UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE EXAMINATIONS
PET – FCE – CAE - CPE
In this academic year the Bristol School in Gaia proposed 65
students to take the University of Cambridge Examinations (PET,
FCE and CPE) which were held in Oporto (Faculdade de
Engenharia and The British Council) early in June. It was delightful
to see all of them, especially the younger ones to prepare hard for
the exam and sit for them proudly. We wish them good luck!

The Nelson Mandela Stadium – Port
Elizabeth
Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium is a 48,000-seater stadium in Port Elizabeth. It was built
overlooking the North End Lake, at the heart of the city. It is one of three coastal stadiums
built in anticipation of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. It regularly hosts large scale football and
rugby matches. Sometimes, it is used as a concert venue.The stadium has an eyecatching, unique roof-structure and a spectacular view, overlooking the North End Lake.
This is the reason for the stadium's nickname, The Sunflower. There are not many
stadiums in the world that are designed and constructed overlooking a lake; this in itself is
a very distinctive feature of the Nelson Mandela Bay Multi-Purpose Stadium. The stadium seats 45 000 in addition to 4000 extra seats, temporarily
installed for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. The stadium also has 150 VIP suites, 60 business suites, a sports clothing shop, gymnasium, plus lecture and
function rooms. There are also two conference rooms, which are able to accommodate 200 people
After the World Cup the stadium may be used as the home ground for the Southern Kings if they are admitted to the Super 15. While Melbourne has
been announced as the winner of the 15th franchise, the Southern Kings are now hoping to be included in the South African Conference.
The stadium will host 8 games during the 2010 FIFA World Cup tournament. It will host 5 group games, as well as a round of 16 game, a quarterfinal
and the 3rd/4th playoff will be played at the stadium.
