School Trip from Jeddah to Berlin 2024

In October 2024, a group of three male students, three female students, and a German teacher from Al-Wadi International School in Jeddah visited their partner school, the Ernst-Schering-Schule, in Berlin. During their one-week stay, the students actively participated in classes and gained first-hand insights into everyday school life in Germany.

The exchange also encouraged intercultural dialogue: the visiting students shared perspectives on school life and daily living in Saudi Arabia, while engaging in discussions with their German peers. The academic programme was complemented by cultural activities, including a visit to the Festival of Lights at Alexanderplatz on the first evening.

The visit strengthened the partnership between the two schools and supported intercultural learning as well as the practical use of the German language in an authentic context.
