Salve!  – Hello!

March, March…steadily march…like Roman legionnaires, the Inter’ soccer players have trampled on their rivals, maintaining the lead in Serie A. Napoli is still in second place, while Atalanta and Bologna are in third and fourth spots, respectively. Meanwhile, in Thailand and in Australia, the MotoGP and Formula One seasons have started. Ducati is leading the Riders', Teams', and Manufacturers' standings. Let’s see whether they can keep the good work up.

Well then, se non ti piace lo sport – If you don't like sport – maybe you will find the FAI Spring Days interesting (22^nd - 23^rd March). In fact, little-known places such as villas, manufacturing sites, castles, and palaces are open to the public. Check this video out to have an idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m64IlzHdWRY. FAI is the acronym for Fondo Ambientale Italiano – National Trust for Italy – a non-profit foundation for the protection of the historical, natural and artistic heritage in Italy. Don’t miss the FAI Autumn Days if you are travelling to Italy in October! However, if you are not going to Italy (yet), have at least a taste of it by joining us at the Italian Club. This month’s special was penne al ragù di agnello – penne with lamb-based meat sauce.

Anyway, let’s go back to where we started...I mean…marched. The 15^th of March is the anniversary of the conspiracy against Giulio Cesare – Julius Caesar. There is a word in English and another one in German that come from the word Cesare. The first student to submit the correct answer(s) will get a little premio – prize. To submit, go on Connect/Italian newsletter 2025/Discussions. Middle School and Senior compete separately. The prizes will be given during the Italian Club on Friday, April 11th.

Ci vediamo, buona giornata! –  See you, have a good day!
