Como cada viernes, os ponemos al corriente de lo que pasa en cada una de nuestras casas este weekend. Sin olvidarnos de los vuelos que aterrizan, o bien, despegan, hacia un país extranjero con los cursos de English Summer SA. Cada vez son más los niños y niñas que han vivido una English Summer experience en nuestros campamentos de inglés, pero aun nos queda un buen rato de diversión y aprendizaje en Vallclara, Poblet, Tamarit y Prades. También quedan muchas más aventuras por conocer de los estudiantes que están a punto de realizar uno de nuestros cursos de idiomas en el extranjero este…
DAY 12 Bournemouth – Laser Tag and Disco!
Hello everyone! We’re not ready to come back home, and especially not after this amazing day at the language course abroad.

Straight after lunch we walked to Laser Quest, which combines the classic game of hide-and-seek and laser tag. We were divided into two major groups and each group was then split into two teams: red and blue. We all did great!! The students then…
DAY 11 Bournemouth – Water sports!
Good morning everyone! Only a few more days until we fly back home. We wish we could stay longer in the English course abroad… After an early breakfast we went to class.

Right after lunch we went back to the accommodation to put our swimsuit on. We set off by coach at 2.15 p.m. to Southbanks. We then split into two groups. The first group did sea kayaking and paddle surf while the other was waiting on…
SECOND WEEK in Malvern
Hi families! How are you? It was a fantastic weekend, we went to London on Saturday and we spent such an amazing time there. The four hours trip was absolutely worth it. That night we were so tired that we only talked about our experience in the big city for a while and went to sleep quite early. On Sunday, we had a relaxed morning, we all went to the town park and had a drink. In the afternoon, the students chose between playing football or volleyball. Later on, we watched a film and we went to bed to recover energy in order to…

Hello families and friends! Temperature is slowly dropping back to normal. Luckily it’s still sunny in this language course abroad, and hopefully it won’t rain any time soon.

We started the new English project; this week the topic is «The future». At lunch time we discussed with our friends which afternoon activity we wanted to do: bottle rocket or dance…

DAY 7 Bournemouth – Day trip to London!

Conversation never let up during the 2h 30 min journey. Due to the protests our plans changed. Originally we were going to stop off at Leicester Square, however because of the Trump related protests we instead headed for Westminster. Once we arrived the students were taken on a walking tour of House of Parliament, Big Ben, Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square. For lunch we enjoyed a much…
