Our country

Our school is in Cabrera de Mar, about 20 km away from Barcelona. We live in Catalonia, which is an area in the North East of Spain.

2nd ESO students have written short descriptions of our country, including topics as typical dishes or traditions, climate or landscape.

Informal emails

Nowadays, not many people write informal letters anymore because we tend to write an email instead of that older way of communication. 

3rd ESO students have written short informal emails as a way of practising this writing task. Here we are showing you a small part of those emails. They were asked to write to a friend, planning a visit in their home town and giving some news, too.

Tió

In a few days we are starting our Christmas celebrations. In Catalonia we have some curious celebrations, as having to hit a log (Tió) which after a few days having been fed, gives us some presents. Or we include a small character next to Baby Jesus who is... Well, he's called the 'Caganer'.
