From March 27 till April 11, a group of 19 girls and boys, pupils of 3-rd and 4-th of the Collège de la Quintinie, supervised by three chaperons, went to Albion ( Michigan) for a stay of two weeks.
In the very warm reception added pleasure for our pupils to find their correspondents whom they had accommodated at home to Noisy le Roi, one year ago.
It was also opportunity, for each of them, to discover another culture, other ways of life... Finally it was also the occasion to try to express itself or to improve their English.
Numerous activities organized during the stay widely contributed to it:
-In group: visit of schools,universities - Soccer - Roller - visit of a cattle farm of bisons...
-With their host families , several pupils went in Washington, Chicago, Cleveland, even up to Florida...
Two strong points marked these two weeks:
-Reception in Albion's city hall, during which every pupil received hands of the Mayor, Mister Wheaton, Freeman's " Certificate " of the City.
-Handling of the Euro board, which have been realized by the Rond-Point, to the Sistership Committee of Albion.
Strong, exceptional moments, big intensity. This stay, in an environment marked with other cultural aspects and other ways of life, will stay, for all these young people, rich in unforgettable recollections and will mark the beginning of new bonds of friendship.
