Coronavirus

This year's school year has been quite fuzzy with other coronavirus courses. We started school in September 2019 and then we finished the school at home.
It was new for us, coming to IESO TOMÁS BRETÓN but we dealt with.
At mid March we were very excited because everything was new for us, teachers, classrooms, classmates. We didn´t believe what was going on.
During the cuarantine time I felt a bit bored the first days but then I was very happy because I got a dog. The days were very exciting because I didn´t stop every day. All days I was playing with my family.
The way I usually study changed because it isn´t the same to study and do things in class that at home. But I think I did well because I sent all homework.
Then we could go out with our friends but only in groups of 10. And then we returned to the normality.
I had a good time during the quarantine at home because I kept playing but I also felt all the situation that caused the disease.

Buskaid

Buskaid is a thriving Academy of String Teaching and Performance, situated in the heart of the South African Township of Soweto. Its primary mission is to give opportunities to impoverished and previously disadvantaged township children to learn classical (bowed) string instruments to the highest international standards. Buskaid also runs a highly successful string teacher-training programme, and nine of its eleven teachers are drawn from within its student membership. Its flagship Ensemble, which has gained international recognition, was voted one of the world’s most inspirational orchestras by the UK’s Gramophone magazine in 2008. Through its teaching and performance activities, Buskaid is able to offer employment opportunities in an environment where currently 75% of the 26% of unemployed South Africans are young, black, and living at subsistence levels. Buskaid’s presence in Soweto is a powerful tool for transformation in the local and wider township community.

Buskaid was founded in 1992 by British viola player Rosemary Nalden, in response to a BBC radio interview highlighting the difficulties of a group of young string players in Diepkloof, Soweto. Rosemary responded by organising a fundraising event, when 120 professional musicians ‘busked’ simultaneously in 16 British Rail stations across the UK.

In January 1997 when the original project had fallen into difficulties, Rosemary established the Buskaid Soweto String Project. Initially the fledgling music school, situated in a tiny run-down church office in Diepkloof, consisted of fifteen members from the original project and a handful of new beginners. Since then, in response to the huge demand by local children to learn a stringed instrument, it has grown exponentially, and currently comprises approximately 115 students ranging in age from five to thirty-five, all of whom are drawn from the less privileged local community. The Buskaid Soweto Academy of String Teaching and Performance is now situated in its own purpose-built school in the grounds of another church in Diepkloof. In the 20 years of its existence the organisation has grown from a modest social development project into an internationally recognised institution of high quality string teaching and performance.

MY RECIPE FROM IRELAND

BACON AND CABBAGE


Bacon and cabbage is considered one of the most popular traditional Irish dishes.
Bacon and cabbage has been found to be Ireland's most popular dinner, according to Ireland's food board Bord Bia.
The wholesome, hearty, and old-fashioned meal is most certainly close to the Irish people’s heart: Bord Bia found that 64 percent of Irish adults consider bacon and cabbage the meal most synonymous with Ireland, and that 30 percent of Irish people crave the dish while traveling abroad.

Ingredients:

• 1½kg loin of bacon
• 1 carrot
• 2 celery sticks
• 2 leeks
• 1 tsp peppercorns
• 1kg cabbage, finely sliced
• 1 tbsp butter

• 1 tbsp mustard
• 1 tbsp oven-dried breadcrumbs
• ½ tbsp brown sugar
• Knob of butter

Mustard Sauce:

• 50g butter
• 25g flour

Method:

Place the joint in a large saucepan.

Add chopped vegetables and peppercorns.

Cover with cold water.

Bring to the boil, then simmer gently for approximately 20 minutes per ½ kg.

Set oven to gas mark 6, 200ºC (400ºF).

Remove the joint from the saucepan.

Reserve liquid.

Remove the rind and score the fat.

Place the joint on a roasting dish.
