to 15 recess, but as lunch is considered an important meal in Chile, students are given 45 to 60 minutes after 1:00 pm to have a proper lunch. Our school has a cafeteria where you can eat the meal you bring from home. There is also a kiosk where you can buy fruits.

GoAbroad-CHILE organizes a wide and diversified range of experiential learning opportunities to develop and grow in the Marga Marga county.
