Last Friday and last Saturday, the students of 4t ESO represented a PLAY-BACK to win money for the end of the course holidays.
On Friday night there was a lot of people because there was a lot of students of the IES, but on Saturday there wasn't a ot of people ans so they didn't win many money, because people were watching Eurovison and also, this students did expensive prices!!!!!!
In my opinion our PLAY-BACK was better because people laughted a lot with the boys show.
This year they have imited "Miguel Bosé", "Pimpinella", "Simple Plan"...and others.
