Coach A had a good day, visiting the Music museum and seeing an array of musical mechanical instruments. The time in Rudesheim was spent eating ice cream and pupils buying gifts for family. We also visited the Lorelei Rock where we able to take photos of the statue of the maiden who legend has it, lured seamen to their deaths. Pupils have also enjoyed practising their German and are completing their booklets with enthusiasm!
