SCHOOL and LESSONS

Pupils have been in different English lessons. They have been interviewed by beginners and acted out Romeo and Juliet with the 6th form. They have worked on their booklets and have taken part in a marketing lesson, a Russian cooking lesson, a Geography lesson and PE and French lessons. PE lessons are mixed here.

They have commented on discipline and the lack of dress code for teachers and also experienced the more traditional teaching equipment here in Kronwerk.

MORE ANOTHER DAY!

Die Sonne scheint!

Sunshine and icecream.

WIR HABEN DEUTSCH GEREDET

Kelly, Kirsty and Emily thanked Herr Robin for his speech and for the friendly welcome. They should be congratulated for their German and their courage!

TOWN HALL

We were officially welcomed by Herr Robin on behalf of the mayor. There were drinks and snacks, an opportunity to see the room where you get married and we signed the guest book with our new Rendsburg pens!

TOUR OF SCHOOL

Food from the canteen - made at cost by parents who volunteer to provide food four times a week.



All A level leavers leave their mark somewhere in the school with some sort of installation or art or "monument".




Lots of pupils cycle to school.





The pillars and walls have been painted and decorated by pupils to show a sense of ownership and to make the school cheerful and bright. Our pupils were very taken with this idea!!
