Welcome to the Sanpa Times

In this Winter edition of the 4th year`s Xanpa Times, we are going to give you unusual inform a-

tion about some subjects that actually are of special interest. Furthermore, we have done a

great effort making these magazines because we wanted to assure that they could be a great

success.

As Seneca said, work and struggle always call to the best, so we have worked a lot asking people

with an important role in the school for documentation and personal photographs as well as

formatting the best way possible in order to make the magazine attractive. Xanpa Times includes

interesting and complete surveys about different issues such as Films, Alcohol, and Parties thatgives us an orientation of the world we live on.

As well as surveys, the ma gazine is completed with 20 news stories that have answered the Five

Ws (professor William Cleaver Wilkinson), because they are regarded as basics in information.

The objective of this magazine is to entertain ca lling the lector`s attention with an attra ctive

format and a veridical information.

Our final area of inquire, was to see whether we were able to work as a team, we have managed

to do it so please continue reading....

lliant articles such as:

Surveys:

Diabolos Aroundte SchoolSince classes started it seems as if a plague of diabolos had invaded our

school. Children between 4th primary and 4th year of E.S.O are playing with

these objects and achieving some incredible tricks.

It all started when some boys from the 4th year of E.S.O brought some of

them one day. Younger students saw them and now it has become a new

fashion in school. Its really incredible says Marcos Areizaga, a 4th E.S.O

student.

Aibak, te new Caring Company

This year our school has changed the

dining rooms food, so now the

company Aibak is in charge of the

kitchen. Last year Miguel was the

cook and made all the food but he has

retired so Etxeko-Janak brings the

food to school.

Miguel was 65 years old, so hedecided to retire. He was helped by a

young man that now is the principal cook.

Aibak has a large team of cooks and

waitress that prepare the food in schools

installations.

It is okay, but they give us very little

quantity of food commented one

student.

New goals on the Black Field for young people with great promise

There are four new goals on

the Black Field since October

and they are made for the

children from the primary

school.

The sports director decided to

build a new football field for

the young people in the

primary school, so he decided

to put four new goals on the

side where there were

benches and grass and now

there are four little football

can be taken off to play a full

side football match (which

needs all the Black Field).

This was a proposal made by

the teenagers of the school

that later become moreimportant and finally they did

it. They are used in

playgrounds and for the

Benjamin football team. It

is fantastic! Now they have to

put grass and our school will

be well-known said Daniel

Dong.

To Belgium by busAt the beginning of November, the

vast majority of the 4 year ESO

students are going to participate on theBelgium exchange. They are going to

go there by bus.

From the 8th to the 15th of November,

the pupils are going to go to Amberes.

46 students are going to take part on

this exchange.

Amusing said one of the pupils of 3

B when hearing the news.

Students job

This year the students from the 4th year can

work in the dinning room, the students that get

this job have to help children to eat, this job is

paid almost 50, they discount it from the fees

of the dinning room, the students work

Monday, Wednesday and Friday. There are

many students that want to work there, so theyseparated people into different trims to work in.

The aim of these work is to have first contact

with children and to be more responsible not

because of the money.

Mircea Dumitru from the 4th year thinks: It is a

very good opportunity you learn how to take

care of kids, not to mention the money they

give you weekly.

Dani Dong

Fromte outdoorte indoor

This year some students form the forth year are playing

indoor football instead of the one we are used to. At

once they were going to make up a normal footballteam, but as there werent enough people, they took

pot luck with the indoor football. That idea ended up

as being very attractive since two more teams made

up by girls from primary have signed up. Firstly, we

werent very sure, but as we are having very good

results playing very well, we are really motivated

said Eric, a player for the indoor football team.

St. Paicks Heavyweight Championship

On the 15th of October two

students from the third year

had a brutal fight in the 3rd

B classroom. The fight

started because one ofthem previously jumped

on the other student as a

joke during playtime but

he didnt like the joke.

