ENGLISH WEEK!

This year, for English Week we travelled to Canada! That's why our school was decorated with Canada's flag and some canadian symbols: beavers, hockey players...and look at Anita dressed as a mounted police officer!

We also decorated our hall with a huge mural with Canada's map and pictures of the most important places of the country:

We did a lot of fun activities! In the pictures below you can see our preschool and grade 1-2 schoolmates painting Canada's flag:

        

                 

We also learnt about Canada's most important cities and its history.

On Friday we enjoyed a lot of different games and activities. It was a blast!

 We can't wait for next year's English Week!!

Happy Father's Day!

On March 19th it was Father's Day! We made a lot of gifts for our parents. Take a look!

We bet our parents loved their gifts!

Día de Rosalía de Castro

O día 22 de febreiro celebramos o Día de Rosalía de Castro na escola.

A mellor poeta galega de todos os tempos naceu en Santiago de Compostela o 24 de febreiro de 1837 e faleceu en Padrón o 15 de xullo de 1885, á idade de 48 anos. A súa influencia na literatura galega e española é moi grande e por iso celebramos o seu día con murais, lendo os seus poemas e aprendendo sobre a súa vida.

Aquí están algúns dos murais nos que traballamos! 

Algúns teñen datos sobre a súa vida, como o que podes ver abaixo:

Mentres que outros inclúen algunhas dos seus poemas máis coñecidos, coma este, de Cantares Gallegos: 

E ti? Leches algún poema de Rosalía de Castro? Que che pareceron?

We dress up for Carnival!

Last Friday we held a big party in our school to celebrate the arrival of Carnival. We had great music, amazing food and a delicious hot chocolate. Have a look!

Mmmm!! Yummy!!!

Thanks to all the parents that cooked filloas, orellas and rosquillas for the party!

We wore our best Carnival costumes to the party. We dressed up as unicorns, superheroes, witches, troglodytes and many more. You can see our costumes in the pictures below!

We hope you all had an amazing Carnival with lots of fun and delicious food!!

Os Bolechas visit the school

A few days ago we had the pleasure to receive Os Bolechas in our school. They told our schoolmates from grades 3 to 6 about WEEE.

WEEE stands for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment. These residues are extremely dangerous for the environment and our health, so it is very important to have a good management of them.

We learnt how important the nine R's are for managing this kind of residues: rethinking, repairing, reusing, redesigning, redistributing, rebuilding, recycling, reducing and recuperation of energy.

Now we now more about how to take care of our planet and we are going to put all the advices in practice!

Day of Peace

Last Wednesday -30th of January- we celebrated the Day of Peace in our school.

In this special date, we wanted to show in our work how much we care about coexisisting in harmony, respecting our differences and treating others the same way we want to be treated. 

Grades 1 to 4 did this beautiful mural you can see below. It says: Peace is in our hands.

Our Preschool schoolmates did an amazing job too! Have a look:

  We also did some crafts about peace. They turned out fantastic!

And you? What do you do to spread peace in your everyday life?
