Hello Friends!

Our names are Micaela, Georgina and Erika. We are seventeen years old. We all live in a small town called San Francisco.
We are in fifth year at high school. As we are almost finishing, we are designing sweaters and t-shirts for our promotion. Then, we´re going to post some pics.
We were surprised when we saw your photo at school. You do not have to wear uniform! Here in Argentina, we do wear a uniform... Boring :)
At weekends, we usually like going for walks and have "mates" with our friends. On Saturday night, we always meet and have dinner together.
All of us have large families. As we live in the countryside our families are in charge of raising animals.

We would like to know more about you...
-What´s the tradition in your country / town when you finish high school?
-Have you got large families?
-How many students are there in your school?

Hope you letters! Keep in touch!!!
Your Argentinian friends...

Around Europe


      I`m so glad to write to you again, my dear friends from Argentina!
      As I know, you`ve just started your studying. I`m sure you have had a great rest. So, what can you tell us about your holidays?
      I have a lot of news for you. We have had spring holidays two weeks long. I spent the time travelling around Europe. I`ve visited so many countries, cities, famous historical and cultural centers, architectural and natural sights. For example, ruins of Pompeii in Napoli (Italy), Rome and residence of Pope in Vatican. I walked along the famous bridge in Luzern, Switzerland. But most of all I liked Germany, especially Baden-Baden, and Austria with its capital of Vienna. Both countries impressed me very much and brought unforgettable memories for the whole of my life.
       Well, I'm looking forward to your impressions about the holidays and I hope that you have had the same great time as I had. If you wish I can add some more pictures of my amazing journey.

Read our journal!


Hello, dear friends from Argentina!
We were very glad to receive your letters.
Actually, our vacation took place 2 weeks ago.  In the first half of the day we were studying our profile subjects at school. In the second part of the day everyone was doing what he or she wanted to.
We’d like to tell you about our amazing project. For 2 years we are issuing the journal  called «Polar Lights».  It consists of various topics about our occasions, travels  and so on. You can see it at the site of our school. Here is the e-address and the links, though, they are in Russian: 
then click Это интересно   
then Школьный журнал на английском языке "Polar Lights" (выпуск 2)
or  Школьный журнал на английском языке "Polar Lights" (выпуск 1)

In both issues we wrote about our project with your school. Now we are working on the third issue of the journal and are going to write about you. So we ask you to read the previous issues and send your responses to us.
Best wishes,
Reseda

Hi, Argentinean friends!
Thanks for your letter, we are very glad to your responses. We like your photos very much.
We would like to wish you a successful school year and a good preparation for the exams.
You wrote about the video conference. We think that this is a good idea. But we have a big difference in time. Though,we think that this is not a problem at all. When it is morning in your country it is evening here in our place. I think we could come to school in the evening to take part in such a conference.
Let`s discuss and do it!
We are looking forward to your reply!
Your friend Yana
