UPDATE: Earlier Release
<Please scroll down for English version>
Liebe Eltern und Erziehungsberechtigte,
aufgrund der aktuellen Wetterwarnung in unserer Region und im Interesse der Sicherheit aller Schülerinnen und Schüler sowie Mitarbeitenden beenden wir den Unterricht und das Kindergartenprogramm heute vorzeitig um 12:55 Uhr. Die Schulbusse werden das Schulgelände um 13:05 Uhr verlassen.
Um eine ungefähre Ankunftszeit an Ihrer Haltestelle zu ermitteln, bitten wir Sie, sich an den Zeiten der regulären Busroute zu orientieren.
Wenn Ihr Kind nicht mit dem Bus fährt, holen Sie es bitte um 12:55 Uhr ab.
Sollte sich die Wettersituation so entwickeln, dass es erforderlich ist, werden wir selbstverständlich alle Schülerinnen und Schüler sicher in den Gebäuden behalten und Schutz im Gebäude gewährleisten, bis eine sichere Situation gegeben ist.
Falls Sie aufgrund von Verkehr oder Wetter nicht genau um 12:55 Uhr zur Abholung eintreffen können, werden wir die Kinder weiterhin in den jeweiligen Gebäuden – Preschool, Elementary School und im Hauptgebäude – betreuen und im Gebäude lassen, bis Sie sicher an der Schule angekommen sind, um Ihr Kind abzuholen.
Bitte fahren Sie vorsichtig, versuchen Sie jedoch so zeitnah wie möglich zur Schule zu kommen, da wir bemüht sind, die Gebäude für die Sicherheit aller Beteiligten so bald wie möglich nach 12:55 Uhr zu leeren.
Sollte es zu Verzögerungen bei der Abfahrt der Schulbusse kommen, werden wir Sie selbstverständlich umgehend mit einem weiteren Update informieren.
Wir danken Ihnen für Ihr Verständnis und wünschen Ihnen und Ihrer Familie, dass Sie gut und sicher durch das heutige Wetter kommen.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Die Schulleitung

Dear Parents and Guardians,
Due to the severe weather alert in our region, and in the interest of the safety of all students and staff, classes and the preschool program will end early today at 12:55 pm. School buses will depart campus at 1:05 pm.
To estimate the approximate arrival time at your bus stop, please refer to the times listed on the regular bus route schedule.
If your child does not ride the bus please pick them up at 12:55pm.
If the situation warrants it, we will certainly keep all students safely sheltered inside the buildings and ensure everyone remains safe until conditions allow otherwise.
If you happen to be delayed in traffic or by the weather and cannot arrive exactly at 12:55 pm for pickup, students will remain inside their respective buildings - Preschool, Elementary School, and the Main Building - and will be supervised until you arrive safely to pick up your child.
Please drive carefully and do your best to be on time, as we are for everyone’s safety hoping to have the buildings cleared as soon as possible after 12:55 pm.
If bus departures are delayed, we will certainly provide another update promptly.
Thank you for your understanding. We wish everyone a safe afternoon and hope you stay safe during the weather.
Kind regards,
School Leadership
Preschool: World Day of the Book 2018
Dear Parents,
UNSECO established the World Book Day on April 26, 1995 to be celebrated annually as a worldwide holiday celebrating reading books at home and in school. In order to get children interested in enjoying children's books, the activities around World Book Day are of particular importance.
Therefore, we have two activities planned at the Preschool for the World Book Day. On April 11th 2018 at 9:30 am, we will have a reading festival in our Preschool. Each teacher presents a picture book to all children in our main hall, introducing all children to different picture books and authors. They can then choose which book they would like to look at and which book they like to be read to. Each child can go to any of the Preschool groups. To make it really cozy, we will have juice and a small snack.
On April 26, 2018, we will have a picture exhibition in our Preschool starting at 8 am. In the week before the exhibition, the Preschool teachers will read a popular children’s book in their respective groups, and talk about the story in the book with the children. We will also provide a variety of painting materials like colored pencils, markers, paint brushes and paint colors, paper etc. to the children. The children are encouraged to paint a picture of what they like best in the story and can give their imagination free reign. You are cordially invited to look at the pictures of your children about the story they listened to. The finished paintings are exhibited in front of the home rooms of your classroom group.
Each group will receive a picture book as a reward after the exhibition.
We look forward to the participation of all children and the ideas and thoughts that they will express in their piece of art.
Best regards,
Your Preschool Team
