- Sacs de sucre pour 19 000 élèves de première année - introduction à l'école
C'est l'événement tant attendu par des milliers de filles et de garçons : trois jours après le début officiel de l'année scolaire, environ 19 000 enfants en Thuringe ont célébré leur intégration scolaire. Le clou du spectacle était la remise de sacs à surprises remplis de friandises, de cadeaux, de stylos et de cahiers, que les élèves de première année ont reçus lors de petites fêtes organisées par leurs écoles. During these events, the new students also got to know their older peers, who had prepared special programs for them. Afterwards, the ABC scholars went home, where a spread of cake often awaited them.
Some families also host elaborate celebrations in larger groups at restaurants, while others use the school induction day for a special picnic or a trip to the zoo. According to the Ministry of Education, the number of six and seven-year-olds starting school this year is slightly lower than last year.
The importance of a good education was underscored during the celebrations, with the ABC scholars eagerly learning from their older peers. parents often view the school induction day as a significant milestone in their children's educational journey.
