The School Football Finals

On the 6th October we`ve got so far : ten kids from the third and fourth grades are travelling with Ms Ackershot to the final! On the sport field at Osterholz the best footballers in Bremen`s primary schools met for the last round of the championship.
In the end we finished in ninth place. With over fifty schools taking part, this was an awesome result. Congratulations!

First Round of the Primary School Football Championship

Our school football team competed today against ten other school teams.In the end it came down to penalties and after the first round we are still in the competition!This Thursday it`s the finals with the ten best Bremen and Bremerhaven primary school teams at the Schevemoor playing fields.

We`re all keeping our fingers crossed for our team and Ms Ackershot, their trainer!

For a while now a new visitor has been causing mayhem in the playground.This cat seems to have made itself at home here with all the children. Although we have made a big effort to find out , we still don`t know where she comes from or whose cat she really is. However much they love her though, all the kids have to follow some ground rules ; the cat must stay outside, no one is allowed to feed her and, when she goes off into the bushes, they must accept that she wants to be left in peace.

Lots of kids love this cat and she gets lots of strokes and attention!

15 Years `Bärenhöhle`

The Bärenhöhle has been part of our school now for fifteen years. In the beginning there were just twelve children in before and after school care. Of course, with such a small group they also did the cooking themselves.

Every year more and more parents wanted to take advantage of the service offered and everyone involved; the school club, the head teacher and the day care staff had to adapt the concept to meet the increasing demand. They managed to overcome most of the problems that arose and today there are seventy children using the Bärenhöhle day care facility, there are five staff members to look after the kids and they don`t have to do their own cooking anymore! -the meals are supplied by `Ratatouille`.

To celebrate 15 years of the `Bärenhöhle` seventy very excited children went to `Kinder Leo`s Play Paradise` A wonderful morning of playing and climbing instead of math and german!

Warmest congratulations and heartfelt thanks to the School Club and all the day care staff!

4b in the Town Hall and the Schütting

On Thursday, the 15th 4b`s class orchestra had two big appearances.First, they went to the Town Hall (Rathaus) where the reading helpers of the Annaliese Loose-Hartke Foundation were honoured to hear the first performance.

Then they all went across the marketplace to the Schütting House where the Kiwanis Club Bremen were holding a prize giving ceremony, for which 4b provided the musical programme. Ms van der Bent had prepared the class very well and everything went perfectly as shown by the enthusiastic response from the audience.
