Well we were certainly lucky to have such lovely weather for our (short) trip to Brighton
Beach. I hope you enjoyed seeing a new, quiet part of Melbourne, and trying fish and chips!

HOLIDAY HOMEWORK
Below are some good websites for English practice during the break. Remember, 30 minutes - one hour a day EACH day of the 3 week break will really help your English. Of course, I hope you will also continue to listen and read English in other, more interesting ways (TV, radio, magazines, films, ) EVERYTHING helps!
Spend 30 minutes a day doing these exercises to help you improve your sentence structure and grammar.

READING FOR ESSAY 2
It is CRUCIAL that you do some reading for the next essay while you have some extra time over the holiday period.
A little reading on the topic everyday during the break will go a long way!
ACTION PLAN:
1) Study the essay question on page 7 (yellow book)
2) Read pages 24 - 25(orange book) (Take summary notes! )
3) Read pages 28-31 (orange book) ( Complete the tables on page 30)
4)
Enjoy your break!
Remember to spend as much time outdoors as possible - enjoy fresh air and the sunshine when you have the chance. (But wear a hat and sunscreen!)

Get some exercise - swimming, basketball, walking, ANYTHING! !
Remember that exercise makes us happy (there is scientific proof of this !) .
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND
A HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!
"May the miracle of Christmas fill your heart with warmth and love.
Christmas is the time of giving and sharing, and enjoying the company of others.
It is the time of loving and forgiving.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday to everyone in UP2i. I would also like to take this chance to wish you a very happy 2010 - May the new year bring you all health, happiness, peace - and of course success"
See you in 2010!
Josephine
