Last day

It seemed to be very far away, but our last day in Dublin has arrived. They had a lot of good moments that they will always remember and the experiences they have lived here will be remembered too and I'm sure they have helped them to see life from a different perspective and they are now a little bit more open minded.
Apart from all the memories, they will go home with some new friends specially from Italy, Czech Republic and, Spain, although they have met over their stay here people from China, Turkey, Japan, Germany, or Russia, and the friendly Irish staff from ATC.
Good things come to an end, and this is all for this year.
See you next year!
P.S: although they don't think we had good weather in our stay, we actually had, the worst day was yesterday!

How much do you know about Dublin?

Yesterday it was our last full day in Dublin, and it is a tradition to end with a game to check how much they have learnt in these four weeks. The winner was Amaia who did more things in the time they had to take pictures and find out some information. Some of them got a little bit lost, but thankfully they found themselves, and although they didn't complete all the tasks they could recognize more things than they thought.  They all did a great job!

Belfast

Our last full day trip was on Saturday and it was to Belfast. The day was cold up there in the north of the island and in a two-hour trip we were in the UK.  First we had some free time to visit the surroundings of the city hall and in the afternoon we went to the Titanic museum. It's worth the visit, it's well organized and as the story it's familiar to them thanks to the film they enjoyed it.

Dundrum

On Friday came the Day that the girls we waiting for: we spent the afternoon in Dundrum, the big shopping centre!
After shopping some if them said that it was that big that they didn't go to some shops because they were tired of walking. They didn't buy a lot of things, but their hands weren't empty on the way back home.

Talent show

Thursday was a good day, not only because we had a trip, but also because in the evening there was a talent show where a lot of students took part. The group was going to sing a song, but finally they couldn't perform it in front of the others. People singing, dancing, playing instruments...there was a lot of talent!

Dalkey castle

On Thursday it was time to go to Dalkey Castle. Dalkey is a small village with a lot of History that we could learn thanks to the tour to its castle. It is a tour where people can partcipate because the actors make it really entertaining and ask questions to the visitors. Moreover that day it was sunny so we had a lovely afternoon!

Dublin castle

Yesterday we had the opportunity of visiting Dublin Castle. Located in the city centre is a very important place because all the history. Students didn't want to read the panels they had, but they listened to the explanations our activity leader gave us, so they could learn a bit.
