In der Projektwoche im Juni 2026 flogen erstmals 30 Schülerinnen und Schüler mit 3 Lehrerinnen für 5 Tage nach London.
Hier ist der Erfahrungsbericht einer Schülerin dazu.
Postcards from London (by Smilla Sophie Bilz)
Travelling to London with thirty students and three teachers sounds exciting on paper. In reality, it also means crowded trains, rushed mornings, and the constant challenge of keeping everyone together.
The city welcomed us with weather that seemed unable to make up its mind. One moment, the sun reflected off the windows of passing buses; the next, we were reaching for our rain jackets. By the end of the week, carrying an extra layer had become second nature.
Our hostel was small, especially for eight students sharing a room. Suitcases were scattered on the floor, clothes hung from bed frames, and getting ready in the morning felt like a carefully coordinated operation. Somehow, it worked.
One of the highlights of the trip was Camden Market. Music drifted from open shop fronts while the smell of street food filled the narrow walkways. Every turn revealed something different: vintage clothing, handmade jewellery, colourful artwork, or food from all over the world. The area felt busy, chaotic, and full of life.
Only a short journey away, Covent Garden offered a completely different atmosphere. Street performers entertained gathered crowds beneath the glass-covered market hall, and people lingered at cafés, watching the city move around them. The contrast between the two places showed just how many different sides London has.
Looking back, it is not the famous landmarks I remember most clearly. It is the rain on the walk back to the hostel, the crowded Underground trains, the laughter in our room late at night, and the feeling that around every corner there was something new to discover. London was noisy, unpredictable, and sometimes exhausting - but never boring.
