What a fantastic day! Not only have we done English classes and Olympics, but also we have spent an awesome afternoon at the swimming pool.          As you all know today the pirates have invaded Vallclara. Jack Sparrow and his crew (Bears, Dolphins, Foxes and Snakes) have fought against Captain Barbossa’s crew (Bees, Eagles, Geese and Turtles) to conquer the Black Pearl.
