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:

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! 💪🌍

PANCAKE DAY -SECOND EDITION-

  🥞 Pancake Day and Our Cooking Class

Yesterday in 2nd ESO we celebrated Pancake Day at school, and it was a day full of learning, laughter, and delicious food! Pancake Day, also known as Shrove Tuesday, is a traditional celebration that takes place before the season of Lent. In the past, people used up ingredients like eggs, milk, and flour before Lent began, and making pancakes was the perfect way to do this.

In our cooking class, we had the chance to make our own pancakes. We worked in groups to measure the ingredients carefully, mix the batter, and cook the pancakes in the pan. It was exciting to flip them (some flips were more successful than others!). The classroom smelled amazing, and everyone was proud of their results.

While we were cooking, we also learned about the history and traditions connected to Pancake Day. In some places, people even take part in pancake races, where they run while flipping pancakes in a frying pan! It was interesting to see how food can be connected to culture and history.

The best part of the day was sharing the pancakes together and adding our favorite toppings. Some chose sugar and lemon, others added chocolate spread or fruit. It was not just about eating—it was about working together, learning new skills, and understanding traditions from the past.

Learning about traditions while having fun makes school even more special. Pancake Day was a perfect example of how education can be hands-on, meaningful, and enjoyable at the same time.

Gymnastics classes in 2ºESO

 During the second term the students of 2ºESO practice different skills and specific elements that they must know to build their own exercise. Among these skills we can highlight rolls (forward and backward), vertical jumps, rotations, balances (such as handstand and headstand) and supports (like the nail and the bridge). Besides this, the students have to perform other skills like the horse jump.

The work is accompanied by Bach´s music which helps them concentrate and creates an atmosphere  suitable for gymnastics.

 

Teamwork and Orienteering in Action

 Our 3ºC students have recently taken part in a cooperative orienteering gymkhana designed to combine Physical Education and English in a practical and motivating way. This activity challenged them to work together while using English as their main language of communication throughout the different stages of the course.

Throughout this unit in Physical Education, we have been working on basic orienteering skills such as map reading, spatial awareness, and decision-making. During the gymkhana, students had to complete different physical challenges in groups while following instructions and communicating in English. The focus was not only on physical performance, but also on teamwork, cooperation, and effective communication.

Participating in this activity allowed students to experience how important collaboration is when facing challenges. They organised roles within their teams, supported each other, and used English as a real tool to solve problems and move forward in the course. Beyond completing the tasks, the most valuable achievement was strengthening their team spirit and confidence in using a foreign language in a practical context.

Congratulations to 3ºC for their positive attitude, effort, and enthusiasm.

We look forward to many more active and collaborative learning experiences!

 

A SUCCESSFULL DEBUT IN REGIONAL ATHLETICS COMPETITION

 We are proud to share that our selected athletics students have taken part, (for the very first time), in a regional championship in the Community of Madrid, achieving excellent results and representing the school with great enthusiasm and sportsmanship.

Throughout the first term in Physical Education, we have been working on relay techniques, jumping, and endurance running. These sessions have focused not only on improving physical performance, but also on teamwork, perseverance, and confidence, values that were clearly reflected during the competition.

Participating in an event of this level has been a fantastic experience for our students. They showed commitment, respect for their peers and competitors, and a true passion for sport. Beyond the results, which were outstanding, the most important achievement has been their personal growth and the opportunity to put classroom learning into practice in a real sporting environment.

Congratulations to all participants for their effort, attitude, and dedication.

We look forward to many more experiences like this!
