Our partner schools in the last two Comenius projects (2010-2012: "Cuculus-together into the future", 2013-2015: "Living together - the place of diversity") are in Marseille, Istanbul, Amsterdam. In each country 32 children were traveling from four countries and formed an international school class for one week . Furthermore, we have the project of a school partnership in Kinshasa / Congo with the City Manager of the City of Dortmund, Mr Stüdemann. The "Living in diversity" has in our school a top priority, and everything can be deduced from there: So for example, refugees with little knowledge of German find diverse support on their way to school by dedicated children and teachers.
