Hello families… and good bye Rathdown! With a great nostalgia and sadness, here I am writing the last post of what has been an incredible adventure. The kids are sad as well, because this fifteen days, that have been a new and fantastic experience for them, are coming to an end. I’m sure they have plenty of things to explain to you. Yesterday was the last day in Rathdown school. The day went as usual: breakfast at 8:00 am, first English lesson at 9:00 am, then a 30 minutes break, and more English classes until 12:30 am. At 13:00 pm…

Oakham DAY 11 – We turn into professional musicians!
Hello families and friends! The countdown starts and we wish we could stay longer. Classes have been very productive; we have done some vocabulary about family and also some grammar. Lunch was mouth-watering! We have already tried so many typical British dishes. They are all amazing and so different from our gastronomy. In the adventure camp they have gone climbing, it has been great! The others students have as usual divided in two groups; some have done tie dye while the others have played capture the flag. Afterwards, we have all together played the ukulele. We are professional musicians now!…
