After a journey of around ten hours, the host families of the Georgianum welcomed the eleven musicians of the Emij Young Orchestra (EYO) and their teachers Véronique Camia and Jean-Sébastian Godéré from our twin town Elbeuf Sur Seine (Normandy) to the Georgianum shortly before midnight.
After a very short night, the EYO held an intensive rehearsal the next morning for the upcoming school concert in front of around 350 Year 6 and 7 pupils in the canteen.
The next day was all about active recreation, with a joint visit to the Schloss Dankern amusement park together with the pupils of the host families.
