CINECLUB: THE IMITATION GAME

Sometimes it's the people who no one imagines anything of, who do the things that no one can imagine.

 This is the  recurrent motto of THE IMITATION GAME, the third term film.  The movie is a  biopic based on the life of the Mathematics Cambridge Professor Allan Turing, the creator of artificial intelligence.  Turing  led  the British team that deciphered the secret codes used by the Nazi communication machine called Enigma during World War II.

The film achieved 8 Oscar nominations and got the Oscar to the best adapted screenplay . Benedict Cumberbatch's work was really praised by critics and he was nominated for best actor by both the Oscar awards and the Golden Globe awards.

Are you interested in computers?

CINECLUB: HIDDEN FIGURES

      

                 

                         

This term's film,Hidden Figures, tells the story of  three incredible African-American women: Katherine G. Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson, who worked as “human computers” at NASA in a time (the 60s) when to be a colored woman in USA was a difficult issue. Thanks to their intelligence and determination, these women got to cross all gender, race and professional lines and they continue being an inspiration for future generations.

An excellent film for a term in which we  commemorate the International Day of Women  in Science (Feburary 11th) and the International Women's Day ( March 8th)  

Here you can have a look at the film trailer:

BURLINGTON CULTURAL LESSONS

One more year our school could enjoy the cultural sessions organised by Burlington Books.

Our old friend Nick came to tell the students from 2nd ESO to 2nd Bachillerato lots of interesting facts about the English-speaking countries. The students of 4th ESO Bilingual group learnt about London, the students of 3rd ESO Bilingual group about Ireland and the students of 2nd ESO bilingual group about the English-speaking countries in general. 

Thanks to Nick and Burlington Books for these interesting sessions in which our students had the the opportunity to practise their English in a real, interactive and funny way.  Nick was even hilarious sometimes. We hope to see him next year and call ther mum in the Who Wants To Be a Millionaire contest!!
