Lessons attended and town orientation sorted

The pupils came to school very early this morning for the first lesson. They had all eaten well and slept heavily, but not enough! We headed into town to visit the city museum after a couple of lessons before exploring some of the Christmas markets. The pupils  learnt about the development of the city of Münster and about opposition to the Nazis from the Bishop Van Galen in the 1940s. A number of pupils enjoyed the food stalls and Sam has eaten at least 2 portions of Currywurst! Host families have all organised excellent, fun packed weekends. We will see the pupils on Monday. Miss Brandstätter and I enjoyed a delicious meal of Grünkohl (sausage, pork and green cabbage with potatoes) in the company of one of the host teachers, Mrs Näpel, and her  family. We look forward to catching up with the pupils on Monday.
