(E-Notícies) Summer returns and so does one of the controversies of recent years in Catalonia: the use of the burkini. This piece of clothing that covers a woman’s entire body was normalized in 2023 by the Department of Equality and Feminisms, which was then led by Tània Verge. This sparked a lot of controversy, because many consider the burkini to be a degrading and unhygienic piece of clothing for women.
The controversy returns with the start of the swimming season. A mother has reported on social media the normalization of the burkini in schools.
This mother shares the end-of-year trip notice for 8th grade students at a high school in Manresa. The boys and girls from this school will travel to the Water World water park in Lloret de Mar. The notice includes all useful information for families.
