Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Hello ! I’m Camille Muller and I’m 14 years old. I live in a small village called Ebersheim, near Selestat. I love Christmas : I like giving presents to make people happy ! I love decorating the Christmas Tree ! At home, we opened all the presents on the 24 December at midnight.
For the new year, I was with my friends. It was very cool, we danced all the night, and laughed a lot. We watched a film too.
My good resolution is to be nicer with my parents and watch the integral season Newport Beach J. And you, what’s your good resolutions?
Bye

Merry Christmas and happy new year to the British!
I'm Margot, I'm fouteen years old and I go to Bernstein High School. Here in Alsace it snows and we are very cold. But It's Christmas time, so everybody is happy! On the 24 of December, I stayed at home with my family. We ate some "Bouchée à la reine" a french meal (fortunately for you, we didn't eat the queen! ). It's very good, YummY! This year, my sister was father Christmas! Oops, no no..^^
On new year’s eve I played upstairs with friends, and the adults played "Casino" in the living room.
I enjoyed my holidays! and YOU?!

OUR LETTER TO FERRERS : June,2008
Hello everybody !
Thank you for you letter, it made us happy!
In our European section class, we are eleven girls and eight boys! We are 13 or 14 years old. We live in (or around) Dambach-la-ville, which is a little town south of Strasbourg, in Alsace, near the Vosges Mountains.
In our region there are many vineyards. Our school is small and there are twenty-seven classrooms. We’ve got a canteen and a gym, a stadium. There are nearly four hundred pupils in the school.
In our European section class, just some people went to England; most of us learnt English for three years, and German too. We have all got brothers and sisters. During this year, we have study; The British Isles, America: the Indian life and Pochahantas, and Australia. Seven Australian pen friends are here at the moment.
Some little questions…
Ø Can you send us your photo?
Ø How long is the school day?
Ø Have you got a canteen or do you eat at home?
Ø How many holidays do you have in a year?
Ø Have you got lots of homework?
Ø What is the weather like in England?
