Another very hot day spent in the school, saying goodbye to all our friends we have made. We have just enjoyed a fantastic banquet of food provided by some of the host parents. All of us have happily tucked in and enjoyed the spanish snacks, the empanadas were very nice! We now have a short interval before our lunch.

Lucy is enjoying a very special and spanish birthday in Madrid. All the children sung happy birthday and Lucy even got to blow the candle out... did she make a wish???

Last night we went to a park with a big lake and had a picnic with everyone on the exchange.  It was very warm and we had lots of fun. Once the football went into the lake and being the hero she is, she jumped into the lake and saved the ball. We ate some hotdogs and burgers which where delicous.

Metro Madness!

How many RWPA can you get on a metro before the doors shut? Luckily all of them, even Roger the sheep joined us. Today we took in the beautiful sights of old Madrid, although shopping was high on the agenda!




Shop ´til you drop!

Wow, what an exciting final full day in Madrid. The children wandered into Madrid and had photographs taken by the Royal Palace before heading to Plaza Mayor to do some shopping. All sorts of wonderful things have been purchased but we will wait for them to show them to you... an advance warning... you might be able to hear us coming along the M62. Biscuits were purchased by Mrs Lobb and Mrs Williamson, so provided we´re not peckish tonight we may be sharing them in RWPA

Feliz fin de semana- Happy weekend!

We are all so proud of our children who have been amazing this week and have been a credit to RWS and Haxby Road. They are trying hard to make the most of their experience in Madrid and know that the families have planned some exciting weekend events. 

Please feel free to add any comments to the blog and we will add more on Monday. 

Well protected!


Harry listened well to our guidance and applied his suncream!
All of the children are doing a fantastic job protecting themselves from the sun, they are drinking lots, applying plenty of suncream and wearing a hat. I think we have all managed to find the shady places on the playground.

Class visits.

















RWS new apprentices!


Our boys took the opportunity to teach a class and did a great job, they were very confident and helped to make the lesson interactive and fun. We reckon Mr Ludlow would have graded it as Outstanding. They were playing a Spanish version of Hangman.
Hi from Madrid this is Tilly and Emmie .We are having so much fun. We have met loads of new friends and have had a basketball match English vs Spanish we scored lots of goals .
