Diabolos Around the School
Since classes started it seems as if a plague of “diabolos” had invaded our
school. Children between 4th primary and 4th year of E.S.O are playing with
these objects and achieving some incredible tricks.
It all started when some boys from the 4th year of E.S.O brought some of
them one day. Younger students saw them and now it has become a new
fashion in school. “It’s really incredible” says Marcos Areizaga, a 4th E.S.O
student.

To Belgium by bus
At the beginning of November, the
vast majority of the 4º year ESO

the pupils are going to go to Amberes.
46 students are going to take part on
this exchange.
“Amusing” said one of the pupils of 3º

This year some students form the forth year are playing
indoor football instead of the one we are used to. At
once they were going to make up a normal football
team, but as there weren’t enough people, they took
pot luck with the indoor football. That idea ended up
as being very attractive since two more teams made
up by girls from primary have signed up. “Firstly, we
weren’t very sure, but as we are having very good
results playing very well, we are really motivated”
said Eric, a player for the indoor football team.

school
Last year the 4th year ESO Spanish teacher wasn’t seen around school
because she had taken a sabbatical year for herself. Although being away
12 months, she didn’t leave Oiartzun, the city where she lives.
Instead of Pilar Goyoaga, Pilar Arsuaga gave the lessons. “It’s good to
have Pili back; she is a very laid back person. That’s what I like about her”

These statistics represent that we all like the genre of the comedy the most
because it makes us laugh. Most of us download
films illegally because we don’t have to pay for
the films. We sometimes prefer to watch films
at home and other times, we enjoy watching
films in the cinema. The majority of us, have as
our favourite film American Pie and other pre-
fer 300. Our favourite actress is Elsa Pataki,
not because of her work, because she is very
pretty. To conclude, we think that films in-
fluence our lives in some way. For example,
American history X has influenced our life.
Here there’s a great surprise: Most of us actually watch the news! So our
parent’s complaints about watching trash TV is just an exaggeration be-
cause most of us, more than half, watch the news at least sometimes. So
we are interested in what happens around the world, which is a sign that
we are not the anti-social group we are sometimes supposed to be.
Here we can see that our likes are most influential on each other regarding
the type of program we watch, and that advertisements only influence us
to a small degree which is a bit surprising.

The most popular style of song among teenagers is pop. But there is not much difference between
pop and rock which are separated by less than 3%. Hip-hop and techno are also pretty popular
among teenagers, but on the other hand, but punk isn’t popular at all.

These statistics clearly highlight that nearly everyone of us is used to using the internet not just for
working, but also to download music illegally. Downloading music illegally is something which is
against the law, but very typical nowadays. Half of us download music daily, a result which shows

out most is that they serve to show what students talk about rela-
ted to their teachers when they are not listening to their teachers.
