A group of learning partner’s from the MS 1/2 class started to sell vitamin bombs to the ISN community!
The “Sweet and Sour” group sells fruit kebabs, sweet and sour fruit salad and other sweet specialities. The best thing is that your lunch is made in front of your eyes and that the lp’s are going to donate the profit to the SOS- Kinderdörfer and WWF charity organisations.
The customers have choices between the sweetest and most delicious fruit creations you can dream of. They can also create their own combinations. Just follow the tasty, delicious and sweet smell and you reach the “Sweet and Sour” stall!

Musical Rythms and drum making with Doris!
by Amandine (MS1 - grade 6)
Big, small and colourful are the drums that MS1/2 are making. Every Friday is a new experience for the Middle school learning partners as they are creating drums in Doris’ Creative Arts class for the summer break show.
The lp`s are working in pairs or individually creating a drum. Doris is using a very simple technique to build the drums. You first have to form some rolls from clay and put them on top of each other, but you have to join the rolls with each other, so that no air can come in while Doris bakes the drums in a kiln, otherwise the drums would collapse. After the drums dried out you can paint them in any colour you want. Then, Doris bakes the drums at a temperature of 1200°C.
Today we covered our drums with leather, to produce sound. In our music lessons we are practicing our rhythms for the summer break show. Next week we will actually use our drums. I will update you on our progress and add some pictures of our musical instruments.

New games room
by Dan (PY5)In about two weeks time the library/welcome room area will be changed into a new games room. It will have a ping pong table, a baby foot soccer table game and a chess table, but the room will still have the library resource books in it. These books and resources will move to the Lern atelier. On Wednesday, 6 June, they started to put new shelves into the lern atelier/media center.

Dolls out or not?
By Leatitia Gerbes (MS2)
Are dolls in or out? That is a really good question. I have asked some people from the kinder garten, the PY 1/2 and some older students and teachers if they play or have played with puppets and dolls.
All the little girls from the kinder garten or the PY 1/2 are playing with dolls. Some from the older classes haven’t played with dolls but the most have played with them at some time. Even most of the boys have played with them sometimes.
So to answer this question I think dolls are still very much in if you are younger.
