TRAVELLING FOR A VICTORY

Summer 2012. Everything seemed going perfect. But once on board we took off delayed: 30 minutes is a huge of time when more and more people gather for Passport Control desks and claiming the luggage on the belts. We were lucky Captain got landing on time, and things were on wheels: desks, belts and coach waiting for us.
     Though there were not tv set, we followed the other match by BBC radio... and shouted full of joy, second and third and forth goals. We are the Champions.
     May it be an introduction for a successful Programme in England?
So we hope.

Saber idiomas es abrir fronteras...


Un cordial saludo desde los diferentes “blogs” de nuestros Cursos de Idiomas, cuya finalidad es la de ser puentes de relación y comunicación con todos los padres, madres, familiares y amigos de cada uno de nuestros estudiantes.

Deseamos, que mediante los mismos, todos nos sintamos suficientemente informados de las diferentes actividades y de la marcha general de cada uno de los grupos. Ello contribuirá a la tranquilidad y confianza de saber que vuestros hijos e hijas aprovechan y cumplen los objetivos que nuestra Organización se ha propuesto realizar: divertirnos aprendiendo y madurar como personas. De esta manera contribuimos a hacer realidad que el “saber idiomas es abrir fronteras”.

OUR LAST DAY



BIRMINGHAM (THE RETURN)

On Thursday we had our English morning lessons in which we worked really had to make a good performance in Fridat, when some of us had to sing a song to the host families, while others had to make a presentation about the favourite part of the whole experience.
In the afternoon we went to Birgmingham, a city we've already been. This time we had free time. Those who wanted, follow Father Jesus and we visited the hall, a monument dedicated to those who fight during the Second World War and the Symphoni Hall, which has a really good accoustic. We found the table tennis's tables that are around the city due to London 2012. It was really nice to play a tennis table match! What a shame that it started raining!
After that, we went to the Bullring and had a lovely day of shopping.
We came back to Leamington by train and we went home with our host families.

HP!

On Wednesday we started with English lessons, and everything seemed to be as everyday, but the leaders had a surprise for us: instead of going to the bowling alley, that afternoon we could choose between going to the cinema to watch Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows (part 2) or going to the swimming-pool. Most of us chose Harry Potter, so we all end up going there. A lot of us bought popcorn and a large bottle of pepsi. We were so thrilled that we could hardly shut up during the film. It was amazing to see the final fight between Harry and Lord Voldemort, or that was what some of us think, because others were getting really bored.
When the film finished, we had some free time, and after that we came back home with our host families.

STRATFORD & SHAKESPEARE

On Tuesday we started the lessons at nine o'clock, like every morning. We are in Mr. Khalid's group and that day we were doing speaking all the morning. After that, we went to Victoria Gardens and we had lunch there. We were very comfortable lying on the grass and we had a very good lunch. Then we had to go to the Parish Church to take the bus to Stratford.
When we arrived at Stratford, we got out the bus and the first stop of our trip was visiting Shakespeare's house, the place where he lived during his childhood. First we watch a video about his life and his work and then we visited all the rooms in the house, where there were people that explained things about how Shakespeare's family lived. And when we were finishing the visit, we saw an actor that knew a lot of plays by heart and we saw him performing some parts of them. One of the girls, Maria, had to play the Juliet role. It was really amazing!
After this, we had free time and while a part of our group went shopping, the other one follow Father Jesus to visit the church where Shakespeare is buried. We could see his grave there. Next, we visit a theater.
After, some of us took a boat and others went to McDonal's to eat an ice-cream. We met at five and we went back to Leamington and then we went home and spent the evening with the host family.
