María Basterrechea is one of the most dynamic, upbeat persons I have ever met. I remember having her in class during my first year in Ribeira (2008), and thinking how privileged I was for coming in touch with such a cheerful, enthusiastic person, committed to work hard and with the gift of lighting up an entire room and making others feel better.
I remember learning a lot from the videocast her family put together. Marta and Pablo and "Los Cociñecos" taught me how to cook "paté marinero" or "galletas bicolor".
Last July, when I met with María and Alicia to tell them about the creative writing project, they were really excited about it and showed their willingness to participate, for which I am ever so grateful!
María has sent us a description of their school which I am including below:

CEIP Escarabote
Saúdos desde Escarabote!
O noso colexio atópase na aldea de Escarabote, que pertence ao concello de Boiro. Aínda que estamos ao lado do mar, para chegar ao colexio temos que subir unha costa moi grande, o bó e que temos unhas vistas preciosas dende arriba.
Somos 170 persoas as que formamos a comunidade educativa: 150 alumnos e alumnas repartidos en nove aulas, dende 3 a 12 anos (Infantil e Primaria), 15 mestres, o conserxe, 2 persoas encargadas da limpeza, a coidadora, e Elisa, a nosa auxiliar de conversa, que vén de moi lonxe, de Florida.

O centro ten un edificio grande onde están as aulas de primaria, biblioteca, ximnasio, aula de inglés, sala de ordenadores, despachos: secretaría, orientación…Outro edificio onde están as aulas de infantil e a aula de música, e un pavillón. O noso patio é moi grande e ten unha pista para xogar a baloncesto, balonmán, fútbol…e tamén hai un patio para os nenos e nenas de infantil.
Este ano temos un proxecto para traballar todos ao longo do curso, chámase: “Alimentámonos coa lectura”. Queremos investigar moito sobre este tema, xunto cos nosos mestres e tamén na casa.
