SPRING FAIR 2012
Dear Mr Legaz and Class 9B
On behalf of La Associación Española Contra el Cáncer and Montessori school we would like to thank you for providing books and make up stall for our spring fair 20th April 2.00-4.30 pm.
Could we ask you to abide by the following:
·    Tables should be taken from the main school building for your stall and returned there after 4:30.
·    All litter must be cleared away at the end of the fair
·    Money should be delivered to reception not later than 4:40.
·    There must be someone responsible for the stall at all times
We sincerely hope you enjoy the day!

Updates for ALL

As you have noticed , there are some updates and changes in the webpage. As I said to you, this is a lively web where you suppose  to come and visit regularly to read, learn and interact with other people. The new chat will help you to do that in a safe environment. I do hope you find the surveys useful and you enjoy any link and extra piece of information I provide on here. I will try to put some more challenges for those interested in getting house points. Thank you all for making this possible!

My tutor group (9B)



A couple of reminders for my tutor group (9B)

1.- DO NOT FORGET to bring your products for the stall in the spring fair next Friday (20/04/12). Remember, we all agreed to bring books, old video games, teddy bears, toys or anything you think it could be sold and interesting to other people and you do not use it at home any more and it is in good condition or brand new.

2.- During PSHE next Thursday (19/04/12) we need to finish off the posters about Human Rights and we need to create nice and catching posters for our stall of the Spring Fair.

REMEMBER: All the money that we will collect will be for charity, and this year we have chosen the important NGO.... "Asociación Española contra el Cáncer". 
So, we should devote our most serious efforts to collect lots of money for this organization.

Settlements... Year 7

In the last term we have been talking about settlements and redevelopment plans as a good way to increase the quality of life in many cities and change the run down areas. The following video shows the redevelopment plan generated in Barcelona for the olympic games of 1992. This video is showing how important this plan was for the city and they are wondering what will be happening in London 2012 after the olympics. 



Tourism web article about this issue

Just a quick message to include you a link with useful information about our unit of tourism. It is a useful reading  because they explain issues we have been talking about and will be in your test.
