Others have been taken to the Heide Park, theme park.Today we will be heading off to Habke for a walk in the forest, followed by a farewell party there in the Oran gerie.  Everyone is practising their farewell speeches (in German!).

Today we are spending the day at the new sister-school, Bordegymnasium. The school is large, modern and reminds one of Cherrybrook in many respects. The students are all very friendla and interested in the encounter with Aussies! The Aussies have been divided into groups of three, and will particpate in a range of "normal" lessons throughout the day. The lessons so far have been interesting and vareid and should be a highlight for our students.
