OXFORD

      Today at 9 o’clock we went to school like every day. We learnt the passive and active voice and we heard two songs about the conditional and passive voice.

      After the lessons we went to the railway station. We had to wait the train for half an hour. After that we arrived in Oxford. We visited the city centre and we entered University College. We also visited the oldest library of Oxford. Then we had free time to go shopping and we bought a lot of things.
      Back in Leamington we went home and we enjoyed with our families.

DISCOVERING ROYAL LEAMINGTON SPA

      Today before starting the English lessons at 9 o’clock, we were planning what to do for the Party and Farewell next Friday evening. In class we revised the sonnets we wrote last week. We also did some exercises in pairs on conversations as between a doctor and his patients. We practised the prepositions and learnt a bit more about their use as we have some confusions when to use one or another.

      After class we went to the park to have our lunch. In the afternoon we explored Leamington with an across the board game. It was not easy to follow the instructions some times because we didn’t understand the instructions sometimes for we got confused between east and west. Some of us found it difficult for we had to walk.

      When time was over we went to the Bowls lawn and had a game. It seems to be easy get de bowls near the jack but it is not because the bowls are not balls and they roll turning one or other side. People passing by stared at us thinking we were practising for the next week National Championship of English Bowls in Leamington.

TRIP TO ALTON TOWERS

      Today we went to Alton Towers. We were in Newbold Terrace at 8:15 except Fr J who arrived late when everyone was in the coach. We arrived in Alton Towers at 10:30 and we went to the rides in groups of 5-6. We went firstly to Oblivion and then to Thirteen and to The Smiler, the new ride from this year. It is amazing, but we were queuing for an hour, what was short time if we compare that when we arrived they show the queue was for 180 minutes. From The Smiler we went to Rita and because we had some time left we went back to Oblivion.

      At 5:30 we met everybody and took the coach back to Leamington. On arriving at 8:00 pm I went to Aunty’s house for dinner and stayed for a film. When I was back home I went straight to sleep.
