DAY 9

Day 9 was spent in school itself, and were a great way for the students to learn a little more about the two different cultures.

The first two hours, 9:00-11:00 a.m, were allotted for the project work. We were divided into groups of six, and each group was given a topic on which they had to create a presentation. We were given the junior school computer lab for research work. A few groups went around taking interviews of the school staff, non-teaching staff and the students. 

At 11:30 a.m, we started cooking for an intercultural lunch. The Indian and German groups made their separate cuisines for everybody to taste.

The first Indian group made Vegetable Pulav and the second group made an Indian dessert, 'Shahi Tukda'. The ingredients were brought by the students and the cutlery was given by the school in the Home Science laboratory.  Similarly, the Germans made roast potatoes and pancakes. 

  The intercultural cooking helped us interact a little better with each other and at the same time learn the other's culture.  It was a fun-filled experience as we all got together and cooked for each other. Our junior school headmistress Mrs. Shobha was called for the lunch too.

After lunch we were given instructions for the next day's trip to Srisailam and left early as it was going to be a very early morning the next day.
