English Day is coming!!

Next September 24th is the English Day taking place in our school and everyone seems to be very exited about this. There are many activitites being organized by students and teachers working together to make this day one of the best of the year.

In my opinion this is a great opportunity for all the students to improve their knowledge about many English speaking countries.

Also, they´ll be able to have a great time and enjoy next to their teachers and friends.
