POTLUCK 2014

Today after school, for the second time in two years, we organized a potluck with all the groups from 2nd of Bachillerato. A potluck is a get together where you have to bring food and share it with everyone else. For this reason, some of the synonyms of potluck are "bring and share", "shared lunch" or "dish to pass". The tradition says that each dish has to be big enough to be shared among all the participants.
The potluck was a great success. It showcased some of the traditional dishes from Spain, such as mouthwatering home-cooked French, Spanish and eggplant tortillas, empanadas, salads, snitzels, stuffed filet, chorizo, salchichón, ..., different types of desserts like brownies, rice pudding, caramel pudding, peach cake, icecream and last but not least cupcakes and cakes decorated with the Canadian flag.
We would like to thank all the students for signing up and for contributing with a dish. Also  special thanks to the following teachers: Encarna, Juan and Mª Ángeles for helping out with the preparations.
As always, we had a delicious time together! Just click on the video and see!

WORLD BOOK DAY

In celebration of this year WORLD BOOK DAY, which takes place on 23rd April every year, my 4ºESO students and I have made a huge poster full of sentences beginning with "READING IS ..." on long strips of colourful papers and original bookmarks. Also some volunteers from other ESO groups have taken part in this activity.

DID YOU KNOW?
In England, to avoid clashing with St George's day on 23rd April, WORLD BOOK DAY is celebrated on the first Thursday of March every year.
