What is Batman actually doing in a forest in the south of England on a unicorn?
Class 8b and nine teachers from our school were able to get to the bottom of this and other exciting questions in a workshop at the Tobit company in Ahaus on September 2. In addition to information and exercises on data-safe prompting, avoiding false results and generating artificial images when using AI, the program also included a tour of TOBITTOWN. In a next step, the other Year 8 classes and the school community will now benefit from the group's experiences.

Enrolment of the new year 5

Last Wednesday, we welcomed 92 new pupils and their parents to the school community! After an enrolment service in St. Anthony's Church, principal Ms. Preuß welcomed the new Year 5 pupils and their parents in the school playground. The pupils then went to their classes, where there were already some organizational matters and a lot of getting to know each other on the agenda. During this time, the parents were informed about various topics at our school: Media education, use of iPads, digital school... There was also plenty of time to get to know each other and chat over coffee and cookies.

Year 6 class trip to Borkum

(from May 6 - 8, 2024)
At the beginning of May, the entire Year 6 class traveled to Borkum to experience their long-awaited class trip. With 8 accompanying teachers, 6a, 6b, 6c and 6d set off early on Monday. We took the ferry to Borkum in bright sunshine but not quite as hot temperatures. Once there, we moved into our rooms in the youth hostel. During the three days, we were able to enjoy mudflat walks, visits to the town and beach and a bit of sightseeing. Another highlight was the inter-class soccer tournament, in which students competed against their teachers. It was a great trip!
