On December 11, Euskalgintza of Pamplona/Iruña will hold a demonstration to reclaim the model in Euskera in children's schools in all the districts of the city. On Saturday, the initiative was presented in the Barrio San Juan de la capital navarra.

As several families in Pamplona have explained in a video, there are different reasons to leave on 11 December. Idoia and Ion, for example, have had to register their sons and daughters in the Spanish model. Idoia has denounced that the places in Euskera are “very scarce”, while Ion “cannot cross the whole of Pamplona to enroll in an Basque centre”. Both parents claim the right to study in Euskera, both for students of children's schools and for the rest of the citizenship.

Vera Lucía, from Peru, and her family will also participate in the demonstration. Vera Lucía explains that her son has been enrolled in the Basque children's school Izartegi, in the Chantrea district. "To bring your child to school, they have to cross the entire city," he said. Despite this, they have opted for Euskera “because it is very important that the languages of origin be respected”. Vera explained that in her country the Quechua and Aimara languages are disappearing and wants her children “to learn and value” so that they “integrate”.

The Sortzen association has denounced that “it is not possible to cross the entire city to immerse our sons and daughters in the language of origin here”.

The demonstration will start at 17:30 hours from the Paseo de Sarasate to denounce the presence of "children's schools in Euskera in all the districts of Pamplona".
