Little movie!

Here you can see a little movie about the live of Anne Frank.

Something about myselve

Before we start our project about Anne Frank, I will going to tell something about myself.

Hello, my name is Aileen Bijlsma I am 15 years old and have lived all my life in Alphen. Alphen is a small village in the southern part of Holland. There are many sport clubs available and there is much to do for children. At home I live with my parents, my little brother and sister. Also we have 2 dogs, 1 rabbit, 1 hamster, 2 guinea pigs and 3 fishes. A whole petting zoo.

My main hobby is playing soccer. I am playing soccer at my club called VV Viola. My team trains on Wednesday evenings and Saturday we play for the league. It's pretty good because we now are in 2e place in the standings. I also played at the NFL football girls under 14 years old, that was a fantastic experience. I also think it's nice to be outside and do other sports like skating or biking. I also like to hang around with my friends.



I go to school in Baarle-Nassau. It is called de la Salle. This is a High school and is situated 5km from Alphen. Every day I cycle to school with friends or classmates. The la Salle is a small school but I think it is fine. I am in the third class MAVO.  After the fourth year I would like to go to the HAVO. Since I like all sports after the HAVO I would like to do the ALO.
