Forty-eight boys from Years 9 and 10, along with 16 girls from Wycombe High School, are currently spending a week in Osnabrück, Germany. They are staying with their Exchange Partner's family, and will be visiting various towns around the area, including Münster, Bremen, Cologne and Osnabrück, as well as spending a morning experiencing lessons in a German school.

Here they are seen after a day spent in school visiting lessons with their partners. 

The picture below recorded by the High School's Hugh Mothersole from the town's webcam  shows the group in the old town of Osnabruck. Rathaus Osnabrück 2008

You can find out a bit more about the town of Osnabrück here and about the Ratsgymnasium School here (this last link is to a site in German, though!).
