The visit in Germany

On 27th of March 2007 we went to Germany on the basis of Socrates-Comenius Program.
Together with our teachers, Anna Bober and Anna Sieńkowiec, and my friends from school, Damian Kowanda, Sara Śnioch and Patryk Pietrzak, we got to the village Schwanebeck at around 4.30 p.m. There the host families from Germany took us homes where we lived for 4 days. I went with a girl called Friedericke and her parents. She introduced me to her friends. After that we went to look around the village and have dinner.
Next day Friedericke and I went to school after breakfast. The lessons were not as usual as we were drawing and playing different games. After lunch she took me and another friend from Finland to Art AG. It is a place where we could learn some circus tricks and also develop the art and manual skills.
On Thursday we, I mean all friends from all partner schools and our teachers, were taken by one of German classes to Bernau. This is the oldest town in-around Berlin. We saw there some old buildings, former town walls of Old Bernau and the old post office. At 4 p.m. we went again to school, because on that day the German pupils together with their parents were taking part in Easter market. They organized the feast during which we could make many things from wood, paint eggs, eat some Easter cakes or drink something.
On Friday morning we went to school at 8 as there was a trip to Berlin planned for us. We watched the TV Tower, Brandenburg Gate, the Cathedral, the Berlin Wall and Reichstag, which is Parliament. After we came back to Schwanebeck we said goodbye to all the pupils, teachers and our new German friends. Then we already had a lot of memories of altogether spent moments, laugh, farewells, presents and invitations to come and visit our school in Poland. We got on our minibus and went back to Koszalin.
I am really happy about the trip to Germany and I’d like to experience such an adventure once again. It was a very serious task for me to represent our school and all our pupils. The atmosphere in the German school and their homes was really warm and nice. We met pupils of our age, made friends with them and visited some interesting places. I like the idea of pupils’ exchange, so I regret that I’m leaving my school, the great teachers, my younger schoolmates and friends this year.
