Video profiles

The last two days in the Arab Institute have seen the students write information about themselves, their likes and dislikes, their favourite subject in school and a bit about how the Israeli occupation affects them. Then we filmed them in the library (where we have English classes) and now hopefully you can watch them in Camden from dropbox!

Hello everyone!

Hello everyone my name is Eliot and as you may have guessed I go to Acland Burghley school. I'm just writing to say hello to everyone. The club has decided to collect a group of objects that we think represent Camden. We are going to send the objects to you so that you can get an idea of how our lives are like. We hope you like the objects when we send them to you. In answer to your question about what I would take to a desert island it would be a huge tank of water as water is the most important thing to keep you alive. From Eliot Edmonds year 8.

Hello from Acland Burghley

Hello to everyone at the Arab Institute. I am Mr Rob Stainsby and I am a teacher at Acland Burghley. I came to visit last April and had a lovely time. I am in charge of our 'Friends of Palestine' group and our students will be posting stuff on this blog very soon.

Yours, Rob
