Our trip to Ireland – 7ABC

Englischer Text: Amelie G., Sophie H., Ines M. (alle 7A), deutscher Text und Fotos: Prof. Bogner-Zisler 

Alle 7. Klassen machten sich heuer im Juni 2023 gemeinsam mit Prof. Schwaiger, Prof Kehl, Prof. Steiner und Prof. Bogner-Zisler auf die Reise nach Irland. Dort erwartete uns viel Sonnenschein, manchmal überraschend viel Regen, sehr freundliche Iren und viele wunderbare gemeinsame Erlebnisse. 

 
   Nach fünf Tagen in Dublin bei Gastfamilien und zwei Ausflugstagen in Galway sprachen wir alle fast nur noch Englisch.
 
 
Das schrieben die Schüler:innen nach ihrer Rückkehr:
 
Dear readers!
As we, all the students of the eleventh grade, delayed by the Coronavirus but luckily this year, went on our trip to Ireland, we want to give you some insights.
 
 
During the first five days, we spent our time in Dublin and stayed with host families, which gave us an impression of the Irish way of life. We went to language school and visited the most important sights together. Additionally, on one afternoon, our group took a trip to Howth, a peninsula near Dublin, where we saw the cliffs and watched sea seals.
 
 
On our last evening, we had an Irish dance class.
 
 
The next morning, we drove to Galway to spent our last two days there. On our way, we stopped at Clonmacnoise, a unique monastery ruin, and the famous Cliffs of Moher. Of course our group did not miss the bike tour on the Aran Islands where we were surprised by heavy rain.
 
 
For more personal insights and experiences of the students please continue reading:
„We had a great time in Ireland and I especially enjoyed our walking tour in Howth. Seeing a seal in its natural environment made me very happy. And the cliffs were beautiful too.“
 
„Dublin is a great city to visit. We learned a lot about Irish culture and history. Especially the Irish dance party was a perfect opener to the Irish music.“
 
 
„I really enjoyed the stay with my host family. They were really nice!“
 
„I am very grateful for the possibility to go on this trip to Ireland. It´s a beautiful country with nice people. And the activities were well-chosen so there was something for everyone.“
 
 
„We also learned about Gaelic Games and we played them. It was really funny! This was a great addition to the trip.“
 
„The landscape is so beautiful and the Cliffs of Moher are amazing! Also Dublin is an interesting city but the public transport I‘m not missing!“
 
„I gathered great memories and made new friends. Thank´s a lot!“
