On Wednesday all German students of St. Ansgar went to a Menonite school in the first two classes. The Menonites sang some songs for us and we also sang one for them. After that we asked them a lot of questions about their life and found out that they have to work after school at home. But they get no homework from the school. In school they have got all classes with all Menonites together who are in different grades.
Afterwards we went back to the high school and had a meeting with a nice couple who lived for about six years in Walsrode (Germany). It was very interesting to hear their thoughts about Germany. In our last class two of our German students went with some American students (learning german) to the elementary school and taught them some basic German words. When I came home, Olivia and me began to bake a cake for the German café on thursday(25th october). In the evening we wen to a volleyball game and there was a "kiss the pig contest". We had a lot of fun!
