2. A message from the web master to future and past generations. Sixty-five years and many generations have passed by since the first students came, bringing along their eagerness and enthusiasm for learning, which echoed in the walls of the old house on 211 Carrera Street. This site will bring back memories of those years of child play and lessons given by teachers like: Miss Longeira, Miss Alicia Avalos, Miss Mary Hill, Mr. Hctor Matamala, Mr. George Webster, Miss Moon and Head Mistress Mrs. Zenaida Katzen. They all pioneered and trusted this project- to teach in a foreign language.Mr. Peralta 3. 4th Elementary 1955 La Serena June 8th, 1955.
