25th November: International Day against Gender Violence
During all this week, our students will participate in some activities, organized by the Coeducation Department , which focus on one of the most terrible violations against human rights : violence against women. It is a worldwide problem which we must fight to eliminate as soon as possible and to become aware of this cruel situation, we have prepared for our students in the classes of English some files with information and stories which exemplify this matter. We will also watch some videos made by the United Nations which will also motivate students to talk and discuss about this subject, trying to find possible solutions.
Here , you can have a look at those files we are going to work with and some of the videos we are going to watch. We will finish these activities listening to a song by Sara Bareilles which tells us the story of a girl in this situation.

End of term activity : Ancient Greece and Rome
The end of the term has come and we have just celebrated it with an Ancient Culture Party. Our 1 ESO students have had two days to find out the features of Ancient Greece and Rome participating in different activities . We started sharing some information on our big board which was very useful for the cultural contest which was won by 1 ESO B team.
On Thursday, students learn how to make the Greek and Roman costumes and ornaments they were going to wear on Friday. On Friday morning, students watched “Percy Jackson : Sea of Monsters” and after the film they played Seikilos Epitaph.
