With our school focusing on international relations, exchange programs play a very important part in our school life. The student exchange with France is one pillar of those different programs. France and Germany are seen as the engine of the European Union. That is why encounters not only on a political but also on a personal level are essential for keeping the friendship and cooperation of these two countries alive. We have a partnership with a secondary school (‘collège’) in Caen, Normandy, and we maintain close relations with Rouillac (Nouvelle-Aquitaine), the twin city of Wiesentheid. Regular encounters on both sides take place every school year.
