24 middle and high school German students traveled with teachers Herr Sidwell, Frau O'Hara and Herr Chiara to Massapequa High School to take part in the annual Sprachfest event and competition.
This event is hosted each year by the officers and members of the Long Island chapter of the American Association of Teachers of German (AATG). Students competed against other Long Island students in their knowledge of German language, culture, music, poetry, art and baking. Several students won ribbons for their outstanding performances!
The attendees were treated to traditional Schuhplattler dancing from the Original Enzian Schuhplattler group and were greeted by the Princesses of the Plattduetsche Volksfest Vereen of Garden City.
