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. HOD Languages, Nicole Polke says .......
