Year 7 ... Geography MAPS!!!!
Dear Year 7s,
I hope you find Geography interesting, I know you are noticing lots of changes from primary to secondary, but the sooner you get use to the changes, the better. During this first term I am teaching you about making and mapping connections and trying to teach you how to develop geographical skills and tools that you will use in the future. We have learnt about plans, scales, mental maps, sketch maps, real maps, grid references, OS maps, measuring distances between two places on a map, following directions, compass directions, etc
Here you have a very interesting link with information about maps. You can understand this information better as we have explained most of the information in our lessons. Do you see the importance of learning different subjects in the school? :-)

History... interesting caves
We have been talking about the meaning of "history" and "sources". One of the "sources" we could be using to explain issues of history comes from prehistoric caves.
I am including an interesting link with information about the most important prehistoric caves in Spain and the whole world. Have a quick look if you have time. They have done an excellent job. Enjoy the virtual visits through the webpage to most of the caves.

Population
Just a quick note for year 11. Here you have a very interesting link with information about changes and challenges of the population in China. Read the internet article, it could be useful as case study in the IGCSE.

Back to...
Dear students,
I would like to take this opportunity to welcome everyone back for the start of the 2012 – 2013 school year. Although I’m sure everyone hates to see their summer vacation come to an end, there is always a certain air of excitement about the start of a new school year. We are in our 3rd week in September, for that reason we are all more or less familiar with new timetables, rooms, books, and new teachers.
It is going to be a challenging year for us all (students, parents and teachers), with many different issues to deal with academically or not, in and out the school.
For that reason we all must make an extra effort in our own responsabilities, being supportive to each other.
- Students, I expect you work hard, study a lot, following school rules as you know them already.
- Parents, I know and appreciate your support and understanding of the hard work of teachers and special conditions we are going through at work. So, I give you all my biggest thank you in advance.
- Teachers (myself) As a teacher I understand the effort all of you (parents) are making to send your kids here and I will do my job as professional as ever to get outstanding and best academic results with every single student I am responsible in every subject, group and lessons I teach.
Ok, enough is enough... time to say bye for now.
I just wish you the best of luck to you all this year.
