Festival of Lights at the Hundertwasser School

Over the past few weeks, the classes have been making fantastic lanterns. This also increased the pupils' anticipation of the Festival of Lights. Songs were practiced and could be heard from time to time in the playground.

On November 6, 2024, the colleagues of the Hundertwasser School welcomed around 120 people in the schoolyard. Families brought great treats for the buffet again this year.

St. Martin and the theme of helping were discussed in the classes. As a sign of help and support, the children and their parents could bring a donation for the "Gütersloher Tafel". Many parents responded to the request and brought donations. The donations will be handed over to the "Gütersloher Tafel" together with some selected children of the Hundertwasser school and Mrs. Hübner.

After the first song, which Mrs. Pohlmann accompanied with her guitar, the buffet was opened. While feasting, the families were able to chat about this and that.

Once again this year, the Hundertwasser School Support Association donated the light sticks for the self-made lanterns. Thank you for that! Once all the children had their lanterns ready, the lantern procession, once again accompanied by the police, could begin. The police escort was particularly exciting for the younger children.

Once again, it was a wonderful event with a great atmosphere and lots of smiling children's faces 🙂
