Wednesday 17th February
Visit to Münster. Today's trip was a visit to Münster, about an hour's coach ride from Rees. First stop was a photo outside the town hall, before we went inside to visit the Peace Hall where the Peace of Münster was written in 1648. We also visited the Stadtmuseum to learn about the Development of Münster from its early days as Mimigernaford through the Medieval period and into the 20th Century. The City was destroyed during the Second World War and has been reconstructed in the same style.

First day of the meeting in Rees, Germany
After traveling on Sunday, all the countries in the Project fianlly met up in Rees. Our students met their host families, and went to their homes in Rees for a good night's sleep.
The following day, we met up in school to go through with the first day of the project.
The students were divided into mixed groups to get to know each other, and present their families and home city to one another.
Later in the day, we all went on an excursion to Xanten where we visited an archeological site which showed a Roman city near the river Rhine.
After the visit to the Roman archaeological park, we walked into the centre of Xanten to eat lunch. Refreshed and a little warmer, we walked around Xantern and the German students told us about different buildings in the city.
