Moving from Spain to London
Picture
Natalia and Katherine, from Notre Dame High School in Southwark, came to LADPP for two weeks in July to do their work experience. They shared with us what it was like for them to move from Spain to England. We hope you enjoy their story!

When we came to live in London many things changed. Specially, we needed to learn the language to be able to communicate with people everyday. We also needed to find a school to continue with our studies and to be able to improve our English. When we were at school there were some teachers that helped us as we did not speak enough English. We needed to learn English to understand the other subjects as we even had to learn French in English.


We used to live in Spain so when we came here, we experienced several changes like having to travel by bus to go to school or having to have lunch at school. We also had to adapt to a different way of grading our results. We prefer living in Spain but we think that living in London give us more opportunities for the future.​
