The legend explians that:
Some time ago, on 23rd of April of 303, Saint George beat a dragon to save a young girl, the king’s daughter. When the dragon was defeated, its blood became red roses, and Saint George took one for the princes.

Exchange Salvador Espriu-De Nassau
The 25th of March 23 dutch students come to Barcelona to do an exchange with our class. Because we were more people, some of us share 1 dutch student.
They arrive to Girona at 11.15h and they take a bus that leave them near the school.
In the days that they stay here we visit Montserrat, Park Güell, Glòries and Diagonal Mar but they visit also(without us) the golden square and the constructions of Gaudí in Passeig de Gràcia( la pedrera and casa batlló), they also visit the cathedral and Sagrada Familia.
They like a lot going shopping and they buy lots of things. We also go to bowling in Diagonal mar and to the beach in Port Olímpic.
They leave Barcelona the 1st of April, we met in the school at 7h and the leave with a bus to the airport of Girona.

A NewsItem about the exchange!
Hi!
Today I’ll write a NewsItem with Luana’s help:
A few weeks ago a class of the school “De Nassau” from Holland, came to Barcelona to do an exchange with us (student’s of 3r ESO). Most of them were one year older than us. Our teachers made an special timetable for the activites we had to do with them. There were a lot of activites like for example going to Montserrat, Park Güell…We also went to Glòries (almost every day), Diagonal Mar (at the weekend), Bowling (inside Diagonal Mar)…Of course, girls went shopping whenever they could. It was a good expierence, but this was just the beginning of the exchange…now we have to go to Breda (in Holland) to visit a lot of places and of course to practise and learn more English.

Description of Carnival
Hi!
Some days ago I made a slideshow about Carnival and now I'm going to explain it:
The video is about Carnival, as I said before. It appears some photos about teachers, students, judges, the king, the reporters...
The song of the video is one of Natashsa Bedingfield, "Soulmate".
This is my summarize about the slideshow I made some days ago. I hope you like it! :)
