From the initial planning in summer to saying goodbye at the train station in March – a lot happens before and during an exchange week: promoting the exchange, getting to know each other in video conferences, working together on presentations through eTwinning, planning how to spend the time off together, travelling, doing activities, creating videos that look back on the exchange, and so much more. And of course, us teachers are just as nervous about the exchange as the students: Will everyone get along well? Will the weather be fine? Will there be any problems while travelling?
We are all the happier that everything went smoothly, that the two groups got along beautifully, that the students (and teachers) could make great experiences and good friends.
A big “thank you” to all who made this exchange a success: our principals and colleagues, the parents, and most importantly the students who filled this week with life and a lot of enthusiasm!
