50 years ago in Málaga...



This year we are celebrating the 50th anniversary of our building in Nuestra Señora de la Victoria. It would be interesting to remember what happened in Málaga at that time to have a complete view of the situation.

I propose you a task: find out what Málaga was like in the 60s.

You can ask your grandparents, go to a library, search in Internet, or talk to your teachers (specially to Mr Jiménez, he knows a lot about Málaga).

There are many subjects you can choose: economy, politics, education, family life, music, fashion, neighbourhoods...

That is, you can write about Francisco García Grana, mayor in 1960; the tram; Pepa Flores versus Marisol; or the Princess Ira Von Fürstenberg's first husband, Prince Alfonso of Hohenlohe-Langenburg and their house in Marbella...

Start working and talk to your teacher of English to publish it here.

Now that holidays are very close I invite you to read last year article in this blog on the topic Christmas.

Christmas is a time of joy and of overeating too. We eat lots of sweets and most of the time we forget about healthy habits.

A group of 2 º ESO students have asked their partners about their healthy habits . It may surprise you that half of the interviewed students , whatever their age, eat junk food (comida basura) twice a week. Or that only 50% of them practice any sport at all, talking about teenagers this number should be higher, don't you think so?
