BIRMINGHAM VISIT

Today, we woke up later than usually and we had breakfast with our flat's mates and our leader in the kitchen. When we finished, we went to Perry Barr station to take the train to go to the centre of Birmingham.

Once arrived, we went in groups to the mass in Saint Chad's cathedral. After the mass, we were in the same groups to visit the most important monuments and buildings of Birmingham like the Town Hall, Symphony Hall, The Mailbox or the canals. In the Mailbox, we had the chance to record a video of the weather news in BBC. To have lunch each group went to a different McDonald's.

After that, we went to the Bullring. It is a really big shopping centre.There, we used some helium balloons to make funny voices and we took some photos. After, we started to go shopping around all the Bullring. There were a lot of brands and we bought a lot.

Then, we went back to the residence by train and immediately we had dinner. Now, we are writing the blog and in a few moments we will go to watch a film called "Iron man 3". After the film, we will do the penalties and medals and we will go to the kitchen.

We enjoyed a lot this day and we bought a lot of things for our family and ourselves.

TALENT SHOW DAY

Today, we had an English breakfast. It is the second day that we have it in the camp and it is nice because we have variety. After, we went to classes to continue with our lessons. In Stephen’s class we worked with the workbook and after the break, we played some games and prepared the presentation for the afternoon.

After lunch, we went to the theatre to explain per classes something that we did this week. Later, we had some free time while some leaders were preparing the room to have a good Talent Show

.

We went to the dining room and we Talent Show started with a dance. Then all of us acted and finally the leaders danced also to finish. There were more dances, a body lifting, BCU gossips, a Harlem Shake and some magic tricks. We enjoyed a lot this afternoon.

After that, we came back to the theatre to see a magic show by our leader Gonzalo. When he finished, Patricia sang the song called “Someone like you”. Before going dinner, we saw some videos of some past activities like singstar videos or the dance machine.

Now, we are writing the blog and then we will see some Disney short film. After the medals, we will go to our kitchens with the leaders and mates. We had a really good time and we are enjoying a lot the camp.
