1st German School in Kiev to open soon! 
At long last a German school will open its doors in Kiev on 1 September 2008! Located in the centre of Kiev, the school's programme will follow the concept of "encounter" or "Begegnung" - giving German students the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the Ukrainian language and culture by studying with Ukrainian and students from other nations, who are interested in the German language and culture. The school will start at elementary level with two classes for Years 1 to 4 (from age 6 to 10). Years 1 and 2 and Years 3 and 4 will be taught together initially. Subjects will mostly be taught by native German teachers, with teachers from Ukraine for the Ukrainian part of the curriculum. In years to come the school will gradually expand into secondary level.
The opening of the German School in Kiev is based on an initiative of committed parents, who founded a school association in the autumn of 2007. The German and Austrian Embassies support this project.
Parents who wish to enrol their children at the German-Ukrainian "Begegnungsschule" are invited to send in their applications a.s.a.p. Further information and application forms can be found on www.deutscheschule.kiev.ua |
