Our students' little treasures.




This term is becoming daunting, we all feel exhausted and suffering due to high temperatures. The end of the year is not a feat easily to accomplish... so how could we overcome these setbacks? Just let me suggest u something and share with us this mini-movie directed by Georgina Martínez our 2nd of ESO student. 
Well done!!! You are such a sensitive artist!!!

Teen Chef...

Ummm yummy...
Here we are again learning and tasting our recipes in order to celebrate Europe Day (9th May). With the help of our language assistant, students will show their recipes and will explain the process to their classmates. The winner will be chosen following 4 different criteria: appearance,taste,freshness and speaker's fluency.

Reading broadens your mind



Look in a Book

by Ivy O. Eastwick



Look
in a book
and you will see
words
and magic
and mystery.



Look
in a book
and you will find
sense
and nonsense
of every kind.



Look
in a book
and you will know
all
the things
that can help you grow.



In the main corridor of our high, you can find this stand with a lot of books that you can exchange.
It's quite easy, look for a book you have already read, dedicate it to the person who's going to borrow it, leave it there and choose another one for you.

This stall will be here for the next two or three weeks.

"I found TV very educating.
Everytime somebody turns on the set, 
I go into the other room and read a book"
