Default Catequésis Question

My 8-year old daughter is doing her catequésis classes. Although we are CofE, she was keen to do it because all her class at school do, and I couldn't see why not.

A funny thing has come up though ... we got a letter from the parish to say that on Monday the whole catequésis class is going to the church for a renovación del bautismo.

My question is ... Does this mean she will effectively become a bapitzed Catholic on Monday?

Not that I mind. I'm just curious. And I don't want to raise it with the priest, because I don't want to risk creating a big drama for my little girl.

You should raise it with the priest. Nothing to worry about. He may speak enough English if you don't get on in Spanish.
Moreover, I'd very much doubt that she'll "become catholic" simply by having attended catequésis classes or even being part of a 'renovacion del bautismo'.
In the end, he'll be pleased that you have shown enough interest for your daughter to attend.
