1. Visiting Estonia1. Visiting Estonia“I’m going to talk about the school we were in

Estonia:

That school is placed in a village about 70km away from Tallin (the capital of Estonia) called Tapa. It’s

name is Tapa Gümnaasium.”

“I really liked been there. The school is

very big. They have really cool

things and places, like the sofas, the

gym… My favourite place is the

students cafe. There we met, talked

and played everyday. Tapa

Gümnaasium is more welcoming

than our school, I think. I hope you

like it”.Carlos Álvarez Moro
