ST PATRICK´S DAY


As you all may know, on March 17th we are all celebrating the life and work of the most famous Paddy in the world, St. Patrick, the Apostle of Ireland. He is credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland and is most known for driving the snakes from the island.... because it is true indeed that there are no snakes in Ireland!!

If you are interested in learning more interesting facts about St Patrick´s festivals and traditions, have a look at Celebrating St. Patrick´s Day. You may find it funny to have a sort of a celebration tomorrow!!

THE APPRENTICE

My 2 intermediate students are learning a lot of new staff related to work and jobs. For them, here is a review of The Apprentice, a TV show from the BBC about ambitious entrepreneurs seeking to demonstrate their business sense. There’s a £250,000 investment at stake and the chance to go into a partnership with Lord Sugar.

Over the course of 12 tough tasks, the 16 candidates will be whittled down until just one victor remains.The eventual winner of The Apprentice will be given the opportunity to be Lord Sugar's business partner and receive an investment to the value of £250,000.

Don´t miss your chance to view some of the Apprentice´s most amazing moments on its official website!!
