Hi,
How are you? We’re 6th
grade student from Arteagabeitia school in Barakaldo. Barakaldo is in the Basque
Country, in the north of Spain. Our flag is called “ikurrina” and it’s red, green and white. Barakaldo is near the
sea and in the summer we go to the beach. There are a lot of mountains too. The typical food is fish and it can
be cooked in different ways. We like football and in Bilbao there is a big stadium “San Mames”. Other sports
we play are “herri kirolak” typical Basque sports and rowing.
