18th January 2023
Dear Parents and Guardians,
The new Semester has started well. All but three students are on campus – two are at home recovering from illness and one is on tour with her orchestra. This is an indirect way of confirming to Parents and Guardians: if your child/our student is not at home or on tour with an orchestra, they are safely back at RBC!
I write with news of potential interest especially to German-speaking Parents and Guardians. RBC has been approached by Deutschlandfunk (ca. 6,2 million listeners) for RBC to host the live on-site program Agenda on Wednesday 18th of January from 10.08am to 11.30am (German time).
“Agenda” is a weekly 70-minute discussion program on current socio-political topics. The topic for this broadcast is “Lernziel Völkerverständigung – wenn Jugendliche aus 90 Nationen gemeinsam unterrichtet werden.” (The learning objective of international understanding – when young people from 90 countries are being taught together.)During a live discussion with three students as well as two members of staff in the Auditorium on Wednesday morning, moderator Frau Bettina Köster will explore how education for peace works at RBC. The discussion will be in German.
To make the discussion more varied and “anschaulich”, Köster will use small clips created by her colleague Frau Eva Götz earlier this week, having talked to students in a room of four, joined class(es) and a CAS activity.
For those who are interested and wish to listen by internet rather than by radio, you will find a link to the stream on: https://www.deutschlandfunk.de/agenda-104.html on Wednesday. There is a button in the right-hand top corner labeled “Live” which you can click to listen to Deutschlandfunk.Laurence Nodder