Once in class both

started a blazing row and

immediately to push and hit

each other. The fight was so

brutal that they used chairs

and tables. Finally, they

stopped fighting and none of

them was injured.Suddenly all the students

from the corridor were

standing in front of the

classroom watching or asking

what was going on! said

Tomas, a student from the 3rd

year.

Ignacio Iturrarte

New IT specialist at school

This year we can no longer find Auritze in St

Patricks corridors or classes because he has

gone from school. Now, our new IT specialist is

Iker Rodriguez.

Auritze has left school because he felt he

couldnt develop his capacities. When he camesome years ago he already knew this job in St

Patricks would only last a few years. All the

teachers who knew him already knew he was

going to leave school sooner or later

commented Juan Elvira.

Iker comes from a company called Iberntica.

Both IT specialists didnt know themselves.Eric Laqueche

New Secretary arrives at school

This year a new secretary has been chosen

to lend her services to our school. Maider,

the new secretary, was chosen for her

skills. However, the school didnt count on

the following- Maider has been met with

the entire male students approval. Why?

Obvious, or at least thats what we think

commented several 4th year students.

Afr being absent for a year, Pilar Goyoaga has come back

choolLast year the 4th year ESO Spanish teacher wasnt seen around school

because she had taken a sabbatical year for herself. Although being away

12 months, she didnt leave Oiartzun, the city where she lives.

Instead of Pilar Goyoaga, Pilar Arsuaga gave the lessons. Its good to

have Pili back; she is a very laid back person. Thats what I like about her

said Uma, a 4th year ESO student.

Teacher of school operad on

The social studies teacher, Mikel Ochoa has

been operated on. He was operated on, in the

Policlinica Guipuzkoa Hospital for an eye

problem (cataracts). After being operated on, on

the Sunday the twelfth of October, he spent a

week resting, so Ana was in charge of taking

care of his classes during the whole week.

Mikel Ochoa is fully recovered

now he had demonstrated this

by going to the Pyrenees with

the first year bachillerato

students. While he was not here

the work he left was efficiently

done.Pablo Martinez

Bus roundabou

This year at four thirty student from St Patricks English

school that go on bus to their homes cant walk from the

centre of the round about to get on their buses more

quickly.

This new rule has been used as a precaution for students

to avoid being run over by the buses. Jesus is in charge

of not letting the students pass through the centre of the

round about.

Daniel Dong a fourth year eso student says I dont like

this rule but I understand its for our safety.

ST-Paicks School feels te need of securi

At the beginning of the first

term, the school installed

cameras at the main entrance

to the school in order to

provide a sense of security

and avoid robberies. After

discussing a couple cases of

robbery at the school, thehead of administration,

headmaster and business

manager finally decided the

need of installing two

cameras. Even though they

had some problems with them

and had to replace them, they

are currently working

perfectly. Now the cameras

will try to prevent robberies,

such as the few that took

place at the school last year in

which cell phones and moneywere stolen, and also to

prevent cars being broken into

in the parking lot as well as

providing a more accurate

control of the pupils. It

seems we will have to live asif we are in a jail if thats the

only way of doing it

commented Jess, the school

guardian.

Rules

St.Paicks renovas its rules

New rules for absences in St.Patricks English

school which the commission introduced forthis year in order to increase the discipline and

control of the students.

The school didnt want students leaving school

without anyone being aware of that any more

so the commission agreed to introduce several

new, more strict rules.

One of them is that the attendant at school is

totally obligatory and either your father,

mother or tutor must inform the school of any

absence.

Furthermore, the student must tell the tutor if

he has to go out of school, and if the tutor isnt

available, the coordinator.

Finally, the notification of an absence doesnt

mean its justified, so it might be reflected in

the marks at the end of the term.

Two hours more a week

This year, the LOE has changed. As a consequence, all of

the ESO students have to work two hours more a week.

Due to this change, the timetable increases from thirty to

thirty two hours a week. We had enough with thirty hours,

after break we have to work three hours non stopsaid

Iigo Oate from fourth of ESO.

