Monday 18 April

Monday was our full day at school. It started out with sports in the morning - aerobics followed by a choice of volleyball, badminton, dancing and hockey. However, people mostly chose volleyball and badminton. As I have a cold, I didn't take part but it was fun and interesting to watch. The afternoon was spent first in a class with our hosts and then in a younger English class, either year 6 or year 8 - I was in year 6 along with about five other Kiwis. We each said a sentence in English about NZ and then the children asked us if we could speak German so we each said a sentence about ourselves in German. We were then each given a group of four or five students to teach them seven new sentences in English about NZ or NZ phrases. This was to help them with their English although most of us just ended up speaking German, I for one. Two girls then did a little play for us, in English, which was very good especially since they've only been learning English for about two years and they knew all their lines off by heart. After lunch we were taught the Polka dance (a.k.a. Anne-Marie) the dance we always perform at the farewell parties for this exchange. We were also taught the Vienna Waltz (if that's how it's spelt) which frightened everyone at first but we soon got the hang of it.

An enjoyable day, if I may say so myself =).
