16 German School Pupils From The Same Class All Die On Board Doomed Germanwings Flight
A class of 16 German school pupils and two teachers are among the victims of the doomed Germanwings Airbus A320 which crashed in the French Alps today, killing all 150 people aboard.
The students - all of whom are understood to be in their teens - were pupils at the English-speaking Joseph-Koenig-Gymnasium in Haltern-am-See, not far from the city of Dusseldorf.
The Year 10 pupils were returning home from a week-long exchange programme in Barcelona at the time of the disaster, which took place in a remote region of the French Alps en route from Spain to Germany.
