(For the oral exam part of the GCSE German paper) - What did you do in the school holidays? (Was hast du waehrend der Schulferien gemacht?)

At the beginning of the holidays, I spent a week in Germany with my family. We visited Berlin and stayed in a hotel near Alexanderplatz in the East. What I found great was the opportunity to practise and improve my German. It was lucky that I could speak German, because my parents only speak English. At the end of the holidays, I spent a weekend at home. I visited my friends and played tennis with them. It was super to relax a bit before school started again! (Am Anfang der Ferien habe ich ich eine Woche mit meiner Familie in Deutschland verbracht. Wir haben Berlin besucht und in einem Hotel in der Nahe des Alexanderplatz im Osten uebernachtet. Was ich toll gefunden habe, war die Gelegenheit, mein Deutsch zu ueben und verbessern. Zum Glueck konnte ich Deutsch sprechen, weil meine Eltern nur Englisch sprechen koennen!  Am Ende der Ferien habe ich ein Wochenende zu Hause verbracht. Ich habe meine Freunde besucht und Tennis mit ihnen gespielt. Es war richtig grossartig, mich vor dem Schulbeginn ein bisschen zu entspannen.
