Fun stations are planned for the yard, small Multi Purpose Room and 1st floor hallway. They are still a secret though!
Every class will have around 30 minutes to experience them. And dont worry - no contact between classes.
Some games and activities will also be held in the classroom.
Parents, could you please
- Prepare a Bavarian themed lunch (sausages, mashed potatoes etc.)
- If you have an Oktoberfest costume by chance then sure the students may wear it
