Come on pirates, let's go to the theatre!

Today the boys and girls of 5th and 6th grade have been to the theatre in Vilanova i la Geltrú.

It was a beautiful sunny morning. We have walked to the Círcol Catòlic to watch TREASURE ISLAND, the play that we have been learning about.

It has been a great morning. They play has been easy to understand, funny and entertaining. Most of the students liked it. Some of them have been up on stage.

Here are some pictures of the play:

Today you have behaved very well during the walking trip to the theatre. Thank you for coming and for your attention and effort. You have been great! Here is a PRESENT for you with the photos that we took at the park:

Listen to some of our chants

We would like to present you some of the songs that we do in class. The boys and girls of P4 are happy to show their mummies and daddies how well they can sing.

Here's the classic "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes":

You can also watch the original video we use in class and you can practise at home all the family together. Come on, it's very easy!

This is another song we do in class. It's called "Open, Shut" and it's original by http://supersimplelearning.com/ a website we totally recommend you. You can find lots of similar videos to listen to and watch at home:

Now you can watch the original video and join your children for a super fun singing afternoon!

We like helping animals!

Today in the playground the boys and girls of Kindergarten have found this LOVELY BIRD!

It is very SMALL and it can only FLY low.

Quicky they have called the teachers and we have helped him go back to the TREE.

There, it has waited for MUMMY and DADDY BIRD.

We are all very happy to save our friend, the bird.

Why don't you think of a NAME for the bird???? Write your ideas in the comments section.

A trip to the theatre! TARZAN (3rd and 4th Grades)

Last Thursday 11th April, we went to the theatre in Vilanova i la Geltrú to see the play Tarzan, all in English!    It was very funny, we laughed a lot!

This is Jane the photographer, and Clayton the hunter. They are looking for monkeys in the jungle.

These are Tarzan and his monkey Cheeta. Tarzan is strong, brave and attractive. But he smells very bad! So, he asks for help from his animals friends about personal hygiene.

Andrea Riol (3rdA), Joan R. (4thA) and Melissa (teacher) participated in the story! They did a competition: Melissa had to mime some animals and the children had to guess them.

A crocodile eats Clayton:

Now Jane likes Tarzan and Tarzan likes Jane. They fall in love...

It was a fantastic play, we had a lot of fun!

What's your opinion about the play? You can write your comments here (remember to write your name and class).

A project with a school in Hungary

We are happy to announce that we have started a project with a school in Hungary.

Our partner school is St Andrew and it's in a town called Szentendre, in the north of the country and close to the capital, Budapest. The English teacher Eszter and Michael got in contact to work together in this cultural project.

We have started this project with a presentation video:

In their video the boys and girls from Hungary show images and some text talking about the country, their town, the school and themselves. Here is the video from our Hungarian friends:

And here is the video of the boys and girls of 5th grade of Les Roquetes School. The students brought all the images, photos and music in the video. They wanted to show the typical places and things of our country and culture.

We are very happy and excited about making new friends. We are looking forward to the second part of this project.

Thank you very much for the effort! It's fantastic!

By the way: you can leave your comments and opinions in the comments section below.
