German Student Exchange

New Zealand/German Student Exchange
Green Bay High School students Sophie Olney, Evangaline Atkin, Nora Vastag, Cooper John, Charlotte Malone, and Avisa Asghari are looking forward to hosting their German Exchange students in March next year, as part of a reciprocal NZ/German Student Exchange programme.
School attendance is an important and compulsory part of this programme. Students will benefit from the exposure to new terminology, as well as different approaches to teaching and learning. School in Germany starts early in the morning (usually 8.00 am) and finishes at lunchtime.
This Exchange programme provides young New Zealanders and Germans with the opportunity to experience the other country, its people, language, and customs. A two-month stay with the host family ensures students are fully immersed in a new culture.
