We are doing a wide range of different activities with our students on Thursday next week.

This will be our last day of this school year, before we sent them off on summer holidays.

The youngest students in CIPP:

Rupal will take Omar, Emma and Nils to Madsby Legepark in Fredericia along with the other youngest children from Kolding Realskole. They have to meet at the train station from Kolding at 8.00 am. The train leaves at 8.10 am.

The children will be back in Kolding at 12.25 pm, from where we go back to the school. School day ends at 12.50. The SFO will be open as usual.

If you choose to pick your child up at the train station, please remember to inform Rupal. The children have to wear practical clothes according to the weather. They will need to bring a small bag with a lunch box and a water bottle.

The Kiosk at Legeparken is open from 11.00 am, and the children can bring 25,- Dkr. max to buy sweets and ice cream. The kiosk does not sell proper food. 

Stage 2+3 from CIPP:

Mobile phones are to be placed in the drawer in the office before the students leave the school, and are to be collected from the office again when they return from Danfoss. The students have to bring a lunch box and a water bottle. It´s also a good idea to bring a little amount of pocket money, as it is possible to shop a little in their souvenir shop.

Going to Dybbøl Historical Centre

Thursday, March 25th, 2010

The visit fits perfectly with the curriculum in the 18th Century history for Lower Secondary and IGCSE.

The outing is by bus. The bus leaves from the school at 8.05, and we will be back at school around 14.00. There are no lessons afterwards. At Dybbøl Historical Centre, there is a kiosk, where the students can buy candy and ice cream. Please remember a packed lunch and something to drink.
