British week and trip to New Zealand

This week at my School we are celebrating the British week. The English department is incharge of all the activities, and as we are at one week from vacations we can assist, not as other years. The teachers did a great job with the activities and organization, and they tried to do as many typical stuff as they could, the most amazing one was the cheese roll race! Though it wasn't as the real one, of course, but there was a race with obstacles in which you had to carry the cheese. There were also activities about Sr. William Shakespeare in the movie Anonymous, Trips to Valparaíso, to the roots of the School and many other entertaining things to do. I participate in the public speaking, which was a speech based in the quote "The End justifies the Means", focused on any topic you want, I didnt get a price, just a diploma (keep trying and thank you for participating), though I practiced my English and I think the next year I'll assist again.

Also this week 9 of my classmates went into a trip to New Zealand, by our School indeed, they are staying three weeks and they are being hosted by students of another School there in NZ. I hope they bring a gift. Good Luck!
