In the “Reading Pirates” CCA, children joyfully discover the fun of reading and storytelling. Together, they dive into exciting stories and experience how enjoyable books can be.

In the football intensive CCA, the focus is on structured practice, technique, and teamwork. The students improve their football skills with great commitment while taking part in challenging and motivating training sessions and matches.

In our sessions, we bring origami to life through creations children truly connect with—starting with a charming origami bookmark for our book-loving group. They enthusiastically explore different paper sizes, colours, and prints, crafting pieces inspired by nature, from aquatic life and garden landscapes to birds, pandas, dogs, cats, and even 3D cubes.

The children create imaginative paper Easter eggs that can be opened with a simple movement.As they move them, a sweet little chick appears—combining hands-on creativity with a delightful surprise!

How much fun the Hip-Hop Club is becomes clear in Leandra’s words:

“I enjoy hip hop because you move a lot.”

My name is Dr. Maneet Kaur, and I am a freelance textile researcher and artist, trained at Kala Bhavan in Santiniketan – Visva-Bharati University in West Bengal, founded by Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore. I currently live and work in Delhi, where I pursue my passion for art and craft through a variety of creative practices.

For one year, I had the special opportunity to take part as a research fellow in seven intensive workshops led by seven Japanese sensei – supported by the Japan Foundation and the Ishibashi Foundation. These experiences have significantly shaped my artistic journey and have sustainably strengthened my commitment to practical, intercultural learning.

In my courses with children, I love exploring the endless possibilities of paper – from origami and paper folding to making bookmarks and artistic paper cutting. We use a wide variety of paper types and sizes, often in combination with thread, to create imaginative and creative projects.

Working with children brings me great joy, as I am convinced that paper-based art offers far more than mere artistic expression. It helps:

· Develop fine motor skills – through cutting, folding, and shaping,

· Foster creativity – by giving children space to freely express themselves,

· Strengthen problem-solving skills – as they learn to think flexibly and respond creatively to challenges.

I care deeply about encouraging creativity and curiosity in young minds, and I look forward to embarking on an inspiring, joyful journey into the world of art together with your children.

Vaulting over the box and floor exercises are especially fun for the students! Vikash Sharma ensures that they learn the basics in a playful and engaging way.

In the primary school Badminton Club, students learn the basics of Badminton while having lots of fun. Through playful practice, they improve their coordination, reaction skills, and team spirit.

The students enthusiastically practise the basic techniques, play precise passes and try to score as many goals as possible.

In the Hip-Hop CCA, our students discover movement, rhythm, and creative expression with joy.

Braiding colourful bracelets with rubber bands isn't just fun for the students – it gets really exciting when they start to create their own patterns and designs.

Our primary school students diligently practice the Ap Chagi, one of the basic kicks in Taekwondo.  Mastering the Ap Chagi provides a solid foundation for learning more complex Taekwondo techniques. Speed, balance and precision are crucial for proper execution. Each training session improves strength, sharpens reflexes, and builds confidence in the technique.  

‘It's great that we sometimes read books together and then craft something out of that story. It helps me to understand the content better and is a lot of fun.’

The painting and handicrafts CCA also experiments with different techniques. The students are thrilled when they bring pictures to life with simple tools.  Here, for example, with a night painting where they can illuminate individual areas with a painted torch!

Whether Easter eggs, bookmarks or beautiful window pictures, the students work with great concentration! Once the borders are done, the hardest part is over, because the colour fillings are very easy to apply. The transparent, bright colours are particularly beautiful and will soon be decorating the children's rooms.

Whether typical Indian games such as ‘Pitthu’ and ‘Carrom’ or the universally loved classics such as ‘Ludo’, the students have great fun and learn the basics of playing together in a playful way.  They particularly appreciate the mixture of movement games and board games - it's a great way to let off steam!

Our CCA mentor Akash teaches primary school students the basics of football in a playful way. The pupils enthusiastically practise scoring goals, passing the ball to each other and defending it against opponents.

For Eliphas, it's all about technique: ‘I just want to learn to play football’. 

Games are played in the World of Games CCA! Mrs Schach not only provides change with various games, but also ensures that everyone has lots of fun.

The children enjoy working creatively and creating small works of art.  After burning and colouring, they are proudly presented at home!

My name is Sandra and as a mum of 3 children, my aim is to inspire children to learn, awaken their curiosity and encourage them to question and explore things for themselves.

In my academic career, I have learnt how much more constructive it is to look at issues from different perspectives and to combine knowledge from individual disciplines in order to gain new insights. I also pursue this interdisciplinary approach in my working group ‘Art World Journey’.

During Sparring, the steps, kicks and sequences learnt are put into practice. This makes for a lot of fun and excitement.

Our primary school pupils learn how to handle the ball in a playful way!

During the last class, our students created with lots of enthusiasm fantastic loom - as friendship bands, fashion jewelry or superhero bands.

Our primary school students practice flexibility and bounce!

Playing games is fun and relaxing! In the AG we meet to play board and card games together. Every week we get to know a new game. This game either comes from the school's large game collection or the children bring their own game and present it to the others. There is often time afterwards to play favorite games with their friends. 

The reading pirates feel right at home in the small elementary school library. As soon as everyone has found a place on the sofa, they're ready to go!

We have a lot of reading material on the bookshelves and usually manage to get to know a children's book from beginning to end. The series "Was ist was?" and "Greg's Tagebuch" as well as the many picture books are also very popular with our little readers.

However, the stories about the girl Conni are particularly popular. When Conni once lost her mother in a large department store, the children followed the search for and recovery of Conni's mother in the children's department with great interest........
Afterwards, almost all the children talked about their own experiences in similar situations.

The younger children tend to enjoy listening and the older ones take turns reading aloud from each chapter.

Full of enthusiasm the primary students came back after the summer break to the Taekwondo CCA

In the CCA 'Little Musicians' we have learnt a lot and sang songs. We have learnt a lot of new songs.
Some songs we have to sing with a partner and some songs without a partner.
The teacher plays music on the piano and we practice.

The CCA is called Cardboard architects and takes place every Thursday afternoon. Together with Mrs. Arens-Klein we make life-size furniture out of cardboard. Everyone had to bring materials: Bottles, cardboard boxes and newspapers. We thought about how everything could fit together and started building.
The result was a beautiful and cozy sofa for the reading corner, on which three children can sit without any problems.
I really liked the fact that everyone worked together and searched for solutions and that we were allowed let off our creativity. We had a lot of fun and laughed a lot together.
Let's see what we build next!
