On Saturday we went to London

Last Saturday we went to London by bus. We arrived in London at 11.00. Then we did a city tour by bus where we saw the most important buildings. We left the bus in Picadilly Circus and most of us went to visit the British Museum and then the students had free time to go shopping in Oxford Street. We had a lovely day!

Visit to Birmingham city centre

Yesterday, in the afternoon, we went to Birmingham city centre. We visited Victoria Square where there was a street market. Later, we went for a walk in the city centre and the students went shopping in New Street. We took some pictures of the group in these places.

 

We are looking forward to reading your comments about our pictures. Thanks a lot.

 

Regards from Birmingham.

 

 

Break

Yesterday we wnt to Oxford by bus. It was a long trip. There were lots of univerties, museums and lots of transport. When I went to the toilet, it was busy, whilst the other students bought food. The weather was good, we sat in the sunshine, but then it began to rain and we went round the square.

Our college this year

This is our college this year.

Today we have been to Oxford

Yesterday I woke up and I had my breakfast. My breakfast was an orenge juice and milk with cereals. After that I got the bus number 30 and I arrived at Solihull city center at 8.10. Then I got the bus number 6 and I arrived at Hall Green Collage. Then all the group got the bus from the college to get to the other college in Birmingham.

 

At 9.30 we had our first class, but Serena didn't come because she was ill, and we had class with Rosana. Later we had a break of 30 minutes and in this break we ate the packed lunch. After that we had our second lesson with Mick. Then we got the bus and we began our travel to Oxford.

 

The trip lasted one hour and 30 minutes. We stayed in Oxford and there we could see the museums and the Harry Potter Castle. But I saw them last year so I went shopping with my friends. I bought a T-shirt of Oxford and earrings. We finished our trip and we came back to Solihull.

 

Then I got the bus and I arrived home, then I had dinner and we played X-Box, then I had a shower and T went to sleep.

Trip to Oxford

I got up at 6:45 and I prepared all my clothes, then I got into the kitchen to have breakfast. At 7:40 I was getting out from my home because I had to take the bus at 8:00 at a stop that is nearly fifteen minutes from home, but the bus arrived ten minutes late so I had to wait some minutes there. Then I arrived to Robin Hood Island where Irene (a friend) was waiting for me. When we met, we crossed Stratford Road to get the bus number 6. When we were there, we met Angela and M. Carmen who were also going to Hall Green School. Five minutes later, we stopped in front of the school and there we met the rest of the group. There we took the school bus, when we arrived, we started the lessons, which finished at 13:00. Then we took the bus to go to Oxford, we arrived at 15:30, Jose Antonio explained that we could go to visit a College, but I went shopping with friends.

Yesterday we went skating

Yesterday, 5th of July, was the second day for us here, we went skating. It was amazing, but a lot of people didn't know now to skate. Wheares, finally all the people could later, we went to the centre of Solihull to go shopping. It was a funny day!

 

Now we have publish a lot of pictures. I hope we like them.

Lessons have just started

Despues de pasar la primera noche en casa de cada una de las respectivas familias inglesas, llego el momento de enfrentarse a la prueba de nivel, que resulto ser un exito, y de formalizar los dos grupos que, a partir de hoy, han empezado sus clases sin ningun problema. De momento, los chicos y chicas que comparten con nosotros este verano se estan comportando perfectamente y
estan disfrutando de este curso, tanto a nivel academico como cultural.

Hoy, a primera hora del dia, todos los alumnos y alumnos se concentraron en el punto de encuentro para trasladarnos todos juntos hasta las instalaciones, y asi poder empezar las clases a la hora prevista. A continuacion, hemos publicado unas cuantas fotos que son muestra de ello.

Esta tarde, despues del lunch, tenemos previsto ir al skating, donde podran disfrutar de la magnifica pista de hielo. Las fotos las publicaremos al dia siguiente.
