I WAS IN 1997 a STUDENT FROM ALGERIA AT THE ABON LANGUAGE SCHOOL, CLIFTON, seeing this pictures make me looking back with a feeling of a big "nostalgy".
By the way, to the teachers of the Abon Language School a big hello and believe me what l've learned was very useful to me, as a university lecturer all my career in Algéria Thank you for what you gave us in 6 months. Go bless you all. | ||||
