My Fonix experience - By Miquel Vega


On Saturday 2nd of March, I went to ‘THE FONIX’. This is an English contest for people around Catalonia. There were five students of Can Planas high school, each one representing their course. The exam was carried out in the building of INEFC, in Montjuïc Barcelona. I thought that the place was very nice and large enough for so many people doing the exam.
Before the beginning of the exam, I was very nervous although my teachers told me that I should not, because it was not a real exam.
The classroom was huge. The people in charge of the exam explained us the rules and how much time we had. As soon as the exam started, I felt relaxed. The questions were a bit difficult, but the important thing is that I enjoyed a lot the experience.

Yes, we Fonix!




Yesterday, Paula Pérez, Miquel Vega, Ana Pedraza, Marta Vidigal and David Moran took part in the 6th edition of The Fonix. This is an inter-school English contest done in Catalunya. And the students can win several things, such as English courses abroad, Summer camps staying or online English courses
Our students had to go to the INEFC University Building next to the Olimpic Stadium, in Montjuïc, in order to do a 45-60 minutes English test. All of them included a reading comprehension with vocabulary and grammar exercices, as well as a writing. Best wishes for them, and we really hope they pass to the next phase!

Ahir, els nostres estudiants Paula Pérez, Miquel Vega, Ana Pedraza, Marta Vidigal i David Moran van participar a la 6º edició de The Fonix. Es tracta d'un concurs interescolar fet a Catalunya. I els alumnes poden guanyar moltes coses, com ara cursos d'anglès a l'estranger, estances a Summer camps o cursos d'anglès a distància.
Els nostres alumnes van anar a l'edifici universitari de l'INEFC al costat de l'Estadi Olímpic, a Montjuïc, per fer una prova en anglès de 45-60 minuts. Totes incloïen una comprensió lectora amb exercicis de vocabulari i gramàtica, a més d'una redacció. Els desitgem el millor i esperem que passin a la fase següent!
