Another successful trip for NULC students

Hallo von Berlin!

Thirty-three A Level students from Newcastle-under-Lyme College (NULC) went to Berlin last week on a History trip.

Much of the focus was to visit historical landmarks and museums. Second World War Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp, Plotzender Prison and Wannsee Conference were on the agenda as well as the Topography of Terror Museum (Gestapo).

Then, the students travelled back to Cold War times with the famous Checkpoint Charlie with its museum and the Eastern Secret Service Offices now Stasi Museum.  Many of the students and at least one member of staff  became addicted to Brotwurst and berliners (doughnuts).

Many thanks to Lisa Browne (Subject Leader for History) for organising such a wonderful trip. Also thanks to Christopher Mcquillan (History Lecturer) and Michaël Lacoult (Subject Leader for French) who had the pleasure to accompany the lucky thirty-three ‘Berliners for a week’. The students had a really good time in the German Capital and the visits have been extremely interesting with some excellent guided tours. A very memorable experience for students as well as lecturers!

Auf Wiedersehen!
