Indian students discover Brandenburg: an exchange full of experiences!
Mayor Steffen Scheller received a group of Indian students in the Brandenburg town hall on Thursday. This exciting encounter takes place as part of the "Germany Plus" exchange program of the pedagogical exchange service. The students who come from cities such as Mumbai and Neu Delhi are in Brandenburg an der Havel and living in host families for two weeks. You have not only conquered a well -deserved place in the city, rather immerse yourself deep into German culture and school life.The group remains in Brandenburg until July 10 and will then spend four days in Berlin. During your stay, you have the opportunity to explore the landscape and enjoy life in the host families, even if the early standing up for many is a challenge for many. "We think the surroundings are great, but getting up early is pretty hard," a student described his impressions.
insight into the Indian education world
During the reception, Scheller found out about the Indian school system, which often records up to 8,000 students per school. From the first up to the eighth grade, students are taught in three languages. "This is a completely different dimension than with us," noticed one participant in the exchange. The Indian students are also used to the yellow school buses and enjoy their sharp and hearty menu.A meal in which Indian and German students can enjoy delicious dishes together is also planned - in the "Malabar" restaurant. Cultures meet here and there is space for exchange and understanding.
cultural activities and experiences
A varied program is waiting for the Indian guests. This includes visits to the Brandenburg Technical University (THB), an organ concert in the cathedral, a city rally and a boat trip on the Havel. The “Sailing Sail” gallery is also on the program. Many Indian students are very interested in considering studying in Germany, especially in Brandenburg an der Havel.
A highlight is likely to be the mountain festival on the first weekend in July on the Marienberg, where the students have the opportunity to experience local life up close. Steffen Scheller expressed his joy over the possibility of seeing the students at the mountain festival again, and emphasized the importance of such exchanges for intercultural dialogue.
promotion of the exchange in Brandenburg
These programs are part of a comprehensive coalition agreement that was signed under the motto "Cohesion, Sustainability, Security" between the SPD, CDU and Bündnis 90/Greens in Brandenburg. The focus here is on the international student and youth exchange to give young people the opportunity to get to know different cultures and get in touch with each other. The support of school partnerships and the opportunity to establish German-Polish schools are just a few of the measures that will be sought in the future to promote exchange and to improve the networking of educational institutions. Exchange makes school offers valuable information and support for interested families and students.
The importance of exchange programs should not be underestimated. Numerous programs can be compared on platforms such as schueler exchanges so that schoolchildren and their families can find the right option. There are not only reviews of former exchange students, but also helpful tips for preparing for the exchange.
