Happy Xmas (War Is Over)

Happy Xmas (War Is Over) - John Lennon and Yoko The Plastic Ono Band with The Harlem Community Choir.

So this is Christmas and what have you done,
Another year over, a new one just begun.

And so this is Christmas, I hope you have fun,
The near and the dear ones, the old and the young.

A very merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one without any fears.

And so this is Christmas for weak and for strong,
The rich and the poor ones, the road is so long.

And so happy Christmas for black and for white
For the yellow and red ones let's stop all the fights.

A very merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one without any fear.

And so this is Christmas and what have we done
Another year over, a new one just begun.

And so happy Christmas we hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones, the old and the young.

A very merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one without any fear.

War is over if you want it, war is over now.

What are boys and girls like?

On 25th November, we celebrated the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. We decided to work on gender role stereotypes with some of the students in first and second year secondary school. They were requested to describe what the opposite gender is like, so boys described girls and girls described boys, and they also had to draw someone of the opposite gender performing an activity which they consider is not typical. 

Of course, the aim of the exercise is not to promote gender role stereotypes but to identify these roles in order to escape them. Our students have noticed we are all unique and no stereotypes can define what we are like.
