Hockey, whether played on ice or on a field, is a sport that offers a total-body workout that includes both aerobic and anaerobic elements. The fast-paced nature of the sport provides aerobic exercise, while the reliance on all of the body’s major muscle groups also makes it an anaerobic activity. The result is a number of health benefits to the body, both physically and mentally. But with benefits come risks. Hockey is no exception, and safety should always be a priority when practicing the sport so that health benefits are not negated.

5 th grade students have been working on a project  which was related with their grandparents. We have been learning the past simple tense and the project was perfect to work on the content. Moreover, it was a fantastic opportunity to share stories, and experiences with their relatives and to travel back in time. Students not only had  the opportunity to know more about their grandparents’ life and past times but also to compare them with the life they have nowadays. Most of them said that life was good then but it is easier now. We conclude that times change and each time is special if you know how to enjoy it. So… times change but they are not better, nor worse. Here you have a piece of their projects. GOOD JOB STUDENTS!!

Students have confessed that they feel really happy and strong practising sport!
