Today we are celebrating Grandparents' Day at Logos Nursery. We have invited the grandparents of our students to spend the day with us, we have celebrated a Eucharist, the students have made different representations, then the grandparents have passed through the classrooms, right now they are doing different workshops with their grandchildren, the most numerous, the making of donuts. And finally we will share a wonderful "cocido madrileño". All these activities will be enlivened by an old Organillo.
Last Friday, May 13th, we celebrated our "Grandparents Day" inviting our Grandparents to our "San Isidro's Celebration" at School: We all dressed in our traditional dress .... In Spanish if someone is described as "chulo" it's quite a derogatory term meaning that they're full of themselves. Madrileños are often described as "chulo" by people from other parts of Spain. The name of the traditional Madrileño costume is a "chulapo" which comes from the word "chulo". Around the school you could see organ grinders (barquilleros) in their San Isidro costumes selling traditional sweet snacks called "barquillos", workshops We have had too much fun preparing all the workshops for that day and we enjoyed a lot The Celebration.
