Teamwork was the order of the day when pupils conducted questionnaires to find out about attitudes to organic food.

T is for Tandem partners
Although GPC can't take place in 2020, the selected pupils have been able to connect with German peers through PAD's 'Tandemweltweit' initiative. Based on this project, we then ran webinars to develop these connections.
#AtoZofGPC #UKGCSummer @kmkpad
Introductions were made, games were played and collaborations began this week with another round of webinars to introduce UK-German Tandem-partners to each other. Well done to everyone who took part - we're looking forward to hearing how your partnerships develop!
R is for Reisen
Travel is a life-changing experience for many GPC participants: "I have not travelled much so to immerse myself in a culture I had only seen through textbooks was incredible. I feel much more open & internationally minded." Edward, 2018

Q is for quality time
"Every morning you would look forward to seeing everyone at school, and we would often all meet up after school to go places such as the 'Freibad'. Group excursions brought us closer together." Ella, 2019
