A ROYAL VISIT

On January 24th,2007, students from our school were invited to a ceremony at The Mackay School, which commemorated its 150th anniversary. H.R.H. Princess Anne was invited as a very special visitor, and students from the Viña del Mar ABSCH schools had the opportunity of speaking to her in groups. She arrived promptly on time, as was to be expected. After speaking to members of the resident British community, she shared a few moments with firemen from the George Garland Fire Company, inspected the chapel, spoke to students of each of the British schools and finally planted a tree to commemorate the occasion of the anniversary. The students who attended were Daniel Ellwanger, Kay Wettergreen, Paula Ochsenius, Susana Viñuela, Angela Canessa, Claudia Alonso,Lorena Canessa, Pablo Mahana, Claudia Wesser, Francisca Woolvett, Francisca Jouanne and Francisca Acevedo. They attended cheerfully, even though it meant wearing a uniform in the middle of the holiday season! All in all, I believe it was a unique experience for all of them.
