FATHER'S DAY ACTIVITIES AT ST GEORGE'S COLLEGE

Father is one of the most beautiful words and one of the first we learn, the one we claim when we are in danger. Nobody knows us as he does, nobody takes care of us as he does. Nobody is stronger or good than they are. These are not my words: they are what my Tigers wrote on the bookmarks and cards they prepared for their fathers. I was amazed with the lovely handmade pottery, the results were beyond my own expectations. However, Tigers did much more because all the groups presented awesome board displays helped by their teacher.

"Little Tigers working hard to finish on time"

"I always enjoy giving support to my dear Tigers"

"Maria Fe and Lia, they are very happy, they want to do their best".

"Erick, Sofía and Diego, a great team".

 "Mateo, Salvatore, Rodrigo and Erick"

Father's day is a great festivity. However I think it shouldn't be just one day but 365 days a year that we celebrate the most special person in our lives. So, happy Father's day, today and always.

DIAMOND JUBILEE:

What a great celebration!

 

Elizabeth II became Queen of England at the age of 25 in 1952, and during her six decades on the throne she has witnessed a period in modern history in which has seen enormous social, political and technological change.

THE QUEEN'S DIAMOND JUBILEE

 

The Queen celebrates 60 years as Monarch in 2012! The Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II is a multinational celebration throughout 2012 marking the 60th anniversary of the accession of Queen Elizabeth II to the throne. 

A lot of events were coordinated at Buckingham Palace for the Diamond Jubilee central weekend (2nd - 5th June 2012) in England. 

This important event was also celebrated at  St. George`s College,  with little British flags  outside and inside the classrooms, boards with photographs of Queen Elizabeth and her coronation, compositions and quizzes solved by students showing how much they knew about the queen and this event.

My little Tigers did a great job and they decorated their classroom with great enthusiasm. 

  Paula Lizarraga, Viviana Vicente, Iñaki Visbal and Lia  Castañeda. What a great team! 

Some of my little Tigers. They are proud of their great job!

FIRST ASSEMBLY - SECOND TERM

On May 21st my Little Tigers guided the assembly. They had the opportunity to share their knowledge in English in front of the rest of the students, they read important information, and they talked about “Childhood education day”.

Childhood education day was celebrated on May 25^th, and early year pupils marched, sang, and said cheers, they did a great job.

Viviana Vicente, Priscila Váquez, Sofía Wong and Paula Lizárraga, were very excited and they practiced really hard, they arrived early and wore the uniform in the correct way,  they felt comfortable and did their best. I am glad about it.

But they were not the only students who took part in the assembly that day, there were also José Arturo Rojas and Lia Castañeda who were in charge of the national flag.

Thanks my dear Tigers for all your effort, you always make me feel happy!

MOTHER'S DAY

There is something special about the way a mother will give unconditionally. Love, support, a home, the confidence to be yourself in the world. knowing there is always someone to return home to. Someone who will accept you for who you are and love you for all your faults.  It is only human to take this for granted. Therfore it is important for me to remind my precious tigers to cherish the angel that protects and guides them. Their mother.

Mother's Day is a celebration that honors mothers and expresses gratitude for the hardship they bear in bringing up a child. And so it is, on the second Sunday of May we come together to send a message of thanks to the one who ask for no thanks. We love you mother, and if we don't say it enough, we know you will forgive us. 

 

In the school the tigers show their love and gratitude to their mothers by dancing, singing and making cards which they took home with them.

 

 

 

Chacragranja

STUDY VISIT

 

The "Chacragranja" combines a beautiful botanical garden with the working farm and allows young people from all around Lima the oportunity to visit and enjoy a day feeding animals and getting to know about the plants.

This term my Tigers had the opportunity prowl the garden and hunt the animals.

The time in Chacragranja was great. The Tigers got to:

• plant some seeds,
• feed the animals
• handle some lobster,
• stroke some big spider,
• kiss some frogs,
• play with seaweed,
• decorate flower pots and, above all
• PLAY!

It was a day full of laugh to, new experiences and oportunities to learn for the Tigers. They really enjoyed this day!

                    Welcome Tigers,
                      I am very happy to be your homeroom teacher this year. Not only will I be your homeroom teacher but also your Maths teacher. We will not only learn together but have fun too. You know that school is like our second home, so  I will make it as cosy as possible.
                      You have a friend in me that you can trust, ask for help, and  whenever you need me I will be there to support you. The only thing I expect from you is for you to be  responsible and to have a good attitude to do your school activities.

love,
Miss Priscila
