THEATRE DAY

 

 

Today is the day! We are going to the theatre in our school!!! And all this thanks to our parents´ association, that finances this event one more year.

Are you ready for a play full of fun? Well, let´s enjoy a modern version of  Robinson Crusoe: she is a champion surfer who lives in Malibu and is swept away by a tsunami to a desert island!!!

Pay close attention because some of the actors can be familiar...

Face2Face is the theatre company which will perform this funny play. They have been coming to our school for more than 10 years and they always surprise us! You have more information about them HERE.

Very many thanks to our ANPA MILNENOS for giving us the chance to learn English in such a fun way. 

Curtain up! Let the play begin!!!!

THEATRE DAY - "Robinson Crusoe" - 20th December 2023

CHRISTMAS JUMPER DAY

 

One more year, the English department celebrated the CHRISTMAS JUMPER DAY,  an annual charity event hold by the NGO "Save the children" in order to raise funds for the poor. It was first launched in 2012 and it has become extremely popular all over the world. This year it took place on the 18th of December, which was a magical day: all the pupils in year 5 and 6 wore funny festive jumpers to school instead of normal clothes in order to "MAKE THE WORLD BETTER WITH A SWEATER". We also played Secret santa, the game of the month. Would you like to see our faces opening the presents? Take a look...

It was a wonderful day, full of excitement, laughter, fun, unique sweaters and games.

ENCHANTED FORESTS


This year we will discover some enchanted places, the forests, as a way to participate in the school project of this year 2023-2024. 
Will you join us?

To do so, you need a forest and a walking stick for the walk. And time, you need time to observe. You also need a pair of special glasses. Don´t worry! You already have the glasses, since you were born. With them, you will discover the surprises of the forest. Watch with your 5 senses:

     - See all colours

     - Listen to all creatures

     - Smell all the aromas

     - Touch all surfaces

     -  and try new flavours,  which are different according to the season of the year

Come on! What are you waiting for? Close your eyes and listen to what we have recorded for you.  Have a nice experience!

They have shown their creativity and enthusiasm in every task.  At the bottom of this page there is a compilation of all of them. Good job!

PDI: "Galicianise yourself"

 

 

As you know, the topic of the PDI of this school year is “Galeguízate”  Well, in the English classroom we tried to give it an English “touch” and share it with our friends of a school in Manchester: St. James´ C of E Primary School.

What could we do? Well, first we translated the name of the project into English: “GALICIANISE YOURSELF”. Then we asked for some help to our dear native speakers: Susana Barreiro and Declan Mathews, regular collaborators of our school. Also, we invited Critina Pato and Marc Guscin to come and visit us. Finally, and after some research, we tried to explain our penpals in Manchester who we are. We divided our work in 3 terms:

      1.- During the first term we introduced ourselves as Galicians with the help of Susana Barreiro and Cristina Pato. 

      2.- On the second term we found out more our ancestors, the Celts, with Declan Mathews. 

     3.- And finally, on the third term, we discovered other Coruñas around the world thanks to Marc Guscin.

And we recorded everything in the school radio in some podcasts which we sent to Manchester. And they love our Project! 

Do you want to know more about it? Are you ready for a "Galician experience" in English? Take a look at this presentation: it is full of surprises!
