L'hora dels adeus

Tomorrow is the last day of this course. We will meet some of you the next September, but some other students have finished their studies here with us and they will start a new way in a new School. This post is especially dedicated to them.

Here, in Catalonia, we use to say goodbye with a traditional Irish song that we call L'hora dels adeus. The original is called Auld Lang Syne, and it is used to be sung during Christmas season. 

I would wish to sing this song in a day like this to wave goodbye our students of 4th ESO. 


Good luck, boys and girls!

2.011: International Year of Forests


The year has been declared the International Year of Forests by the United Nations to raise awareness and strengthen the sustainable forest management, conservation and sustainable development of all types of forests for the benefit of current and future generations.

Take a look at this video to try to understand the logo that is designed to convey the theme of “Forests for People” celebrating the central role of people in the sustainable management, conservation and sustainable development of our world’s forests. 


Forests provide shelter to people and habitat to biodiversity; are a source of food, medicine and clean water. All of these elements taken together say us that forests are vital to the survival and well being of people everywhere, all 7 billion of us.

Discover all of these elements in this other video:


The song that you are going to listen and see now is called Earth Song, and was written in 1995 by Michael Jackson. Unfortunately, the lyrics show many of the problems that our planet is still suffering nowadays. You can get the lyrics of this song at this link.
