Saint Patrick’s Day the BrainBox Way! 🍀

 Today in class with 2º ESO we celebrated Saint Patrick’s Day in a different way — by playing a BrainBox game! 🍀

It turned out to be such a fun and engaging activity. The students were not only enjoying the game, but also learning lots of interesting facts about Saint Patrick, Irish traditions, and symbols like shamrocks and leprechauns. It was great to see how quickly they picked up new vocabulary and shared what they remembered with their classmates.

What I loved the most was the atmosphere in the classroom: lots of laughter, teamwork, and genuine curiosity. Learning really comes alive when students are having fun, and today was a perfect example of that.

Definitely an activity to repeat!

Let's go to the lab!

Let’s go to the lab!

This year, our Biology and Geology teachers have refurbished the laboratory, and our 1st, 3rd, and 4th grade students have already gone to the lab to carry out some very exciting experiments. The 1st and 3rd grade students have dissected organs and vertebrates to learn more about their anatomy and physiology. Meanwhile, the 4th grade students have extracted DNA and observed mitosis in plant cells! 

Moreover, as part of our TEAM project (Together Everyone Achieves More), the 1st grade students have carried out several teamwork projects, such as creating posters about invertebrates and building models of viruses and bacteria. Here you can see some pictures of these amazing experiences:

Color Theory: Exploring Emotion Through Color

    One of the most important elements in art is the use of color. In this project, we explored how color can be used intentionally and how it can evoke different emotions and sensations. Color is not just a visual element it has the power to influence how we feel and how we interpret an image.

    The challenge consisted of creating three drawings and painting each one of them using a specific color scheme: complementary colors, analogous colors, and triadic colors. Through this exercise, we were able to experiment with contrast, harmony, and balance, leading to a better understanding on how different color combinations create different emotional effects.

    These are the artworks created by our students of 2ºESO during the project, each one representing a unique approach to color and expression.

ONE OF OUR CHALLENGES THIS YEAR.....GLOBAL SCHOLARS.

A group of 2ESO students have been working with partners from different countries discussing about FOOD, how it is grown, under which circumstances, how it is transported to our homes and supermarkets. Sustainability, food security or food waste are among the terms they are concerned with. 

They have created a cookbook in which they have included recipes from their families and home countries. Let´s have a look at them in the following link:

Thank you for all your time, effort and commitment. 

Pyramids of Giza - 1ºESO model creation project

 

During the first weeks of February 2026, our 1st ESO students explored one of the most fascinating civilizations of the ancient world: Ancient Egypt. As a final project, they created models inspired by the Pyramids of Giza, integrating the religious and cultural elements studied in class.

Their models included burial chambers, sarcophagi, scenes of the judgment of the soul, and representations of different gods. Some projects also showed aspects of Egyptian economy, such as agriculture along the Nile, craft workshops, and trade activities, highlighting the social and economic foundations that made these great constructions possible.

The result has been a creative exhibition that reflects both their understanding of the topic and the artistic skills of our students. 

 

Electronic practices in 3ESO

In 3ESO Technologies 2nd term classes, we are studing electronics. 

Our last circuit controls the brightness of a light with a potentiometer or variable resistor. 

Here are some students projects:

WORKING HARD FOR OUR B2 CAMBRIDGE EXAM

 📚✨ **Working Hard for Our B2 Cambridge Exam!** ✨📚

Our 4th ESO class is fully committed to preparing for the B2 Cambridge exam. We know that success doesn’t happen by chance — it comes from dedication, effort, and constant practice.

In class, we work hard every day to improve all our skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. We practise real exam tasks, do mock exams, learn useful vocabulary, review grammar, and help each other grow. Sometimes it’s challenging, but we know that every activity brings us one step closer to our goal.

Preparing for the B2 exam is not just about passing a test. It’s about building confidence, improving our English, and opening doors for our future studies and careers.

We are proud of our effort, our teamwork, and our progress. Step by step, we are getting closer to success! 💪🌍
