Hi,
Now then, as Carmen said, you pass on from the van to a de luxe hotel.
I intend to congratulate Carmen on that 10 km race with her schoolmates. Presently in France high school students are rather walking the streets with slogans and streamers. They are demonstrating against the cutting out of a number of teachers posts in junior and high schools. Teachers and parents have joined the demonstrators. The law also aims at reorganizing a general baccalauréat (school leaving certificate) which would put an end to the present ones with a literary or scientific bias. It would also create a sole vocational baccalauréat, yet it seems the minister will reconsider the reform. Moreover some artistic disciplines such as plastic arts, dance, theatre, music, audiovisual techniques would no longer be taught in junior and high schools.
For the time being, high school students are on spring holiday but they intend to rally again as soon as the holiday finishes.
This is the news in Paris, the provincial high school students often join the Parisisan ones, they are all concerned.
You'll think again that French people keep marching the streets!
I wish you a nice week before your romantic weekend.
Love,
Marie
