00:00:13,230 --> 00:00:19,890
Santa Barbara High School is located in the center of Madrid, in a neighborhood we call Las Estorias.

2
00:00:20,510 --> 00:00:25,269
It's just a short walk away from the Royal Palace, Plaza Mayor and Plaza Sol.

3
00:00:26,670 --> 00:00:34,079
Our school is located in Plaza de Baja, the Strobe Plaza, in a real-life palace,

4
00:00:34,359 --> 00:00:40,359
originally owned by the Vargas family in the 16th century, who acted as advisors to King Carlos V.

5
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:45,560
It's now filled with princes and princesses in their own right us.

6
00:00:45,820 --> 00:00:59,130
This is the gym, where we do a lot of our sports activities, and I mean a lot.

7
00:00:59,130 --> 00:01:20,239
Here is the science lab, where we can do some hands on science exploration and experiment.

8
00:01:20,239 --> 00:01:24,239
Space computer scientist for the school.

9
00:01:24,239 --> 00:01:42,780
Our workshop is one of my favorite rooms.

10
00:01:42,780 --> 00:01:52,780
Here we develop the creative side of our mines and I'm very delighted to see what is very beautiful and full of colour.

11
00:01:52,780 --> 00:02:03,780
Hi, here's another workshop where you get a remote technical developing projects specifically related with technology.

12
00:02:03,780 --> 00:02:12,789
It's also one of the only places in the school where we work while standing up.

13
00:02:12,789 --> 00:02:17,000
This is the welcome room.

14
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:31,080
This is our welcome room. This is where some of our international friends and classmates that have a bit more difficulty with the Spanish language find some extra help and community.

15
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:40,080
There are several resources in the school. For example, one for social studies, language and mathematics.

16
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:49,080
Here you'll find reference materials, maps and other things from class, dictionaries, CDs, CDs and more.

17
00:02:50,080 --> 00:03:00,169
In our computer labs we can really immerse ourselves in new technologies.

18
00:03:11,219 --> 00:03:15,219
This is the school playground where you'll find wedding and reference material.

19
00:03:16,219 --> 00:03:19,219
Everything is here, all we have to do is ask.

20
00:03:19,219 --> 00:03:34,300
And not only that, every one of our classrooms has a mini-library where you can always find

21
00:03:34,300 --> 00:03:36,300
what you are looking for.

22
00:03:36,300 --> 00:03:43,259
This year, we at Santa Barbara have undertaken an exciting new bilingual venture with the

23
00:03:43,259 --> 00:03:45,259
addition of a new conversation assistant.

24
00:03:45,259 --> 00:03:48,259
This has been a very fun, very exciting project.

25
00:03:48,259 --> 00:03:53,259
We're not just teaching the language and practicing the language, but giving the students

26
00:03:53,259 --> 00:03:57,340
a little bit of hunger and a little bit more interest in the culture so that they have

27
00:03:57,340 --> 00:04:04,300
a more of a fun excuse to use the language and some fun activities to use it's been a lot of fun
