A Christmas Carol

To bring Term 1 to a close and open the 2023/2024 Christmas season, the talented students of 2 ESO Bilingual Section performed a puppet show adaptation of «A Christmas Carol» by Charles Dickens, which was recorded exclusively for Radio SanJoSerena. Now everyone has the chance to enjoy the magic of their live performance, as we bring Scrooge, the Ghosts, and the rest of the characters to your ears. We trust that this podcast will be just as enjoyable as the lovely live performance: a heartwarming journey into the true meaning of Christmas .
