THE WISE RAT......

HELLO... AGAIN....



Last summer, I was in the garden of my house when the grass started moving. I approached to find out what was provoking the movement of the grass. Then, as I was coming near the tree, I saw there was a hole in the tree. I took a stick to check how deep the hole was and I saw a rat which was blocked in the hole unable to move and asking for help. I was shocked but tried to free it, pulling her disgusting tail. She thanked me and said to me (as she could talk) that I shouldn’t eat too much cheese I would finish like her, father and fatter. In short, don’t abuse of anything even if you like it a lot

STUDENT EXCHANGE WITH THE NETHERLANDS...

Or students are sending photos from The Netherlands. 

They travelled to Gulpen which is a nice town neqar Maastrich. 

They are having a lovely time...



NICE TO SEE ZINEB AGAIN......


An ex-pupil of mine Zineb Zeyad has just come to school to say 'hello'.

She is studying Journalism in Paris at the moment and she is very happy living there.

She can speak French, Arab, Spanish, English and some Italian so I think she can be a very good 'freelance' when she gets her degree.

She loves singing and she has promised to come one day and ring at RECREARTE.

HER FAVOURITE SONG IS 'AT LAST' by ETA JAMES.
