A schoolday

To parents and legal guardians and our students

We wish you a relaxing holiday and a great summer! Everyone needs relaxation and, thanks to the loosened infection protection, they can once again pursue familiar and beloved everyday activities, hobbies and contacts.

After the holidays, we will probably start the school year “normally” if the low infection rates are maintained. But we can all contribute to this by acting responsibly!

At this point you can always inform yourself about the latest status! About a week before the first day of school in the new school year, all important information is published here.

Since the school is not always manned, you can always reach us in urgent cases via verwaltung@schule-am-schwalbenweg.herne.de

Please write as precisely as possible what your request is and give us, in addition to your sender email, other contact details (telephone number) at which we can reach you.

Stay / stay healthy!

For the staff and employees

The current month - as a word card, laid out by oneself and as a gesture is searched for. The planning for the school day is the same. In the weekly plan there are worksheets (here: writing numbers) ... In the "weekly plan", the students receive individual tasks with which content from the areas of reading, writing, arithmetic and perception can be repeated and consolidated. At the same time, the students practice working independently, at their workplace organize and follow a work plan.
