Penfriends from Heide, Germany visited Schulzentrum im FIDS Quellenstraße, Vienna - Austria

 On 13th of December our penfriends from Heide, Germany visited Vienna for a week. On Tuesday they came to our school and spend the day with us. In the morning they spend some time to get to know each other, especially their penfriend. Afterwards a group started in the kitchen with Mario to bake some christmas cookies, so called Vanillekipferl. The other group handicrafted a snowman made of a white sock and rice inside with Silvia. For relaxing our gym teacher Peter built a sports parcour in our gym which was really funny. The students were exhausted and hungry after this sporty time. So we all had some pizzas for lunch together.  We all had a great time together and it was really nice to meet our german penfriends face to face.
