“Virtual Learning House” during the Corona Crisis 2021 – Version 2.0!

During the first lockdown in the spring of 2020, everyday life on Campus as we knew it changed. During the duration of the Corona pandemic, we had to learn to maintain our valued relationships, togetherness, movement, and creativity while keeping the Bavarian curriculum in mind… at a distance... Not an easy task!
We were extremely proud to have established a reliable online system with MS Teams from the very beginning while not losing sight of data protection. Just as we did last spring du...

Not being allowed to come to the learning house any more… not only does that mean that “normal lessons" are not possible, but it also means that our daily life on Campus as we know it—seeing friends, sharing experiences, experimenting, fun at breaks, lunch in the Oasis—ceased from one day to the next. Our JVC learning partners miss Anja and the kitchen team, and the once bustling Oasis is strange and empty.
So everyone from the JVC staff to the kitchen team to the Parents' Associatio...

Hands-on! Wir gestalten unseren neuen Fitnessraum THE CORE!

Im Rahmen des Bewegungsunterrichts aller Lerngruppen des Gymnasiums arbeiteten die Lernpartner gemeinsam - allerdings selbstverständ-lich unter fachlicher Anleitung - an der Fertigstellung des neuen Fitnessraums im UG2 mit dem Namen The Core.
Um diesen neuen Sportraum so schnell wie möglich den nötigen Feinschliff zu geben und ihn dann auch eröffnen bzw. nutzen zu können, konnten die Lernpartner auf eigenen Wunsch bei den finalen Arbeiten mithelfen und durch diese Zusammenarbeit überd...

Diamanten Kick-off

Mitte November fand unser Diamanten-Kick-Off statt. Dieser soll den Kindern per se dabei helfen, sich gänzlich in die neue Rolle eines Viertklässlers einzufinden. Wir begannen den Tag mit einem leckeren Brunch in der Oase. Anschließend zogen sich die Lerngruppen in ihre Klassenzimmer zurück, wo die Kinder dann die Möglichkeit hatten spezifische Fragen zu stellen. Dieses Jahr hatten die Kinder sogar das erste Mal die Möglichkeit durch einen echten „Expertenbericht“, Erfahrungen von Fün...

Unser PCB-Raum am Campus

Noch vor den Herbstferien konnte unser neuer Fachraum für die Naturwissenschaften Physik, Chemie und Biologie (kurz PCB-Raum) im ersten Untergeschoss fertiggestellt werden. Einblicke in aktuelle Forschungsgebiete, das Aufgreifen relevanter Umweltaspekte, die Klärung von Fragen zu weltweiten Grundstoff- oder Energieversorgungsproblematiken aber auch die Exploration grundlegender Aspekte der Basis allen Lebens sowohl aus biologi...

Jules Verne Explorers on Adventure Island

Over the past few weeks, we have been very excited in the Kindergarten to see the Adventure Island being constructed. The children have been watching and waiting for adventure, hence the name! Our minis can now explore this environment for themselves with all of their senses. Having this dedicated space will provide opportunities for physical activity, freedom and movement, which all contribute to a healthy and active lifestyle and a sense of well-being.
The outdoor area for Kindergarteners o...

Trusting in Success: Testimonial from a Grammar School Student after the JVC Elementary School

Our daughter, Tonia Ostermann, attended the Jules Verne Elementary School between 2014 and 2018. During the experience of lockdown and homeschooling in particular, we fondly think back to the time at Jules Verne Campus with gratitude. Not only did our child come home from school every day happy and beaming for four years, but in the difficult phase after that, it became clear how valuable the Jules Verne approach is with the pedagogical emphasis on "learning to learn," "learning should be fun," ...

DIVERSITY IN MOTION

We have a new annual theme for 2020/2021: Diversity in Motion. When George Floyd was needlessly killed by police officers, and just recently, when in my home state of Wisconsin, Jacob Black was shot seven times in the back, followed by a further two deaths in a riot, it reconfirms that diversity feels right, right now. Diversity needs to move forward. This is in harmony with our values at Jules Verne Campus, in harmony with the uncertain times now. How can we help children—little ones in the K...

Successful trial lessons–even during the Corona crisis!

The Corona crisis has limited us in many ways this school year: on-site lessons under normal conditions, our internal preparation for the trial lessons, e.g. in the diamond holiday course, as well as other types of external tuition were not possible due to the contact limitations.
Therefore, we are extraordinarily proud of our Jules Verne learning partners in grade 4 who participated in the trial lessons in various external secondary schools with the aim to be accepted (4 of them for Realschu...
