Febrero se va y llega el C A R N A V A L

Singing and dancing

Este mes de febrero se va; hemos tenido muchas actividades; algunas con escaso resultado como la visita al circo, y otras muy buenas como la de música junto a los chavales de infantil 5 años y la visita al teatro (en inglés) a Colmenar Viejo.

A fake visit to the circus.

The play as seen by our students

February is almost gone and we have had a lot of activities. The one of the circus caused dejection due to the lack of spirit of its people in charge, but we enjoyed very much the musical one with the Early Years 5 and the visit to Colmenar Viejo to attend the play 'Goldilocks and The Three Bears'.


Además, tenemos encima el carnaval. Según las informaciones que se han facilitado, el martes 4 de marzo haremos un desfile por El Molar, por las calles por las que nos autoriza la policía municipal, claro.


And, for an end, Carnival is coming!. According to officials, we will parade on Tuesday March the 4th along selected streets in El Molar.


Esperando que haga buen tiempo, os dejamos instrucciones y referencias para confeccionar los disfraces de "Los Caballeros y Damas de Corte" del siglo XVI. Para cualquier duda, no duden en contactarnos.

We hope the weather will be fine. Meanwhile, find herewith instructions about how to make the gentleman and ladies costumes according to the 16th Century fashion. Contact us for any further information you may need.

An intense week

The second week of February started with a snowfall; nothing serious if we compare it with those of the East Coast of the US or even with the thick layer in the Guadarrama range, but enough for us to enjoy a little bit:

Teachers pose with their creation

Snowball battle

Drying time

Our snowman

Then, on Friday 14th, Sebas delighted us during our Arts & Crafts class with a show about decoration on fruits and vegetables; have a look:

Is this Nemo or his father?

What's this...?

Sebas starts another one...

Meanwhile, a Chinese Dragon visited us coming from Early Years education building. A strong smell of powder warned us that something strange was going to happen...

and in Valetine's Day, red roses out of strawberries.

We had wonderful days. Enjoy the pictures!
