The annual
trip to the Moselle Valley in Germany took place just
before half term with
a group of forty Year
8 students
visiting the
Roman city of Trier, Burg Eltz and Phantasialand.
Just after midnight on October
20th 2009, 40 pupils from
Year 8 set off on a 5 day trip to the
Moselle Valley in Germany. They visited the Roman City
of Trier which is also an
excellent centre for shopping. The second day was spent
in the Phantasialand theme park near Cologne, with rides
to suit all tastes. Evening
activities included events such as a quiz night and a
talent competition.
The final day included a guided tou
r of Castle Eltz and
a look round the town of Cochem on the banks of the Moselle.
Castle Eltz is one of the most photogenic castles in
Germany, and Cochem was the last opportunity to buy souvenirs
in the many gift shops. There was a disco on the final
evening, before an early(ish) night and the long journey
home.
