Ten grade 9 learners from Khomas High School were involved in an interexchange programme with ten learners from Bertolt-Brecht-Gesamtschule (Germany) in Windhoek recently.

The two schools conducted a joint science experience project, as well as German classes.

The foreign learners are in Namibia for two weeks and will also visit different historical sites at coastal towns before departing back to Germany.

The learners said it was an incredible experience for them.

They said they have gained so much knowledge about the two nations and the world through the eyes of their peers and they will cherish all the amazing experiences.

“I have also become independent. I gained so much experience, independence and life-long knowledge from this exchange so far and it has helped me gain a newfound confidence in myself and my own personality, says Jean-Mare Seibeb, one of the students from Khomas High School.
