ESPloring - Exploring our school

  "The labels we carry" At first sight, everything around us is an unknown world. We, human beings, have the habit of labelling others based only on the way they dress, the way they talk and the way they look. That's a very sad thing, because we have preconceived ideas about others and we don't even give them a chance to really show themselves.   We all have a story, feelings and emotions, we all have a life! Even at school, we judge others by their appearance and we realise that we are also judged, that we carry labels (this is why we worry so much about what others think of us). The cure for this is love , being loved. We have to love each other and allow ourselves to get to know one another.

  Hello everyone! We are Afonso and Eva, we live in Penafiel (a city in Porto), in Portugal and we are both 16 years old. Actually, our birthday is on the same day. We first met when we were at swimming training together. Then in seventh grade we went to the same class and now we’re best friends. In this blog, we will talk about our amazing school “Escola Secundária de Penafiel (ESP)” and our school life. We hope you enjoy it!
