Super Bowl Sunday

Today is Super Bowl XLV: Pittsburgh Steelers versus Green Bay Packers.

The Super Bowl is one of the most watched events in U.S. society. As American football is one of the most popular sports in the USA, many people tune in. However, almost as famous as the sport and the NFL (National Football League) teams are the commercials that show during the breaks. Super Bowl commercials are legendary. Check some out!

Kick off is at 5:30 CST (Central Standard Time). Also, go Steelers! (Explanation: Chicago Bears don't like Green Bay Packers.)

Happy Groundhog Day!

In the United States and Canada, February 2nd is called Groundhog Day (or día de la marmota)! On this day, we watch a groundhog emerge from its hole. If he sees his shadow, then we have six more weeks of winter. If he doesn´t see his shadow, then we know spring will be here soon! This year, he didn´t see his shadow, so let´s hope for warmer weather soon!

Of course, he´s only right about 37% of the time...

FRIENDSHIP'S DAY 14th February

St. Valentine's Day has been considered an advertising and marketing day designed only to make people consume. However, many people believe in its mithological origin and they enjoy this day celebrating it with their lovers.

From our school we would like St. Valentine to become the Friendship's Day. A day when you can tell the people you appreciate the most what you feel for them. So if you admire someone, take the opportunity and tell them how much you like, love or facy them.

It will be a very lovely memory and good action.

ENGLISH MARKET (ENGLISH EXCHANGE 2010-2011)

The group of students taking part in the English exchange are organising an English market to subsidize some of the trip expenses. This is why they have decided to turn the hall of our school into a market where they are going to sell: T-shirts with the exchange logo, second-hand books, accessories such hairbands, earrings, bracelets...or desserts from homemade recipes.


We hope your visit on 24th February and we wish you to enjoy it.
