Once again, pupils enjoyed our annual trip to Germany.

Excursions included:

Phantasialand
Situated in Bruhl near Cologne, it has been voted the best theme park in Germany several times. It has something for all the family and many of the rides are located indoors. The rides are set out in themed areas and there are also a lot of things to see and many shops and great places to eat.

Boppard and Cochem
Two attractive towns beside the river with lots of souvenir shops. Boppard has a chairlift to take visitors high above the town for a superb view of the 4 lakes. The pedestrian town centres makes them an ideal venue for school groups and Boppard has mini-golf and a mini tourist train whilst Cochem has an outdoor wave pool with bowling and a restaurant.
