To celebrate the coming of a new year, Spaniards traditionally eat twelve grapes on December 31st on the twelve strokes of midnight, while the bells chime in the clock tower of Puerta del Sol, so as to attract luck in the twelve coming months!
During the first school week, that is to say, a little bit late if you look at the calendar, pupils in Year 7 and Year 11 discovered this tradition and succeeded in eating all the grapes in due time…
Feliz aňo nuevo
