30th January. School Day of Non-violence and Peace.

Hello,
We have displayed some peacemakers and we have created a QR code to get more information about them. Our students made a project about these pepacemakers you can see on the picute below two years ago.










We have also sung the song  "El mismo sol" by Álvaro Soler.

There is a  pecial version of "El mismo sol" ft. Jennifer López.

Children are sticking their sun to make a big one. You can read Malala's message in the middle:
"Un niño, un maestro, un lápiz y un libro pueden cambiar el mundo".
"A boy, a teacher, a pencil and a book can change the wolrd".


























Students, teachers and parents went out to the playgroung yesterday morning at midday to sing the song "Bajo el mismo sol".


















"Bajo el mismo sol" by Álvaro Soler ft. Jennifer López Spanish version.



"Under the same sun" Álvaro Soler ft. Jennifer López English version.

English: second term.

Hi everyone,
Last weekend some friends from London visited Alicante and they came to my village, Sant Joan d'Alacant where I was born and I live. We had a really good time and laughed a lot. London is a cosmopolitan city, then my friends come from different places: Asia, Africa, Europe and South America.
I suggested that they could draw a free picture for this second term. Almudena drew this beautiful picture. Do you know what it is?






















Listen to this song about London. You will love it.

Which is your favourite one?
Mine is: "You will never win if you never begin".RH Schuller, Motivational speaker.

I want to share this song by John Lennon called "So this is Christmas" (War is over). We must think about the consequences of war and violence and the impact on children.





Do you know anybody who has been exposed to war?

Do you know that a lot of children lose the opportunity of schooling?
Do you know that a lot of children lose their community and culture?

Hello everyone,
How many days left until Christmas Eve? And Christmas Day?
Santa is visiting us next week and he's checking his list.
Have you been naughty or good?

Santa is an old man who has got a long beard and a big moustache. He has got a red and white suit and brown boots. He has got a lot of presents for children in his sack.
He has got helpers called elves and a famous reindeer which guides him called Rudolph.

Year 6 student, Amanda, has drawn this pic of Santa for a friend in England and Year 4 students, Lucía and Nebdret have coloured it. Do you like this pic of Father Christmas?
