Back to school

Easter holidays are over and we are all back at school.



It's hard to get up early and carry the (so!) heavy school bag again but what about meeting friends? Weren't you looking forward to meeting them again?



And ... good news for the good students. DGA has published this year's grants to spend a few weeks in UK, Ireland (3º and 4º ESO) and Canada (Bto); your English teacher has also the information and will be glad to help you apply.
Those students in 1º and 2º ESO can send applications for the "Mar de Aragón" summer camp grants until 13 April.
