On our last letter to our friends in Moulins (France) and Fuengirola (Málaga), we wrote about our past lives. We even took a picture of ourselves with an aging app to look old. It was fun making up interesting lives in the past, and so it was reading theirs. 

Year 2 continues exchanging cards with their penpals at Highfields Primary in Rowley Regis.

This time, we made Easter Bunnies.

And they sent us Easter eggs and chicks.

Thank you very much!!! We'll keep in touch.

Todo comezou coma unha actividade máis na aula de inglés. Habitualmente lemos novas relacionadas co inglés en twitter. Despois comentámolas na clase e a veces respondemos.

Desta volta, tocoulle a un artigo do Daily Mail que compartiron os nosos amigos de @GalegoenLondres, un instituto londinense onde imparten a materia de Galego. Nese artigo dicíase que o cantante Ed Sheeran mercara o bar "Galicia" de Portobello e tiña pensado convertilo nun local vip con música en directo. Tamén comentaba como os veciños dos arredores mostraban o seu desencanto coa transformación do local.

Trala lectura da noticia, xurdiu a idea de escribir tweets argumentando razóns polas que Ed Sheeran non debía mudar o Galicia. Creamos o cancelo #ReasonsWhyEdSheeranShouldntTransformGalicia e...

Tachán! Dous días despois, os nosos tweets aparecen no xornal La Vanguardia! Non o podiamos crer! E agora en El Correo Gallego.

Tiñamos intentado contactar con J.K Rowling sen éxito, recibido "gústames" de Vero Boquete ou Rozalén cando compartimos o videoclip da Porta Violeta, incluso mensaxes de Rebecca Howsking e Xabier Díaz cando Uxío cantou unhas coplas en Botamos un Baile; pero isto... nunca nos pasara.

Y5 have received postcards from their penpals at Fuengirola telling us about their city. They also sent us a poster and some bookmarks. We loved the impressive views!!!There is a beautiful castle and a long beach. There are tall buildings of flats and hotels. Now, it is our turn to tell them about our village, Sigüeiro. Thank you friends!

After exchanging Christmas cards, now it's time to exchange Valentine's Day cards with our penpals at Rowley Regis, near Birmingham (UK). We told them about our "Candeas" celebration on February 2nd. It is said that birds get married on that day. There is also a traditional saying that goes: Cando a Candeloria chora, o inverno vai fóra; cando a Candeloria ri, o inverno está por vir. So we became weather forecasters and predicted that Winter is still around here.

And these are the cards we received from the UK.

 Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Today, in our first English lesson after the Christmas holidays, there was a mysterious box at the teacher's table. When we opened it, a smell of coffee invaded the room. The Christmas cards from our Turkish penpals!!!

Everyone got one card and a little present: a bracelet, a magnet, a bookmark... and even a coffe bag. They also sent coins and a flag! Thank you for everything!

O alumnado de 6º de Primaria interpretou o xoves no Salón de Actos esta coñecida panxoliña en dúas linguas: francés e inglés.

Aquí vos vai un cachiño...

 Merry Christmas!

Tras recibir as postais de Nadal dos nosos amigos/as do Reino Unido, os alumnos/as de 2º cantaron a canción "Christmas Cards Everywhere". E nunca mellor dito, as postais estaban por aquí, por acolá, por todas partes!

Year 1 students decorated our Christmas Tree with the letters in SANTA and STAR.

"Christmas cards here, christmas cards there, pictures of Christmas everywhere..."

We continue reinforcing our students' writing and speaking skills and fostering intercultural awareness. So, at this time of the year, we sing Christmas carols and send Christmas cards.

Y1 are sending Christmas cards to their friends at CRA de Oroso.

Y2 exchanged Christmas cards with students from Highfields Primary, in Rowley Regis (UK).

Y3 and Y4 are singing "We wish you a Merry Christmas" at the Assembly Hall next Thursday.

Y5 exchanged Christmas cards with their penpals in Trujillo (Cáceres) and Fuengirola (Málaga). They also sang "O Christmas Tree".

Y6 exchanged Christmas cards and a little gift with their penpals in Turkey. They are also singing "Jingle Bells" both in English and in French at the Assembly Hall next Thursday.
