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.

Our students have made a huge poster to show information about this festivity

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.