One Hour more of P.E.

This school year due to a new law, the school

has added two new hours to the timetable. One

of them is another hour of P.E.

On one hand it has given us another hour for us

to do sport, but on the other hand has taken time

off our break which makes a 7 hour day.

Many students are looking forward to losing a

bit of weight, but others are outraged with their

breaks being taken away from them. We will

have to wait until the end of the year to see if we

all get in shape and the change is beneficial.

Bruno Santiago

New opons inte 4t year

This year the new law let us

choose between some

subjects, depending on our

future studies.The new law has introduced

the idea that we should

choose earlier what we would

rather study.

These let us choose between

Biology or Audiovisuals

studies Latin or physics-

chemistry and between Art or

Technology& IT.

A 4th

year eso student affirmsthat this is much better

because if they let us decide

we will study the chosen

subject a lot more happily.

However, other students say

that This is not good a idea

due to some people no have

very clear what they would

like to study and who may get

confused.

School magazine

Like every other year, the press workshop has ai-med its work to create a magazine.

Throughout the year, our intention is to publish two

magazines which are about everything that has to

do with the school and a bit of leisure.

It has been hard work and in the end we had to

struggle a bit in order to finish before the deadli-

nes, but finally we were able to finish it and we

hope you all like it.

Anhour lessof English in schooltis year

This year we have an hour

less of English in School butwe have an hour a week of

a subject called Ethics that

is in English. This new

subject, Ethics, is similar

to a tutors hour that we

always have had every

year. It is taught by

Mac. the new L.O.E.

The L.O.E includes

more hours o f tutorship, but the

school has considered a better

option, which was having thetutors hour with an English-

speaking teacher, so that we

could practice English. The

school made these changes

because we wanted to teach

true English and values of the

real life as well as social

relationships said John

Phillips, who has a very

important role in school,especially in terms of English.

Language innsificaon for ate students

inte secondary schoolThis year, there is a new rule in Saint Patricks English

school. Students in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th year ESO

have new intensification classes which are Basque,

English or Spanish.

The teachers choose the intensification that

each students need to improve

and if the students is doing well

in Basque and Spanish, must go

to Press (English). 3rd and 4th year

students con also choose French.

In each class they review the task, they have been doing in the normal classes,

improving all the subjects.

Films, actors, actresses

and illegal downloadingWhat films do you usually watch? , thats a very frequent question we ask each

other every day. Our parents, as far as Im concerned, like to see historical

films and action films but sometimes they dont let us to watch some interesting

films because they are violent.

They 13th of October of 2008 we asked mo-

re or less 60 people aged between 14 and 15

years from the fourth year some interesting

questions about films actors actresses or

for example, the influence of films in our li-

fe. We received some interesting answers to

get to the bottom of this particular survey.

Please, read on.

What is your favourite genre of film?

This statistics clearly reflect that the

most popular genre is comedy, although

a lot of people also have chosen porno-

graphy as their favourite genre.

Do you download films illegally?

Its an interesting point that most of us

download films illegally.

Do you watch films at home or at the cine-

ma?

This statistic shows that most people watch films

in both places, or at home.

Which is your favourite film?

We can see that the huge majority of students ha-

ve chosen American Pie as their favourite film.

Which is your favourite actor/ actress?

It is noticeable that people, especially boys think

that Elsa Pataki is the best actress.

Do films influence your life?

It is remarkable that people think films do influence their lives.

These statistics represent that we all like the genre of the comedy the most

because it makes us laugh. Most of us download

films illegally because we dont have to pay for

the films. We sometimes prefer to watch films

at home and other times, we enjoy watching

films in the cinema. The majority of us, have as

our favourite film American Pie and other pre-

fer 300. Our favourite actress is Elsa Pataki,not because of her work, because she is very

pretty. To conclude, we think that films in-

fluence our lives in some way. For example,

American history X has influenced our life.

