Easter Egg Hunt

How much fun we had today looking for Easter Eggs!

The Squirrels (P3), Wolves (P4) and Bears (P5) looked for Easter eggs in the school playground!

There were yellow, green, purple, red, blue... lots of colored eggs!

We did some exercise before starting. We sang the song and looked for the eggs.

Here you have some pictures, to see how good the children did!

Happy St. George's day

The 23rd April we celebrate Sant Jordi, called Saint George in English. 
Saint George is the Patron Saint of England and Sant Jordi is the Patron Saint of Catalonia. It's a very special day for us and we give roses and books as gifts for the loved ones. 
The tradition of giving a rose as a gift comes from the legend of Saint George: he saved the princess from the dragon and from the dragon's blood grew a red rose bush. Then Saint George gave a rose of that bush to the princess. 
The tradition of giving a book as a gift comes from UNESCO declaring the 23rd April the International Day of the Book as the 23rd April 1616 was the date of the death of the English playwright William Shakespeare and the Spanish writter Miguel de Cervantes. 
Enjoy the "Diada" and enjoy reading! Books are wonderful friends, they never leave you alone, they can be fun, you learn a lot from them and they take you to fantastic places!!!
