A German Exchange was organized with a school in Hamminkeln, Germany. This exchange took place in April 2010, a large number of students travelled to Germany; they stayed with German families and attended the local school. This exchange programme is well established and we look forward to the return visit of our German friends. This is an excellent way to learn German whilst making friends for life. Each student was required to keep a diary while we were in Germany. Pen friends were also organized.
