INEVERY CREA

The educational platform IneveryCREA has taken us into account in the first article that it has dedicated to creativity.

IneveryCREA is an educational community for teachers and professionals of education who create, develop and share educational original resources.

We must thank Carmen González the opportunity to appear in this platform, since she collaborates in the above mentioned site. Inside the platform, she is in charge of "C" of creativity.

You can visit this site and the article in which the choir appears in the following link. InveryCREA.

Besides, Carmen has also included the article in her blog "una tiza y tú" which is a site also related to education. Una tiza y tú.

Both in the platform and in her blog, Carmen writes about the project The Choir in the Classroom 2.0 and about the advances that are made.

All this is of great importance since it is going to allow the Choir to be known in different educational circles.

We repeat our gratefulness to Carmen for giving us the opportunity to appear in these two sites.

We won the first prize in the extraordinary category in the XIX Contest of Christmas Carols of Aragon, celebrated in Saragossa. We meet 16 groups and performed in a wonderful room of concerts as it is the Mozart Auditorium of the Aragonese capital. A day of intense effort and working together.

LOS BOSCOS CHOIR VISIT DEUSTO

At the end of last year the Boscos choir moved to the Salesian school of Deusto to perform a small concert for the students of the center. Teachers from both school were working together throughout the course to coordinate activities, and one of those activities was this concert.

We don´t want to forget to thank the teachers Ainhoa and Miriam for inviting us to their school and to devote so much time and effort so that everything could go well.

WEEKEND LANGUAGE IMMERSION

Last year the choir made its first weekend of linguistic immersion. During the two-day experience, we did many activities and workshops related to the music, but always using English as main language.

The activity took place at the Salesian school Santo Domingo Savio where children prepared a Batukada, a Hawaiian dance, a costumes workshop and the “He mele no lilo” song.

In addition, children enjoyed a master-class by Rosa Cedro and rock concert led by Daniel Urbina in which the guest stars made a journey along the history of rock and pop.

The teachers Begoña Mesonada, Veronica Rodriguez and Daniel Urbina made a great effort and put a lot of enthusiasm to ensure that the activity could be carried out.
