Fast forward to an exchange program in high school when I was 16. The school I attended in Germany had primary and middle attached to it, and we moved throughout the entire building for various classes. Since we (the exchange students) were very elementary in our language skills, we spent a portion of the day with elementary school students for grammar lessons. I recall being blown away that students were allowed to pull out snacks at any time they damn well pleased. They ate during class and cleaned up after themselves. No biggie. No one batted an eye.

My German high school started around 8 am and ran till 1 PM.   We were dismissed for about 20 minutes at 10:40 for Pausebrot as I recall (recess bread!)   We ran to the shop across the street and bought rolls or pastries if we had the money.  Or ate buttered cheese with bread.

At 1 PM we all walked home or were picked up by our parents and ate the big midday meal.  Then usually back to school 3 to 5 for "specials".[/quote]
