The many joys of being at Colegio Santa Ursula

Colegio Santa Ursula Vitacura in Chile is a beautiful school is which surrounded by the Andes Mountains and the awesome sophisticated city of Santiago. It is in this blissful if not ideal environment where our UA Dallas Delegates have settled in and made themselves at home this week. Each delegate has been assigned to a particular class and each has already attended classes with her Chilean sisters. After resting last night, the students were ready for a full school day today. Today, in addition to attending classes of their own, our students became the teachers and taught several sections of English to the younger Santa Ursula students. All had a wonderful time and enjoyed practicing their Spanish in addition to teaching English - one of the many thrills and benefits of this wonderful exchange! Tomorrow our group will venture out into the city of Santiago for a fantastic tour of downtown!

Buenos Dias desde Santiago!
