Hi folks!

We arleady know the winners of the first mini-saga competition. The members of the English Department would like to thank you all the participants because it was a pleasure to read your contributions and we hope more people will take part in the future. 

Xiana Villaverde (3º A) came first with:

"Isle of Flightless birds" by Twenty-one pilots

She was intelligent, bold and full of life. But she needed ambition and her desire to feel complete wasn’t fulfilled. Fear was her enemy, it broke her wings and glued her to the ground.After a lifetime of watching nightingales fly, she fluttered from the isle of flightless birds. 

Guillermo González (4º) came second place with:

"Shape of you" by Ed Sheeran

I was amazed. She was prettier than what I had expected. I had in mind a small young woman with short wavy hair, but she was completely different. She had stunning straight hair that reached her elbows.  Finally, after weeks of work, my painting was finished.

Eduardo García-Santamarina (4º ESO) came third place with:

"Run Boy Run" by Woodkid

I am in utter darkness. I don’t know where. I see a little dot. It’s light. I can see it. I don’t know why but I must head there. I use all my might. It’s closer. I can’t stand it anymore, one last effort please. Madam, It’s a boy. Congratulations!

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF THEM!!! AND KEEP WRITING!!
