Valentine's Day

Hello again!
Valentine's Day is a special day for people in love. But not only for lovers: friends and families also show their love and friendship for each other.

People exchange cards, gifts, chocolates, hugs, kisses, flowers and other sorts of presents. They send each other messages over the net, through mobile phones. Some people are even more original: they sing serenades, they rent planes that fly in the sky with a strip that says "I LOVE YOU" and dedicate love songs over the radio.

During our English classes, the love spirit has entered our minds too. We made our own Valentines. Some will be sent to our special friends, some are already posted on our school library wall.

MAKE THIS A UNIQUE DAY FOR YOU AND YOUR SPECIAL FRIEND!

St. Valentine's Day

Every year this special date is celebrated all over the world.
But as we all know, there is a side of consumerism in all this...
Anyway...Happy Valentine's Day

Hallowe'en



Halloween (or Hallowe’en) is an international holiday celebrated on the evening of October 31; today it is often celebrated in the morning and afternoon as well. Halloween activities include trick-or-treating, ghost tours, bonfires, costume parties, visiting haunted attractions, carving jack-o'-lanterns, reading scary stories, and watching horror movies. Irish and Scottish immigrants carried versions of the tradition to North America in the nineteenth century. Other western countries embraced the holiday in the late twentieth century. Halloween is celebrated in several countries of the Western world, most commonly in the United States, Canada, Ireland, Puerto Rico, Japan, Australia, United Kingdom, and at times in parts of New Zealand.
