Our Belgian friends left in the morning. We miss you!! 

Farewell at the airport. We all got very emotional.

In the morning we worked on the history project: we watched part of the film Alatriste and did an activity on the connection of Spain and Belgium in the 16th century.

Then, we went to Sitges and we had a wonderful day. The weather was fantastic and our Belgian colleagues were just amazed!

Belgian students had the possibility to spend the day with their ‘Catalan families’.
