LLEGADA A ORLANDO

Hi everyone!!!
Ya estamos en Florida. Los vuelos fueron muy bien. Los chicos y las chicas ya están con las familias. Pronto empezaremos las actividades.

Saber idiomas es abrir fronteras…

Un cordial saludo desde los diferentes “blogs” de nuestros Cursos de Idiomas, cuya finalidad es la de ser puentes de relación y comunicación con todos los padres, madres, familiares y amigos de cada uno de nuestros

estudiantes.

Deseamos, que mediante los mismos, todos nos sintamos suficientemente informados de las diferentes actividades y de la marcha general de cada uno de los grupos. Ello contribuirá a la tranquilidad y confianza de saber que vuestros hijos e hijas aprovechan y cumplen los objetivos que nuestra Organización se ha propuesto realizar: divertirnos aprendiendo y madurar como personas. De esta manera contribuimos a hacer realidad que el “saber idiomas es abrir fronteras”.

UN IDIOMA, UN PAÍS, UNA ILUSIÓN... ¡HASTA SIEMPRE!

Un año más cerramos nuestros cursos de Idiomas, con la confianza que todos nuestros estudiantes hayan alcanzado los objectivos que nos habíamos marcado.

Quiero pues, agradecer desde aquí, en primer lugar, todo el trabajo llevado a cabo por los directores de grupo y los monitores responsables de cada uno de ellos. Asimismo, agradezo a los padres la confianza que habéis tenido con Idiomas Padre Manyanet.

Con el deseo de que todos terminemos de pasar un feliz verano en familia, que San Jose Manyanet bendiga cada uno de vuestros hogares y hasta siempre.

Thursday 21st

Today at school we saw a really funny movie but we didn't go to the computer's room. Then, we had some lunch at the College and waited in the games room to go to the pool because it was very sunny and the last day that we went, a lot of people were burned. So when we arrived to the Winter Haven's pool we put some suncream and we went quickly to diving off the trampoline, after that, we went to play some volleyball too.
So it was a great day.

Sun'n Fun Museum

Yesterday, we continue with the classes in the morning. Then we went to eat to Golden Corral in Lakeland. In the afternoon we went to the airplanes museum Sun’n Fun. There were very funny airplanes and it was a good visit.

The museum had racing planes, aircraft, engines, fighter jets and more. We also saw the wing structure of a plane and some wooden models. Our guide, Joyce, told us many stories and showed us a map given to Howard Hughes (The Aviator) by Katherine Hepburn for his accomplishment of his around the world flight. ThThen we leave the building to head to another where there was some warplanes struck us. The best airplanes for me were these airplanes.

Today, we all had fun, and did lots of interesting things.

In the very begining of the day, my host family took me to the College. During the lessons we played word-games, and, after the break we played some games of English on the computers.
Afterwards, we went to the game room to play Kinect, Xbox, playstation and tennis table.

We had lunch at Pizza Hut while we were there, we met a priest, Father Charles. After all this, we went back to the College, to the Health Center (Gym), to play basketball, I didn't play but my brother did it. Instead I talked to Mónica. At the end we all went back to our host families.

Pool Party at Hewett's house

Yesterday we had a pool party at Mr Hewett's house. The party started at 4 o'clock. There were lots of things in that house such as: table tennis, billiards, basketball and more things. The first thing we did was play table tennis, billiards and shoot some basketballs. Later when we were sweating we went to the swimming pool to have a bath. At 5 o'clock we started eating all kind of food but specially pizza made by Max (Mr Hewett's son). After all this it came the best part going with the jetsky with Max on the lake. Later we took a boat because Oscar wanted to do wakeboard, he did it quite well. At around 8 o'clock we went to our "respective" houses because next day we had to wake up early to come to College.
