Nationwide Reading day

Dear parents, dear colleagues, dear members of the school community,

On Friday, 17.11.2023, the nationwide “Reading Day” will take place in Germany. Throughout Germany, the children read, laugh, ask questions, and listen with anticipation. As in previous years, the German School Nairobi is once again taking part in this wonderful tradition and has also officially entered the list of participating schools for the first time this year.

For the Reading Day, we are looking for readers who would like to read something to the classes – also possibly linked to a creative activity.

The reading hours will be held on Friday, 17.11.2023, from 9.40 – 11.15hrs on the premises of the German school.

Please contact Mr. Tonak (john.tonak@germanschool.co.ke) via e-mail by the 27th of October if you are willing to support the event as a reader. You are also welcome to indicate a preference (age group, class, etc.). English-speaking readers are welcome as well.

The official organizers of the nationwide Reading Day in Germany have chosen the motto “Reading connects” for the year 2023. However, other topics are of course also possible.

At the beginning of November, the readers will receive a small booklet containing tips on how to organize the reading time.

We are hoping for your support and are looking forward to your commitment as a reader.

With kind regards, John Tonak German School Nairobi / Head of German Department
