Open house day at our school – come and see !

Every year in January our school opens its doors for everybody who is interested, especially for those kids who would like to attend the Gymnasium Oschersleben in the near future.

You can see the rooms, get to know teachers and the subjects they teach here. Furthermore, you can also see what kinds of after school activities are offered. We have a theater club, a school band, different sports clubs and the school newspaper. They all meet regularly and involve students individually.

On 18^th January, our open house day started with a theater performance in the school building in Lindenstraße 1. Our principal held a speech in the assembly hall and welcomed all visitors. Afterwards everyone was invited to change the school buildings and get active in the other house. Here you could join experiments in the science department. Teachers and volunteering students helped the visiting kids in the different projects. In the rooms presenting the different languages, taught at our school, you were able to try traditional dishes like

Bruschetta

Crepes.

In English you could get creative and design your own bookmark in the style of the traditional Australian dot paintings. In the rooms of social studies, you were allowed to take part in the elections and cast a vote – isn’t that cool? In Geography you could work on some puzzles and quizzes on Germany. If you are interested in music, you could also watch our school band performing different popular hits. But that was just a small insight into the various offers on this day.

A lot of parents and their children visited our school this year, the atmosphere was great and you could see that everyone involved was proud and happy to present their rooms, projects and interests. We are already looking forward to next year’s open house day – so come along and see how you can help shape the future of the school yourself.
