Day 1 | Thurs 5th Dec
Repton Dubai have arrived in the Spanish capital of Madrid, and headed straight to Atletico Madrid's Metropolitano home.
The students went behind the scenes and took their seats in the director's box - what an arena!
The students and staff followed in the footsteps of the pros when they visited the home dressing room before walking down the Metropolitano tunnel and spending some time pitchside.
Day 2 | Fri 6th Dec
The first chance for the Repton students to get their boots on came on Day 2 of the tour when they visited the Real Madrid training base at Valdebebas.
The players were put through their paces by Real Madrid's coaching team and got the chance to experience a day in the life of a player at the Spanish giants.
What an opportunity!
Following the morning's training session, the Repton students got a chance to test themselves against the locals in a series of challenge matches
Day 3 | Sat 7th Dec
Saturday was a chance for the Repton Dubai students to have some down time away from the football pitch as they visited Madrid's Parque Warner.
Day 4 | Sun 8th Dec
Sunday morning kicked off with some more challenge matches for the Repton Dubai football squads.
The girls U14 and boys U13 & U16 squads put in some great performances across the board and continued their fine form in Madrid.
Ahead of tonight's big match, the squads headed into Madrid city centre to spend some time seeing the Christmas lights and visit Legends Museum - one of Spain's most complete collections of football memorabilia.
Next up: Atleti vs. Sevilla in La Liga!
To round off day four of Repton Dubai's Madrid football tour, they headed back to Atletico Madrid's Metropolitano stadium to watch Diego Simeone's side take on Sevilla in La Liga action - and what a game it was!
After finding themselves 3-1 down after 57 minutes, the Atleti side mounted a hugely impressive comeback - topped off in the 94th minute by talismanic forward Antoine Griezmann who bagged a last gasp winner to make sure all three points were staying in Spain's capital!
Day 5 | Mon 9th Dec
The Repton students returned to Real Madrid’s training centre this morning for their second session with the Spanish giants.
The December sun was shining down at the players put in a brilliant effort with the Real coaches.
The Spanish capital has a noticeably festive feel this month as the Repton Dubai students took part in a guided sightseeing tour of the city.
With lots of iconic spots in the centre of Madrid, the students got to know their host city a little bit better.
They had time to stop off at the Christmas markets too!
Day 6 | Tues 10th Dec
After experiencing life at Real Madrid’s training base, Repton’s students got a glimpse at where the big moments happen for Los Blancos - the Santiago Bernabéu.
With an impressive redevelopment nearing completion, the group got a look at the innovative new pitch and - of course - the numerous Champions League trophies.
Today there was a chance for a little bit of retail therapy at the nearby outlet mall.
With Christmas approaching, there may even have been some gifts purchased for friends and family back home!
