UA Welcomes Brazil Delegation





On Saturday we welcomed our friends from Nossa Senhora da Piedade Ursuline school in Bahia, Brazil. We have 7 guests from our sister-school, 5 students and 2 teachers. So far, we are enjoying a wonderful visit. Today was the first day that the guests accompanied our students to class. Their first sight of Ursuline was the newly decorated Global Village - complete with a balloon palm tree and mylar monkeys which, we hope, have added a festive and tropical feeling to our school. Later, they enjoyed a tour of the school given by our very own Gaga girls. We decided that the guests should enjoy a real Dallas meal so we took them to dinner at Snuffer's restaurant before attending the Dallas Mavericks game at the American Airlines Center (yes, the Cheese fries were a hit!). Despite being shocked at how big everything is in Texas (the roads, the drinks in restaurants, etc.), our Brazilian friends are rapidly making themselves at home here in Dallas and we are thrilled to have them with us! Bem-vindos! (Welcome!)
