Description
Welcome to the University of Bristol German Society page!
Who are we?
Whether you study German at the university, in your free time, are German yourself, or are simply interested in the German language and culture, our society welcomes anyone interested in the German-speaking world!
As a society, we bring together all our favourite aspects of the language with...
- Fortnightly pub crawls, and the occasional quiz!
- Making and baking traditional German dishes and delicacies, such as Lebkuchen!
- German film nights at the Multimedia Centre.
- Weekly German speaking sessions, where you will meet people of all language levels!
- Volunteering scheme at a local school.
- Textbook-exchange scheme across the years to make life a little cheaper!
- Christmas formal in traditional German fashion - go all out and have fun with the outfits!
Get in touch and follow!
Come and find us at the freshers' fair on September 13th, and if you study German, you will see some of our team in your first lectures.
