Hi Guys,

Hope your weekends are going well.

This week at LAIFS we are trying something NEW and EXCITING.

We are meeting in the business school building in room 317 at 5:30. Firstly we are going to watch a short documentary called Zapatista women - see below for more details. Following this at 6:30 we will start our first conversation class for the year! This will be based around music with activities for you to do and lots of opportunities to practice your spanish.

We look forward to seeing you all!
