Pledge to the National Flag
On June 19th we had a ceremony, conducted by Director Ernesto Egaña, celebrating the birth of our national hero, José Gervasio Artigas. 1st grade students pledged allegiance to the National Flag.
They participated in an activity organized by History Prof. Florencia Caggiani, expressing the significance of Artigas for different members of the institution.
CHINA!
We were honoured by the visit of the Cultural Attaché of the Embassy of China, Tang Xiaoqin, who talked to 1st and 2nd grade students about her country.
We are very thankful for her disposition and the books she donated for our library!
Socialab – Solutions for the future
Socialab offered to carry out a workshop with our 2nd grade students.
The initiative’s goal is to promote the use of technology in educational projects which seek to improve the quality of life of the community. This project was carried out in Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay simultaneously. The experience was very interesting. Thanks!
“Bad Words”
Within the Cultural Interaction Programme (PAC) and cultural entertainers, we invited students and families to see the play “Bad Words” at the Liceo. The Cultural Entertainers were in charge of organizing the event.
Actress Laura Bouzas played the main character, Flor. In a monologue,
she untangles her story in front of the audience. Flor takes us to the world of her childhood making the characters, games, conflicts, hopes and dreams that
lived in it come to life.
“Bad Words” addresses the subject of adoption and the fear of facing its disclosure. Done in a sensitive manner but not solemnly, the play goes from laughter to sadness, fear, rage and happiness. Its script highlights the value of words, giving way to questions which might not get answers.
It was a very interesting experience. Thanks all for participating!
