Hello, welcome to Valderrey Primary School. My name is Pilar Acosta. I am the bilingual coordinator in the school and I am also an English teacher, one of the English teachers.

2
00:00:20,769 --> 00:00:29,190
I would like to tell you just a little about our school. First of all, I have to tell you that our bilingual program started in 2005.

3
00:00:29,190 --> 00:00:36,189
We have been working very hard since that moment, but now we are really proud of our students.

4
00:00:36,189 --> 00:00:43,189
We have to keep in mind that some of them are now at the university and their English level has helped them a lot.

5
00:00:43,189 --> 00:00:49,189
As a bilingual school, we have also the opportunity to work with language assistants.

6
00:00:49,189 --> 00:00:56,189
This year we have been working with a girl from the USA and with a boy from the Philippines.

7
00:00:56,189 --> 00:01:06,189
Language assistants are really helpful because we are offering our students the opportunity to improve their English with native speakers.

8
00:01:06,189 --> 00:01:11,189
As a bilingual school, we have also the chance to work with a twin school.

9
00:01:11,189 --> 00:01:18,189
Our twin school this year is in Geoville, in Somerset County in England,

10
00:01:18,189 --> 00:01:22,189
and we are offering our students the opportunity to improve their knowledge,

11
00:01:22,189 --> 00:01:29,590
knowledge, not only about speaking English, but also about English culture. So, if at

12
00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:35,530
the end you decide your kids study at Valderrey School, you are not going to regret at any

13
00:01:35,530 --> 00:01:37,170
moment. Welcome everyone.
