SENDING SMILES...to Spain & Greece

Our class is pleased to announce that a new project has just been set up with two European classes; one from Greece and another one from Spain. The Spanish class comes from the 'Lo Romero' Primary School in the city of St. Joan of Alicante while the Greek class comes from the Primary School of Panagiouda in the island of Lesvos. The project will help us practice the use of our English language, make new friends as well as learn about new cultures. Following the first set of letters, the project was also registered as an E-Twinning project. In fact, all 3 classes have already sent introductory letters to each other as well as general information on the school, the town and the country they come from. Work is currently underway to send Christmas related material.

Underneath are some of the letters we received from the Greek school, which were on exhibtion earlier this week.
Underneath is a photo of of our greek friends when they recently visited a fire brigade station.

November 6th: Our class visited the Catacombs of St. Agatha. These Catacombs are very old and for us it was an excellent opportunity to get a first-hand look at what we had been learning in Chapter 2 of our Religion Book. After visiting these ancient Catacombs, we had our lunch and then walked to the beautiful Howard Gardens in Rabat.
