SAN ROQUE'S TV

    Hello again!

    Today, I would like to tell you something about the communication in our village.

    Firstly, I must say that Multimedia is the main company in this issue. Multimedia is composed by the TV, the radio and the communication via Internet. I think it is also in the control of the web page of the Town Hall and other websites.

    Regarding the TV, it is important to know there is a variety programming. Nowadays, the most famous ones are the News and 'Con Olor a Incienso', a show related to Easter.

    The radio programmes are usually heard in the morning and the websites are the most popular, because they are read by thousand of inhabitants. If you want more information, you can search here:

Santa María La Coronada church and the main square

          In this church we find the sepulture of José Cadalso and the religious images that Spanish  

         could bring from Gibraltar. It is located on the highest point of the village.

  

             

   Alameda de Alfonso XI was built in 1831. It is the central pedestrian square of the

village and inside it is Juan Luis Galiardo Theater.

     Hello again!

       As I said, here you have an interesting video about San Roque, especially about monuments and places. I have found a good video,but it only has pictures, so I will give you more information about some of this places and monuments.

     See you soon!

CARNIVAL

    Hello again!

    Last weekend, we had something interesting and funny to do: enjoying  in carnivals. This year, there was a big procession, where a lot of 'sanroqueños'  participated in different ways, above all, getting dressed. Moreover, the best costume won a prize. In this occasion, the winners were some teenagers getting dressed of barbies.

    Carnival is a very popular party in our village because of the influence of Cádiz, the province where San Roque is situated. It is the main festivity in the city and there are important competitions. Some people, like 'El Selu', 'El Love' o 'El Canijo' sing funny songs and wear striking costumes every year.

    In San Roque, there was also a tent to dance and to have a nice time with friends. You should come next year!

ONE OF OUR SURVEYS

    Hi again!

    The members of A new world of possibilities have finished the survey about the sightseem tourism. The 80% of the survey respondents have chosen the option of ' both can be posible' (it is a good way of learning art and culture and it is great to enjoy). The 20% of the people prefere sightseem tourism only to learn art and culture.

    We propose you a new one about San Roque, the project which we are working about. Thank you very much for your participation and you can answer the new survey!

THE POPULATION

    Hello!

    As you know, we go on working on the project about San Roque and, this time I am going to tell you something about its population.

    Nowadays, there are 30,000 citizens, more or less, in San Roque. Approximately, 4,000 people are not Spanish, above all British, due to the influence of Gibraltar. The residents are distributed in the different districts or areas.

    The ‘Casco’ is the area with more people, 10800, the 40% of the inhabitants more or less. It is followed by the Valley of Guadiaro, with 8700 residents; the inland area with a population of 6200; and the bay where 4300 people live. 

     In this graphic, you can see the demography's evolution from 1900 to 2010.
