'RAFAEL DIESTE' 2018 STUDENTS' GRADUATION

This evening we said goodbye, once again, to another 2nd Bac year students from IES Plurilingüe "Rafael Dieste". It was the 2012-2018 group of pupils. The event was held at the "Andrés Gaos" Auditorium at the nearby Superior Music Conservatory. And like every year, speeches, videos, performances and memories reminded us of their years at our school.
Here are photos of the outstanding moments.

Congratulations and good luck to all!
