Christmas are coming close and in Cardinal Newman we want to celebrate it in a very different way. The Modern Languages department, alongside with the unvaluable help from other departments such as Art and Sciences among others, have prepared a Christmas celebration following the Mexican tradition. According to it, there will be two differentiated parts: a religious and a non-religious one. That way the Cardinal Newman pupils will be able to see how people from other cultures live and celebrate something as familiar to them as Christmas.

In the the religious part, we will show respect to the Saint Patron of the Americas, the Virgin of Guadalupe, as well as to Jesus Crist’s birth on Earth.

After that, the non-religious part will be an opportunity to enjoy Christmas in a Mexican fashion, with music and dancing and some other surprises.

All S3 pupils, specially, are going to enjoy from this celebration, either in amore active way – helping in the preparation and development of the fiesta – or as the audience of such an enriching experience. We hope all of our students involved enjoy this Mexican Christmas Fiesta and learn very much from it.
