Comenius RFTA team are spending a lovely time in a beautiful village of Arriaolos in Portugal. We all arrived here yesterday. We have tried various kinds of food, seen picturesque landscape, listened to Portuguese folk music and learnt to dance some Portuguese dances.


Boys from Slovenia (Martin and Leonardo) took a cycling trip with Rui (Portuguese IT teacher) and Marko (Slovene PE teacher). They liked the trip a lot. They saw the marvellous corker trees, rabbits and other animals.  But obviously the trip wasn't too demanding because they had the time to think about how to trick their teacher... (Ask your teachers, they'll explain it to you.)

Here's the photo of the enthusiastic cyclers.

England - Heaton Avenue - Our Swimming Gala

The swimming gala

We all had to line up to get ready to swim. Emma’s race was first she did breaststroke and she came 2^nd.

Then it was Jennifer’s race and she did backstroke and she

Came 3^rd. After that Darcie did her race and she did front crawl and came 4^th.  Some of us got medals and some did

not but that was ok. The good thing is that we competed

and had a good time. Then we did a relay, Jennifer was in

the relay and she did backstroke. After that there was a final relay and Jennifer came 5^th and got a medal. At the end the boys were the fastest so they got the trophy. Jennifer got 2 medals and Emma and Darcie got 1 medal. In the end we all had a good time. Then we all got ready to go home and our teachers were very pleased that we swam in the swimming gala.

The Royal Wedding 2011

In 2011 at Heaton Avenue School we had a Royal Wedding but it wasn’t a real

Wedding.  Natasha was Catherine, James was Prince William,

Louie was Prince Harry, William was Mr Middleton and Megan Foster was Queen Elizabeth. There was a wedding reception where we had lots of food. There was sandwiches and jam rolls. Louie told a joke about Mrs Hayes in his speech.   We enjoyed it lots.
