Stay in Broadstairs, England, October 2017

Thirty-one 3º and 4º de ESO students, toghether with two of their teachers, Joel Gallardo Arrebola and María Eugenia Godoy Talamonte, have participated in a stay in Broadstairs, Kent, England from 22nd to 29th October.

They didn't stay in a hotel nor in a residence: English host families put them up for a week. The students not only attended Kent School of English, where they took an English language course by native teachers, but also took part in several motivating and fun activities such as, Disco Night, Karaoke, Bowling, Sports, Quiz Night, Barn Dance, Coastal Walk, Gymkana and so on. 

They visited two nearby towns: Ramsgate and Margate. Besides they had a guided city tour in Canterbury and Cambridge. In Cambridge they ejoyed a river cruise on "punts" and visited one of the university colleges. 

They have used English in real communicative contexts and learnt about the culture that the English language transmits.

We hope to come back again next year as it has been a great experience!!

Welcome Zianna!!!

We are lucky to have an assistant teacher this year at school. I won't introduce her, she will:

Hi there!My name is Zianna, and I am here for the year to help out with teaching English. I share my time here between two schools, IES Salvador Rueda and IES Juan de la Cierva.I am from Manchester, England and live in the countryside with my parents, in the Valley of Rossendale. I also have an older brother who lives in the French Alps. I am currently studying Spanish at the University of Warwick, and live at the university in a house with my two best friends. This year is my third year at university, and I will return next September for my final year before I graduate!In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with my friends, climbing and water sports, although I don’t get much chance to do water sports in England! I also like listening to all different types of music and going to concerts.So, I guess that’s it for now, but I would love to get to know you all a little better. If you see me around, please don’t be shy, say hi and introduce yourself. I don’t bite!!

We do hope you have a great time with us this year, Zianna.

Same time passport to seven different English speaking countries

Last Friday, our 3º and 4º de ESO students guided both their teachers and schoolmates into the history, traditions, culture and stereotypes of seven different English speaking countries in the world: England, Scotland, Ireland, the USA, Canada, Australia and India.

Each country was exhibited in different rooms by means of music, dancing, singing, shows, lectures, dialogues, role-plays… It goes without saying all our students put their English into practice one way or another.

It was a highly informative and fun “journey” we didn’t need a passport or money for!!!

City Race IES Salvador Rueda 2017

After runners arrive at our school, they will find that today's specials are based on different parts of the English speaking world. They will be able to try American Meatloaf, as well as British Chicken Pie together with some Australian salad.  Besides they will be treated with some Spanish Bizcocho, either with or without chocolate on it. They will most surely enjoy it all!!!! They deserve it just because of the great effort made on such a hot day.........