The truth about our TV habitsAdults are always complaining about ourTV habits. They always say we watch toomuch TV, that the programs we watcharent good for us, for example.But is this really true, or are they justexaggerating?

The aim of this survey is to find out the

truth about this difficult issue. We are cu-rious to see if teenagers spend too many

hours in front of the TV and what kind ofseries and programs we watch. Our finalarea of inquiry is to see whether we haveto change our habits or not.

We asked the whole 4th year a series ofquestions about their TV habits and thencompiled them in some easy to understand

graphs.

What kind of series/programs do you watch?

We can see that the kind of programme most of us like to watchis comedy. So why do our parents say that the programs we

watch are so horrible? Isnt it good thing to laugh a little bit aftera hard day at school?

How often do you watch TV?

As the graph shows, here weve got a problem.Most of us watch TV daily,which can distract us a lot from our studies.It would be a betterthing to reduce a little our time in front of the TV if we wantto get better moves at school.

Action 15% Comedy 80% Crime 3%

Football 2%

Twice a Week 13% Daily 87%

Do you watch it primarily alone or with your family?

Do you have a TV in your room?

More than half of us dont have a TV in our room, which is a po-sitive thing if we want to reduce the number of hours in front ofthe TV, but from another point of view, it can also be a negativething because then well have to deal with our parents or bro-thers/sisters to decide which programme to watch.

How many TVs are there in your house?

The graph shows that the majority of us have 3 TVs inour house. But there are some of us that have up to se-

ven TVs (nea 5%) so in this case it wouldnt be thechilds fault if he watched too much TV, it would be theparents fault, having an unnecessary number of TVs at

home.

Do you watch the news?

Here theres a great surprise: Most of us actually watch the news! So ourparents complaints about watching trash TV is just an exaggeration be-cause most of us, more than half, watch the news at least sometimes. Sowe are interested in what happens around the world, which is a sign that

we are not the anti-social group we are sometimes supposed to be.

What influences the type of programmes you watch?

Here we can see that our likes are most influential on each other regardingthe type of program we watch, and that advertisements only influence us

to a small degree which is a bit surprising.

These statistics show that apart from redu-cing a little bit the number of hours in frontof the TV, our TV habits are not as bad asis believed. Most of us watch the news,dont have a TV in our rooms,and we watch TV with our families. Andthere is also another important fact, which

is that advertisements dont influence us somuch as the TV producers hope to..

How Much Does Music Really Attract Us?A lot of us often consider we depend

on music more than we should. Howe-

ver, do we use it as much as it is

thought? What music habits do most

of us have? And where do we get all

the music from?

In this survey our objective was to try

to get to the bottom of this massive

social habit. How far does the society

affect how much and what types of

music we listen to and does music help

to expand our knowledge of langua-

ges? Perhaps music is the key to the

intellectuality philosophers are

seeking.

We asked the whole of the fourth year,

68 in total, a few questions about mu-

sic habits and then created some

graphs to make it easier for you to ob-

serve any remarkable answers. We en-

courage you to continue reading and

hope you find the statistics of interest.

1- What kind of music do you listen to?

Pop - 42.6%

Rock - 39.7%

Hip-Hop - 23.5%

Techno - 26.5%

Punk - 1.5%

The most popular style of song among teenagers is pop. But there is not much difference between

pop and rock which are separated by less than 3%. Hip-hop and techno are also pretty popular

among teenagers, but on the other hand, but punk isnt popular at all.

Yes - 92.7%

No - 7.3%

This statistic clearly highlights the fact that

nearly everybody likes going to concerts nowa-

days. There is just a minority of 7.3% of us who

dont like attending musical spectacles.

3- Which radio stat ion do youlisten to?

40 Principales - 70.6%

Kiss FM 7.3%

Other radio stations - 8.8%

Do not listen to music - 13.2%

And the award of best radio station goes to

Los 40 Principales. This radio station is liste-

ned to by 70.6% of us. Its the most popular sta-

tion by far. What is noticeable in this graph is

that the second most listened one is only liste-

dents dont listen to the radio.

