Hierbij ontvangt u de nieuwsbrief voor Tweetalig Onderwijs (TTO) en Fast Lane English (FLE). Met deze nieuwsbrief houden wij leerlingen, ouders en personeel op de hoogte van onderwerpen rondom TTO en FLE op onze school. 1. Terugblik Studiereis 6FLE In week 35, 24th 29th August Pius X 6 FLE went to London for the annual workweek. Here are a few extracts from their reports on this trip. Getting there Of all the ways to traval we used a coach, then the ferry followed by national rail services and the London Underground. During the week in London we received an Oyster card by which you could travel by bus or underground in central London. I liked this way of travelling a lot; the journey to and fro was very pleasant and the Oyster card was incredibly useful and gave us a lot of freedom to see London for ourselves in our spare time. 1

2 Accommodation The hostel in which we stayed was reasonable regarding the rooms, but breakfast there was delicious. I would not describe the accommodation as unpleasant, but the rooms/beds were not very comfortable. Also, some of us weren t able to stand upright under the shower. Highlights One of the highlights of the excursion was the musical performance of The Lion King. Not only were the music and the acting of high quality, it also left the group with a sense of nostalgia, which caused all of us to return to the hostel in a wonderful mood. Jack the Ripper tour: I had done this before, but I still had a lot of fun and the story was still interesting. The Museums On Wednesday we went to two museums for the presentations. I loved the British Museum. There were a lot of interesting things to see. I had hoped for more free time there, but unfortunately the presentations took a lot of time. Maybe next year there can be a better division between the presentations at the British Museum and those at the Science Museum. The presentations themselves were good. Mine worked out as I thought it would. It wasn t too noisy, so I could make myself understandable. Stamford Bridge tour The tour in the Chelsea Stadium was surprisingly interesting, even for those who are not football fanatics. It wasn t too long and the guide was charismatic and funny. The fact that students got involved in the tour and got to visit places of the stadium usually only seen by players or coaches created an exciting atmosphere. Conclusion All in all, I think the trip was really enjoyable and a big success. 2
