17th March : St Patrick’s Day

This year, it is impossible to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day  as we used to do it, singing and dancing ( like Irish people do ) but we don’t want to forget this important day for those who admire and respect Irish culture.

If you want to know something about this day, you can have  a look at three  presentations (one of them made by Ashley,our American language assistant in  2017-2018 course).

And finally, we can listen to a song by the most famous Irish Band, U2.

We will discuss this topic in our classes of English and we will watch some TED- ed videos two videos about the history of women’s rights and seven videos about scientists, artists,politicians,etc. to introduce the role of women in different societies and cultures. At the end, we will read a short comic which illustrates the birth of this celebration.

AUSTRALIA

Taking advantage of all the information we are getting from our language assistant, Holly Fairweather, 2º and 4º ESO students are making a big panel about nature, society and culture in this amazing country which is so far from us but it’s getting closer thanks to our students and Holly.

A sky full of stars

Carl Sagan said  “we are made of star stuff” and that is the reason why  our students have chosen this symbol to fill our school with colour and imagination.

Nowadays, we need fresh air more than ever and our sky is full of stars to bring us a healthier world.  This constellation represents all our students’ wishes and feelings about a better  future.

We want to thank the Arts teacher Leticia and all her students to have made up an amazing work of art which illuminates our stairwell and helps us to face our daily routine in the best spirit.
