ENGLISH PROJECT: LONDON, 25th and 26th June

INTRODUCTION

This year our IES is one hundred years old (1908-2008). We are very happy about it. Our school has changed a lot throughout the century and education as well. The English Department wanted to join this celebration choosing as the topic of the Orator project the centenary. The idea was to do a trip along the century. And we really did it!
If we are given the grant, Huddersfield is going to be our destination, where we hope to widen our knowledge and probably see other different ways to understand education. This blog will be a witness of what we did and what we will do once there. We invite you to share our experiences here and there. Follow us!

LONDON, 25th and 26th June

Dear diary,

On Wednesday we caught the bus to London. The trip was long, it took 6 hours, but we had a stop to relax and have lunch. When we arrived in London we went to the Science Museum where we could play with a lot of good and interesting games about science and then we visited the plasticity museum, it was so funny. After that we went to The Pizza Hut and we had dinner. The food was really good and we enjoyed it a lot. Later, we went for a walk through London and we visited the London eye. We liked it because there were a lot of lights and it was very nice. At night we went to the Youth Hostel not to sleep but at one the fire alarm rang and all the 800 people in the building had to go out to the street.

On Thursday we started the day having a horrible breakfast in the hostel. Then we caught the bus again to visit some of beautiful places in London. We visited the Tower bridge, the houses of Parlament, the Buckingham Palace. Then we had lunch at Hyde park and returned to Huddersfield. When we arrived in Huddersfield we went to an Indian Restaurant for the farewell dinner. The food was very spicy. At the end of the day all of us were very tired and our families come to pick ¡us up to our houses. Our first trip to London has been a good experience because it’s a very nice place.
