I am a trained dancer in Hip Hop, Bollywood and Classical Indian Dance. For the last 10 years, I have been teaching various forms of dance in academies and institutions like the French Embassy School or the Japanese Expats Group. I like teaching at DSND and would love to continue to work here for many more years.

I am a former water polo player, with all round passion for sports. Being a FINA swimming instructor and fitness trainer, I love to teach the younger generation. The Motto I try to pass on to them is “ Sport is a way of life”.

It's full on energy after the summer break for the kids in the secondary I Taekwondo AG.

This semester the school offered the drum workshop. Curious to learn something we participated. Although not everyone could play a percussion instrument before, it is fun. With our teacher Abin we practice different rhythms, get to know new instruments and drum together. But that doesn't mean that we always play the drums. Sometimes we just use our bodies or clap a rhythm.

Together or alone, with or without guidance, we write stories, diaries, love letters, recipes, ... and everything else that absolutely needs to be written down.

For this purpose we meet every Tuesday in the 8th lesson.

Sometimes we do research on the internet, sometimes we just need to have a long chat, while others retire to write because there's a great story... well, just come around.

Since I joined the DSND in the second grade I went to the parkour AG. Due to corona the CCA could not take place for a while, but I am happy that Mr. V´s CCA is back. I am now in the sixth grade and I still like the CCA as much as before, because we always get to learn and try out new things. At the school festival we have the chance to show what we can do. We get to impress the parents with flips, round off’s, hand stands, tuck jumps and back handsprings.

The sport CCA was conducted by Mrs Spangenberg and her son Robin. We were allowed to choose the games during the cooler season. We played basketball, soccer and volleyball. We practiced the different techniques and because our group was very small we played only a few matches. During the hot season we swim. The sport CCA helps me to improve my marks for sports because I am getting the chance to practice things we did in class . I like to play games during recess which I can continue during sports CCA.

The school band is an integral part of every DSND school event, from theatre plays to board exam ceremony. We have rehearsal every Monday afternoon and try our hands on western music, pop and rock. Under Mrs. Demeyere's observant and critical eyes we turn from hobby musicians to real musicians, never losing our passion for music. Did you get curious? We are always ready to jam, come over, join us. We are looking forward to your participation.

The Art and Camera AG is existing in this form for the first year, except techniques for camera, photo shootings, writing a film script and attempts to make movies, many students also painted intensively, especially in the premises of the school itself by painting flying elements in the upper section of the second floor.

Younger students had a special interest, to make a never ending spontaneous film, to create helmets made out of plaster for carnival or to create objects in clay. Furthermore drawing and painting techniques have been studied and applied very accurately.

All in all the AG is an important creative and artistic offer, that is welcomed by the students and furthermore serves the school in supporting as far as possible the documentation of events.
