Dear Reader, <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another week has passed at Ranum Efterskole College, and what a week! We had a great visit from Bilbao, as 10 Spanish students from the school CF Somorrostro met their new friends from the elective 10+ Spanish for the first time. Full Host spent their weekend in Aarhus, playing paintball, shopping etc. Then we got new activity classes here at school, and had a lot of great and active teaching in our cultural classes. In addition, we have been to some successful fairs, and one of our students even won a prize worth 20,000 kroner at the Boat Show fair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So there's plenty to cover in this week's newsletter. Enjoy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10 Danish students from the 10+ Spanish elective had a nice visit from Bilbao in Spain this week. The visit was from 10 Spanish students from the school CF Somorrostro, with whom we have an exchange programme. The Spanish students have spent 1 week at the school, where in addition to living in a room with their hosts, they have also visited their host families on the extended weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A huge thank you to the sweetest students for coming to visit us here at Ranum. A big thank you also goes to the Danish families who welcomed the Spanish students so well this weekend<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Full Host Weekend<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Full Host spent their weekend in Aarhus, where they had a nice and eventful weekend. Friday started with a game of paintball in the woods, and we dare say that Full Host coordinator Tine was a little nervous before the battle. The object of the game is to capture the flag from the other group, which is taken down using the paintball guns. Great fun and very muddy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday Full Host had a relaxing day visiting central Aarhus. They visited the Aros museum, and went shopping. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Sunday, the students had a relaxed start at Art-by-me, where they painted beautiful ceramic pieces and had hot cocoa. They continued at Baazar West for a Mediterranean dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Culture Costa Rica<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Costa Rican culture class is practicing a little surf in the shallow water at Klitm\u00f8ller, before they are ready to leave for warmer climes in Costa Rica within a month! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the students were then ready to take up the challenge and practice surfing before heading to Costa Rica!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sea survival course<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skills sailing was on the \"Sea Survival\" course last Wednesday in the swimtail. Lots of fun, laughs, teamwork and learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below you can see how teamwork played a big role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Northern Lights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Many of our students were eager to see the Northern Lights - and Northern Lights they did! It was really beautiful and many students took some great pictures which they proudly showed to the students and teachers who didn't go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fashion - can you help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dear parents and grandparents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of our students love to knit and they just want to knit more and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore, we are happy to accept leftover yarn or old knitting needles if you have any lying around. Just so we can knit a little bit more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the pictures you can see the students of 10+ Fashion in full swing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
