We celebrated “Magosto”, or the festival of chestnuts. It’s a traditional festival celebrated in the North of Spain every year. It is usually depicted with the figure of a castanyera: an old lady dressed in peasant's clothing. She is wearing a headscarf and sitting behind a table roasting chestnuts for a street sale.
The Spanish students enjoyed watching a video, reading poems and singing songs about the festival. They also made posters and decorated the school with their wonderful work.