Basque - 5.9%

German - 1.5%

The vast majority of us listen to music

in English, something remarkable for

the reason that we live in Spain. As it is

appreciable, not many people listen to

music in German or Basque. Nearlyeveryone listens to music in Spanish or English.

5-How do you get on to know aboutdifferent types of music?

Friends - 63.2%

Internet - 39.7%

TV - 8.8%

Radio - 14.7%Other - 8.8%

One the one hand most pupils at St-Patricks get to know

about different types of music through their friends and

through the internet. On the other hand, a vast minority

get to know about different music

through theinternet and music channels on the TV.

15-20 hours - 3.5%

More than 20 hours - 9.8%

We can see that there isnt a fixed tendency in the amount of music

we listen to. What is perhaps, most noticeable, is the large number of

people who listen to music more than 20 hours a week, or said in adifferent way, nearly 3 hours a day; one of every 10 of us does so.

Dont say youve never wondered about teenagers consumption

habits of alcohol and cannabis, because we all have. Im not

referring to tedious articles in which they try to encourage young

people, especially teenagers, not take either alcohol or cannabis.

But to modern and up-to-date facts.

We went to a secondary school and asked 60 4th year students. We

have the answers to the most common questions but questions,questions that have never answered until today. When you get to

the end of this article, you will know the truth abut what teenagers

do.

DO YOU CONSUME

alcohol?We can clearly see that the majority of the students

consume alcohol.

cannabis?

Clearly students do notconsume cannabis as much as alcohol.

WHEN DID YOU START CONSUMING

alcohol?

TEENAGERS + DRUG = ADDICTION!

alcohol last year.

However we

also foundout that

some others

started consuming it three years ago.

cannabis?

In this question we discovered that

45% started consuming it this year

and also that a 10% started 3 years ago.

alcohol?

There we found out that more than half of the people

spend 5. Although the vast majority do not spend alot there are people who spend more than 15.

cannabis?

Well, there is nothing to

comment, the results areclear to understand.

DO YOUR PARENTS KNOW YOU CONSUME EITHERCANNABIS OR ALCOHOL?

Almost half of the parents

know that their sons ordaughters consume alcohol if they do so or cannabis if

they do so.

I cant think of a reason for which teenagers do this, dont they know

that drink and drugs arent the definition for fun? In my opinion they

do this to gain popularity, and because they think that like this they are

more mature. But the truth is that its very childish of them to think in

this way. The worst thing is that they dont control it, and when they

stat to feel that they have serious health problems, they are alreadyhooked.

>Doyougotopubs/discos?

We can see then that not a lot of people go to pubs/discos, maybe because we are not old

enough.

These statistics are remarkable for many

reasons. The clear fact that teenagers

between 14-15 years old are used to

consume alcohol during their party time is

a clear reason to make us think about our

students habitsthis is what an adult

would answer if he was asked to comment

this surveybut all the students we asked

about what they though about their

drinking habits seemed to be confident and

not worried about that, also when we asked

the questions they answered with decision.

Also the fight of two ideas is making a really

important effect in the fourth grade

students way of answering: the minority

(16%) think they need to drink alcohol tohave a good time, while the majority (84%)

do not have the need the drink alcohol to

have a good time.

So there is an exchange of ideas, apartfrom these opinions on the alcohol, also

there are people who plead for the item

consumed of the alcoholso a crushing

majority support the consumption of

alcohol and cannabis.

Polvorosa.

Finally we think that drinking alcohol with

moderation is not dangerous and you can

have a good time, but the idea of abusing of

alcohol and other drugs like cannabis is not

certainly good for your health.

Football Survey

People complain that the Premiership is better than the Spanishleague because of the players that they have. What do you thinkabout that?

In this survey we have tried to get the answers of these ques-tions. What team do you support? Are we supporting the team of

our city or is it that we are starting to support teams thatattracts us because of the way they play?

