Additional Programmes
Spaces for talents, interests and curiosity
School should be more than a curriculum. Musical, hands-on, creative, athletic — children only discover their talents when the space is there for it. What that space looks like at Rietberg, you'll read on the next lines.
Our additional programmes aren't extras but an integral part of our educational concept. In the studio, workshop, music room or on the sports field, children discover sides of themselves that often stay hidden in classical lessons.
In the studio, children find what regular lessons often lack: time for concentration on a single thing. Hours of painting, kneading, building — without a goal beyond the doing itself. These phases aren't ‚just play' but real education.
These spaces are guided by professionals: artists, musicians, craftspeople who teach their craft. So children don't learn superficially but with real ambition — and often discover talents that carry a lifetime.
These programmes are included in tuition — no extra costs, no club registration. We believe: education is more than maths and German. Talents grow where children have time and space to discover them.
