Last Days at Grupo Cantico

I had my two last days of school with all of my English classes at Grupo Cantico on Tuesday May, 31 and Wednesday June, 1. I didn't really know what to expect and just planned on having a reflective conversation hour on the school year and plans for the summer with a final good-bye. It turned out that all of my English classes, 2nd, 3rd and 4th year had planned a little surprise for me. The first class with third year was actually a surprise but I soon caught on by the second one.

We all gathered in the gym where each class had some food and drinks and presented me with their own little gift. A few of the classes presented me with a T-shirt they had made for me saying We Love Melissa with all of their names signed. One of the other classes had put together a gift bag for me with an assortment of jewelry. The director of the school also presented me with a pin of an angel which is the symbol of Grupo Cantico. A few of the classes had Sevilliana music playing, which is the typical Music from Andalusia and they insisted on teaching me Sevilliana which is the dance that goes along with the music. I was a little hesitant at first but I soon got right into it.

It was such a perfect ending to my time at Grupo Cantico and my two years as a Language and Culture Assistant. It was great to spend more time with the students and have some last good byes with them.
