Balloon release

On 26th May, French and Catalans pupils released some balloons together in Oust-Marest.

5 balloons were found and send back to our school, 3 of them arrived in Belgium ( one was 204km away !), one of them was found by a british family visiting Thiepval memorial, so it finally came back from England.

This was really an European balloon release !

Visita a Món Sant Benet

El dimarts dia 19, els alumnes de 6é de l'escola Rnx i els alumnes francesos de l'escola d'Oust-Marest vam anar a Món Sant Benet. Allà, ens vam dividir en tres grups, i en acabat, vam començar la visita. Constava de dos parts: un taller de cuina, (forment i almadroc), i una visita al monestir de Sant Benet. Al taller vam fer dues receptes, i al monestir vam fer diverses coses: primer vam veure un vídeo i una projecció explicant-nos coses sobre el monestir i es monjos que hi vivien. La visita va ser en francès, tot i això, el Toni ens anava traduint “algunes” coses importants. La visita ens va semblar molt interessant.
