During the four days, the pupils ventured through the historical capital seeing various Berlin landmarks, including the Television Tower – Fernessaturm, the Olympic Stadium and the Reichstag.

The students and staff were moved by the devastating history of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp.

They saw a Jewish memorial, which portrayed the importance of equality and remembered those who had lost their lives.
