A  RADIO STATION TO LISTEN TO:  

It will help your English as well as your culture. If you want to know what's going on...

Madrid Live is the only English-language radio programme which focuses on the arts, entertainment and social scene in Madrid. Madrid Live is also the only medium in the capital to broadcast interviews with English-speaking celebrities in their original language without dubbing or subtitles. Hence it provides an essential service to tourists and to the 250,000 English-speaking residents, be they native English speakers or Spanish.

Produced and presented by British journalist Ann Bateson, Madrid Live is broadcast twice weekly on Radio Círculo, Spain's leading cultural radio station, which is located at the prestigious Círculo de Bellas Artes. The latest survey confirms Radio Círculo has over 130,000 regular listeners.

JANUARY 2014. NEW YEAR AT ALDEBARÁN.

WE RECOMMEND OUR STUDENTS TO ATTEND:

AMAZING DEBATE SESSIONS.

2º Bachiller A,B,C  Ampliación de Inglés have carried out  four days of Debates in the school Library.   The topics have ranged from euthanasia to illegal downloads, the danger of video

games, etc.   Congratulations to all them because both the research on the topic ( examples, studies...) and the presentations have been outstanding!

All the Bilingual Section ( 1ºa, 1ºb eso and 2ºc, 2ºd eso) groups have attended the sessions in turns. They have showed great interest, participated enthusiastically asking difficult and intelligent questions and have voted for the most convincing side. 

Perhaps the biggest surprise was the last day when they voted against illegal downloads from Internet. No doubt the great performance  and persuasive arguments of the students debating the topic had their effect.


Thanks everyone for the big effort and great performance!
