Work in Progress-Art Course in Melilla

Friday afternoon training course in Melilla.
As well as the usual 35 hour week teaching in school,  teachers in Melilla worked an extra 30 hours in their free time on a very intensive training course on Bililingualism and CLIL.  This is the last part ( ten hours) on Art, Story-telling and Projects in English and the effort, interest and dedication of the teachers is truly amazing. Both Borja and myself would like to say a big thank you to all of the teachers for their hard work and enthusiasm and to Ana, the course coordinator of the CPR for inviting us to deliver these training sessions in Melilla.
