TRANSLATION FOR THE SPANISH WORD MADRUGADORES INTO ENGLISH
 
Hello everybody,
I �m tryibg to find an English equivalent for a Spanish word (madrugadores) that is used to refer to a school programme. Thanks to this programme students at primary schools are received in the school by specialised staff an hour or two before the class starts.

An "early morning program" would be perfectly fine to say. But "early bird" is the more literal translation of madrugadores.

Thanks a lot to all these " madrugadores". We also have madrugadores in Portugal I didn �t have any idea how to translate it.
May be because I like to sleep late in the morning.
see you
