Guten Tag!
We are back in the blog with another interesting entry related with our school or English topics.
Now the topic, as it was the last one, is about interchanging and the knowledge of cultures around Europe.
Apart from the pen-pal with Birmingham in ESO level 1 ( 1°-2° ), Salesianos Pamplona has started an in-person interchange with a school in Braunschweig, Germany : Kleinburg Gymnasium (school in German).
Last March, 13 students from that school and two teachers came to Pamplona to meet those 13 students from our school who volunteered to enter in the new programme. They first sent each other a letter to introduce themselves and Juanjo Bonilla and Maite Pierola, from Salesianos, connected the German student with our student.
As I said, our students put up the German students in their houses/flats and the school organised some social activities and special lessons for them in the school. They first had a city tour around Pamplona and its fortress on Saturday and free time for Sunday, so they went with their host families to Donosti-San Sebastian, for instance, or famous places in Navarre like Javier, Olite or Isaba.
The week of the 16th March-20th March German students had special lessons at our school about subjects like Music, Sports, Philosophy, English and of course Spanish with our teachers Nerea, Soler, Mikel, Berta, Inma, or Maite.
Finally they visited the city hall, met the mayor Enrique Maya and went out in the balcony where our famous festival of Sanfermines start from, went shopping to Itaroa or La Morea, and visited the two universities in our city.
Ahora estamos en Braunschweig, devolviéndoles la visita y hemos llegado el viernes 17 al aeropuerto de Hannover, donde nos recogieron los padres de los alumnos del intercambio, igual que nosotros les recogimos en Bilbao, pero ésta va a ser otra historia que a partir de ahora os van a contar los alumnos del intercambio de nuestro colegio que han venido con nosotros.
La idea va a ser escribir en "English" la mayoría y algo en el idioma de Cervantes, porque como sabéis no tienen nuestras letras ni acentos, y va a ser difícil escribir muchas palabras, pero esperamos que nos sigáis igual que siempre.
