Our students recently had the opportunity to visit Kiel City Hall and meet with Stadtpräsidentin Bettina Aust during their exchange trip to Germany. Together with students from Max-Planck-Schule Kiel, they discussed life in their respective cities, shared ideas for the future, and gained valuable insights from one another's perspectives. One topic that sparked particular interest was public transportation, with our students noting how impressed they were by Kiel's reliable and well-connected transit system. Experiences like these highlight the importance of international exchange in fostering global understanding, civic engagement, and meaningful cross-cultural connections. A special thank-you to Stadtpräsidentin Bettina Aust, the City of Kiel, and everyone involved for the warm welcome and this memorable opportunity.
