The 9th of May a sympathetic and charming Scottish comes to our school, David Vivanco¡ Every year he comes to our school to teach his songs and traditional dances of his country.

To start the day, he played the bagpipes for the whole school (including family members). We started representing one of his songs called "THREE BIRDS", it was fun; later we learned three traditional dances of his country, one of them was called OXO REEL, a funny name, and I liked most was the last, because there were many movements and we have lot of fun.
David Vivanco always surprises me with the dances and songs brings prepared.
You're always welcome. A kiss...

On 9th of May, David Vivanco came back to our school. He came out to meet us at the entrance of the school like last year.

He is an important Scottish musician that plays the bagpipes and dances Scottish songs very well. He was dressed with a kilt and green long socks.

This year we did a lot of funny things. First, we sang a funny song that it talked about the birds. After, we danced three songs and finally he said us goodbye.

 I don‘t know if we will see David Vivanco again because this is our last year in our school, but it was a fun and amazing experience for me. I hope to see you soon David!!
