Lately, a special atmosphere reigned in the entrance of the Maintenon college.
Ms. Morales, a Spanish teacher in the establishment, decided to make her pupils live in el dia de los muertos, a Mexican custom.
“I am Mexican and in my country this day is very important. Altars are set up in all the houses and in all the businesses. We eat the favorite dish of the deceased, we listen to his music and we also prepared the traditional dishes of the country. “, says the teacher.
This is how the pupils were able to taste brioches, cakes and other dishes prepared by Mrs. Morales, who gave them all the explanations in Spanish. A very concrete way to learn a foreign language and discover customs so important that they have been included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of humanity since 2003.
