Euskalgintza de Pamplona returns to apply for children's schools in Euskera

  • Hundreds of people left this Thursday afternoon for the Paseo de Sarasate and went to the Plaza Municipal de Pamplona to ask the city council to place among its priorities the right to study in Basque in the children's schools of the city. They began with the motto "Haur eskolak euskaraz: eman haizea euskarari".

The demand for the registration of children in Basque has long been in the neighborhoods of Pamplona, but also the impossibility to channel the claim. The City Hall manages twelve children's schools and currently only in the Txantrea district can children be enrolled in the Basque immersion model. In three other neighborhoods you can register in Basque and English and in another in Basque and Spanish.

In Joseba Asiron’s first term 2015-2019 it was possible to register in four neighborhoods in Basque, but later UPN municipalities rejected these achievements. Therefore, Euskalgintza de Pamplona (unions: Parents of Children's Schools, Sortzen, AET, IKA, AEK and ELA, LAB and Steilas) asks that in this legislature it be ensured that in any neighborhood of Pamplona it can be registered in the model of immersion in Euskera in children's schools.

The demonstration ended in the plaza of the city council, where the convoys asked the forces that make up the municipal government, EH Bildu, Geroa Bai and Sozialistak-Tú, to take measures to comply with the ordinances of the Basque Country and that once and for all the issue is addressed correctly.

Asiron: “Vision of the legislature”

In the interview given to ARGIA in February 2025, Mayor Joseba Asiron said that by 2024-2025 they would have difficulty doing anything because the municipal change was recent. He noted that his role will be “to design the panorama of the next twenty years” and also pointed out the objective of the city council of this legislature: “that children who want to learn Basque in any neighborhood of Pamplona can do so. That would be a great achievement.”