We have done this research in the San Patricks school (4 yearstudents, 68 students in total). The questions are related to ourtaste about football but that is not all the statistics are compiledbased on the answers of the students. We hope you carry on rea-ding and also that you enjoy this survey.

Do you like football?

As we can see the majority ofthe people like football. I can

say that the majority of stu-

dents that dont like football

are girls.

Do you prefer Spanish

league or premier lea-gue?

As we can see the opinion of

the people is quite divided.

More or less half of the year

prefers the Spanish league.

YES NO

Spanish league

Premier league

What team do you

support?

We can see many different opi-

nions. On the one hand most of the

people support the team of our

city but on the other hand we cansee that 9 percent of the 4 year

supports our eternal rival.

Do you think football is

overvalued?

Real Madrid

FC Bacelona

YES NO

That is another yes, no ques-

tion there isnt much to say

but as we can see nearly the

70 percent of the 4 year think

that football is overvalue.

Do you practice football

in a team? Or just for

fun?

The majority of us play foot-

ball just for fun.These statistics are remarka-

ble for many reasons, whatstands out most is probably

that there is 9 percent of the

year that support our eternal

rival, the Athletic de Bilbao,

thats not all we can see that

YES in a team YES for fun

nearly the whole people who

don t like football are girls.

The first chart shows us the

similarities of the opinions.The second one shows us that

the whole year only like the

premiership and obviously the

local league. supported is the

local team. The fourth one

talks about the opinions iffootball is overvalue, most of

the students think that foot-

ball is overvalue. Nearly the

80 percent of the year just

play football for fun. It seems

that the answer to the ques-

tion above is the opinions arequite divided and also that the

majority of the girls dont like

football.

The Truth About the Relationship Between

Students and Teachers

A lot of us think that if there isnt any problem bet ween ateacher and a student, everything is perfect. But do wereally know what students think about thei r teachers orthe exams they have to pass?In this survey we decided to tr y to get to the bottom ofthis thorny issue. So are some of the stereotypical thingsstudents say true?We asked the whole of the fourth year (68 students in to-tal) some quest ions related to the school teachers and thenmade some graphs with the results . We hope you find theminteresting.

Which teachers do you think is the funniest?

As we can see, a lot of students think Chema is the most amusing teacher

(31%), but other people like Josemi or Josean seem to get on well with

their pupils.

Which teacher do you think sets more homework?

As the chart shows, the majority of people (31 %) think that Reyes has to

reduce the amount of homework she sets. However, we can also see the-

re are many different opinions between students.

Do you think a teacher has picked on you sometimes? If so who?

In this case most students think that a teacher had picked on them but it appears not to be a particular

teacher who picks on students as others agroups the majority (22%). However, Alazne is for stu-

dents a teacher who often picks on her pupils.

Dou you think school teachers

are modern people?This chart shows that the vast majority dontthink they are (75%). On the other hand only

the 2.94% thinks they are modern people, whe-

reas the 22.05% believes only some teachers

are modern.

Do you think you have been the

teachers pet?Here we find another topic which, in this case,the majority answered yes (56%) whereas the

(44%) answered no.

Which teacher do you think makes the most difficult exams?

As we can see, a lot of students find Simons exams the most difficult ones

(22.05%). This pie chart shows, as the previous, that not all of the inter-

viewed agree in a particular teacher.

Which teacher do you think punish students most?In this case, the biggest amount of the interviewed agrees

Chema punishes quite a lot (45.58%). New teachers in the

third year like Mac, also punishes a lot.

These statistics are remarkable for any reasons, but what stands

out most is that they serve to show what students talk about rela-

ted to their teachers when they are not listening to their teachers.

The first pie chart shows that Chema is the funniest teacher whe-

reas the third one shows Alazne as a strict teacher. This survey

also advise you to study a lot for Simons exams or shows that

many students have been the teachers pet

We do know that not all the teachers are going to agree with some

results but what we dont want to do is to make teachers argue in

the staff room.
