really near to Gevelsberg. The city has an air
train.

hydraulic engine
factory in

9. How is the school?
It was a big school, there were 4 clases per
course and in all the clases they speak
german except English and other languages.
The first and the second day we were in
the physic class and chemistry class. The
third and the fourth day we didn`t do any
class.
10. Subjects
In regard to the subjects we found that their
level compared with ours is very similar.
In addition, they took courses in which we could
participate, such as Castilian, English and
chemistry.
When we were at the Institute
of Gevelsberg we found that make many breaks
between subjects compared to us. During the
morning (8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.) they were 2
breaks. We do not make any.
We realised that not all the students hat class in
the afternoon. It depends on the subjectes which
they do.
11. THE MENSA
The mensa is a very important part in the
school, is the place where the pupils eat
and where they spent the time without
class.
12. Livestyle in Gevelsberg
On summer evenings tend to go
home (17:00 PM), they do their homework. By mid-
afternoon they use to go in a pub for chat.
In winter when they leave school often go home
to do homework and then they entertain
surffing internet, playing consoles, etc…
In Gevelsberg, many people practice sport in the
evenings. Also this year opened a pool and
a sports pavilion.
