“We have 5 subjects in total, this one with Paz is called “Business Simulator” that’s to say we simulate that we have a business so in pairs we invent a virtual company and we organize everything we need, for example: money, staff, marketing, presentations, offers, catalogues.etc... And Marga the English teacher helps a little bit with documents and tips like the invoices, catalogues, the presentation of the business, as we don’t have any English subject in this course which is not very logical to get into the competitive world of Business”

ARSENAL EMIRATES FOOTBALL CLUB !!!!

THIS IS THE LETTER DIRECTLY FROM THE COACH TO MARGA WHO IS AN HONORIFIC MEMBER OF THE CLUB JOEL ON THE RIGHT ROAD

Joel Campbell’s Arsenal career has blossomed this season. The Costa Rican took his chance to make an impact in Arsène Wenger’s team by scoring on his first league start against Swansea back in October and subsequently adding two more well taken goals, both against Sunderland, as well as delighting the Emirates faithful with his all action performances on the right wing, where he combines tremendous work rate with eyecatching skills on the ball. But when asked for his favourite performance of the season recently, Joel selected a game in which he provided a superb assist for Olivier Giroud to score the second goal of a memorable hat-trick.

LIFE HAS CHANGED AT SCHOOL RECENTLY....

YEAH..... Thanks to three Dutch teachers who have come for the whole week, for 'Job Shadowing' on an Erasmus+

FON was the coordinator and a History teacher. It was his second time in Zaragoza.
Manon was a Maths teacher. She had already been in Spain four times.
Randy was only 22, an Economy teacher at Secondary Education. He had been to Barcelona

They wanted to learn about our EducaTion system so they entered as many classes as possible, including, Electronics, Mechanics and Business, they enjoyed a lot with the Biology experiment to discover your own DNA chain of cells, and also the P.E. where they could dance salsa, bachiata, cha cha, and the final pasodoble.

We have also organized a student exchange in the third term. We will go on the third term, on the 15th of April: 13 students with the teachers Ines and Manolo,  and they will come in May.

VIRTUAL BUSINESS SCHOOL TRADE FAIR....

Yesterday, the 11th of February, 2016, 8 students from ADM II participated with their teachers Lola and Antonio in the Virtual Business School Trade Fair ( Feria de empresa simulada en la escuela ).

It was very interesting for all of us. There were about 15 different schools participating. We had a stand to sell our products (safe and minibars).

We sold about 10.000 euro but we bought too many things, worth about 17.000 euro which was not too good for our business.

Here is a nice photo of us: Rocio, Lourdes, Melissa and Nerea ( ADM II)
