The Alfea School for Fairy Education (commonly referred to as Alfea) is located on Magix.

Alfea is an ancient school for fairies to attend in order to learn how to wield their magic.

## Education

Fairies come to Alfea in order to learn how to effectively utilize their magical abilities. There's a wide variety of courses taught at Alfea - including core classes, specialized classes, and electives.

Students live on campus in provided dormitories. The campus features a large library, classrooms, and an Archival Center. Typically, the education lasts three years.

### The First Year

Freshman fairies learn basic magical skills and coping strategies for their Source of magic. Fairies work toward achieving their wings and learning how to use the Winx form.

### The Second Year

Sophomore fairies build upon the education they received in their previous year. This year is typically when a professor will provide them with a Charmix in order to help them develop further as a fairy. In most cases, the prospect of exploring a Linked Source will be considered during this year as well.

### The Third Year

In their final year, fairies focus on improving upon and honing their magical skills and abilities in order to be fully prepared for their future endeavors. They also have the option of striving towards the illusive Enchantix form, although it isn't a requirement to graduate.
