Reading aloud is fun! Under this motto, the best readers from each of the five German learning groups in Year 7 competed against each other in the P30 Aula on March 26 2025. Following the thematic focus “Andere Welten”, the students had selected suitable passages from Ende's “Die unendliche Geschichte”, Kinney's “Gregs Tagebuch”, Bertram's “Biber undercover”, Carroll's “Alice im Wunderland” and Stevenson's “Die Schatzinsel” and performed them in a rousing manner. Each student then had to spontaneously read an unknown excerpt from Cornelia Funke's novel “Herr der Diebe”, and the students also mastered this challenge with aplomb.
The jury, made up of students from 10c, listened very carefully and paid particular attention to the reading technique, interpretation and choice of text. After the presentations, they briefly withdrew to deliberate and finally presented the eagerly awaited results. Third place went to Johanna (7b) and second place to Aarav (7c). The jury was most impressed by the performance of Adriana (7a), who now has the honor of representing our school at the Berlin UNESCO Schools Competition at the Berlin Wall Memorial in April. Congratulations!
