Report on the

COMENIUS Visit to Leighton Buzzard

When I first knew I was going to London, I was not as excited about England as I was

when I had to come back to Portugal.

London itself is a beautiful city, where we can take nice pictures and walk through

magnificent gardens. The first day in Leighton Buzzard was a little bit embarrassing,

because I didn’t understand the British accent so easily so I had to ask people to repeat

everything. Despite that fact, Leighton Buzzard School was great!

Unlike Portugal, there are (often) 2 teachers for each subject and I found it very useful.

The School itself has got appropriate rooms for each subject and I think it’s

fundamental. When I started to get used to it I didn´t want to leave!!!

How fantastic was that? Well, I met Italian, Swedish, Hungarian, Spanish and Turkish

guys and I made a lot of friends – I’ve even added them in Facebook!

I improved my English skills as well as my pronunciation, and now I speak properly.

Those were phenomenal days because I went to a rugby match, a football match, I

even played football with them, I made kites and these activities made the time go

faster. I wish all the best for my new friends and I hope to come back to Leighton

Buzzard soon!
