Oktoberfest Celebration
The seventh and eighth grade students in Frau Sternig’s German classes recently celebrated their own Oktoberfest, a celebration that started with the wedding of Prince Ludwig of Bavaria and Princess Therese of Munich in 1810. Over 5 million people come to Munich every year for the festivities.
The celebration at Holy Angels was a little more subdued, however, the students shared some traditional German foods, sang some songs, and danced the polka as they recalled Oktoberfest.
