Hi there, we recently moved to Spain. Our daughter is 12 yrs old and we would like her to make some new friends in this area ( Pedreguer, Denia, Ondara, Javea) We are Dutch but do speak German, English, French and Spanish.

The best way of integrating her will be to get her involved with any local children’sgroups, games etc. She will learn Spanish by being amongst the village children and will then naturally make friends.

When I first came here with my parents I was just 14 - a very long time ago now. We lived in what was then a small village on the coast and I was thrown into the local  groups. I went everywhere with a pocket dictionary to hand and gradually learnt how to get by - of course being a ‘foreign’ child then was seen as interesting and my groups of children were very eager to help me learn, no English was spoken then at all.

Try and make contact with local schools (how is your daughter being educated?) and any sports clubs etc.

Enrol her in school, she would soon learn the language and you would also meet other parents and form friendships
