, the school principal thinks the numbers could be increased.

This

report aims to summarise the views of

sites. In conclusion, we can say that the majority of the

participants

were generally satisfied with the study holiday,

In particular

, students should be encouraged to stay with host families and the school should be requested to improve its catering arrangements and review its educational and cultural programme.
