It has already been half time, my friends!

Dear students of next year´s 7s class - I hope you are having a great time in your holidays and preparing to pass your necessary exams splendidly, in case you need to!
I just wanted to say Hi and tell you that I am looking forward to starting school again in a little over 3 weeks ;-) It is crazy how fast the time goes, would you believe it?
Anyways, hope you are having a blast, the little "Fischberger" family is enjoying the rest and the sun after 2 and a half stressful weeks in England, where I was working at the Benenden Camp again this year...
I´ll write to you again some time soon, to give you more infos about our trip to Ireland at the end of October...

Arrivederci de Italia - our week at the Lago di Garda...!

Hi folks, this is it - we are finally back at home, super! ;-)

Well, I hope you had as much of a good time as I (and Fr. Prof. Ortbauer) did and that you enjoyed our little stay in Torbole!
Here are some first impressions of our stay and the adventures we experienced. On Monday, when we have our first sports science lesson (period 5) we will look back and talk about it - and you will get your CD with the pics...

The view of Lago di Garda on top of the Collodri Via Ferrata was impressive...

Soooooo cold.... ouch! ;-)
ERF

Happy Easter and relaxing holidays!

After a last really stressful week for you guys it´s finally time to relax - a little, folks, do not forget that AFTER a test is BEFORE the next test again! ;-)
Take care and have a good time with your families and friends and come back to school healthy!

Do not forget that, after only 3 days back at school, we´ll be going to Italy! Get organised for that, ok?

ELTERNSPRECHTAG NÄCHSTEN DONNERSTAG

Hi 6S,
please do not forget that next Thursday, April 14th, we have the 2nd parents´ day at our school, starting at 4 and ending at 7 - that means we need to do some preparatory work on Tuesday (you want to create a new price list) and organise who can be here and what we need to get - ask your parents if they can make cakes again and so on....

Thanks, see you on Monday, enjoy your weekend,

6s wins 500 euros in DJ competition....

Despite a complete lack of knowladge about DJing and the consequent bad choice of songs in the first place, 6S and Ernst Fischer succeeded in winning the DJ Competition in Empire St. Martin last night, therefore securing 500 Euros to the class budget for Italy at the beginning of May this year.
Thanks to the musical input of many students who contributed their ideas for songs and an outstanding, though a little embarrassing performance by head of the class Ernst Fischer, 6s managed to secure the cash, far ahead of the only other competitor to put on a set of songs with resident DJ Renee Rodriguezz tonite.
The money will be wisely spent, as there are buses and several other bills to pay for 6s in the following weeks - thanks again to Le Manu for the songs, the pep talk and all the students who went to St. Martin in order to help get the applause needed to win the money.
Pics to follow!

6s welcomes the Argentinian guy!

As head teacher of our year 6 sportsclass it is a pleasure for me to welcome a new member of class to the rest of the online world. Guiliano (I hope I spelt it correctly!) has just arrived from Argentina and will be with us for the rest of the school year.
Maybe he will have some time to introduce himself on this page - today he introduced his running skills to the school and beat the school record for 5000m - his time to beat is 18min46sec. Keep going, Guili! ;-)
I am glad that the class has received him very well and wish him all the best for his stay in Austria.
To be continued...

Open Day at the George...

Hi guys, as there was the Open Day at our school today and some students were involved in the sports show, I want to show you one picture I took of our boys - the only one missing is Philipp, I think, that´s a shame, though, as he was red in the face!

Well done boys, all of you did a really good job - you should be pleased with yourselves!

ERF

And now, the boys:

Link to freelife´s Gardasee info!

Hi students,

I have added a new feature to our blog - you can now get to Freelife´s info about their Lake Garda trips by clicking the link on the side bar.

Thank you for your cooperation and letting me change the date - we are now officially going to Italy on May 2nd, to return on May 6th. The rest of the prior info remains unchanged.

Tomorrow´s photo appointment....

... has been cancelled. As some of you asked me I checked back with the office and was told that tomorrow, there are several class photos to be taken, but not ours...

Whoever checks the blog, please pass on the message and let other pupils from our class know too!

Thanks,

ERF

Countdown is nearly ... well, counted, really...

Hi folks,

and now the end is near, and so we face, the final day-hays...

I hope you know Frank Sinatra, otherwise the above line might be a bit too much for you, nevermind.

Just wanted to tell you that I am really looking forward to school again, yeah! ;-)

No, seriously, it´ll be good to see you all again and take some pictures - do not forget to come to school in your best outfits. ;-)

See you on Monday,

ERF

Having fun?

Hi you guys from future 6s and fans of this page - there are not too many of those, though, I believe... ;-)

Just wanted to tell you I am hoping you are having a blast in your holidays and everything is perfect.

For the ones who need to do a lot of studying: hopefully you have already started to do some work, just so you can be part of our class next year!

I´ll get in touch again soon, take care,

ERF (+ mate Mathias)

Mr Bubblefish in action

Hi folks, how´re your holidays going? Mine are great, have been walking with Paul, changing nappies, and so on and so forth... good fun, really.
I have uploaded a little video from our trip to Vienna, where you can see Mr. Bubblefish - yet he does not blow!

Enjoy, there will be more!

Below there is a white tip shark - well, I do not recall the biologically correct name of this mammal... find the mistake! ;-)

By the way, feel free to put pictures from your holidays online or send them to me via e-mail and I´ll post them for you!
ERF

Oh, and thanks for the Paulie presents.

Ooooh, .... Vienna!

Hi you guys,

do not forget that on Monday, our class is meeting at the main train station in Linz @ 7.40 am to go to the House of Seas in the Old FLAK Tower.

Some of you have not given the 23 Euros to Ines, so please do not forget to take them along to the station on Monday morning.

Other than that,... make sure you do not forget your parents´ signed paper slip!

And have a nice last weekend of this school year! ;-)

ERF

Promised picture of ...

.... Paul, who arrived in the early morning of last Saturday. He is a nice little boy who does not complain too often, only when his dad touches him. Soon, however, he will be speaking English and bend it like ... well, Beckham, I guess! The formal data: 50cms, 3330gr, healthy

I hope you guys like the picture! ;-)

SPOK test on Wednesday created

Hi 5s - I have just finished creating the SPOK test for Wednesday - it includes the following topics:

• Bones and the skeleton
• The joints (= Gelenke ;-))
• Injuries and what to do when hurt
• Pulse and the things to do with it

Please make sure you look at everything closely, so you do not get a bad mark... there will be a second repetition at one point throughout the course, but the when has not been sorted.

See you guys tomorrow - ERF

The first picture from the Kitzsteinhorn!!!

Hi students,

I only wanted to post one picture from our trip to the Kitzsteinhorn... maybe you can also choose one or two of your favourite pictures and put them on our blog?
ERF

This is one of mine:

Kitzsteinhorn is thriving!!!

Dear parents - in this case, it is probably only parents. Don´t you worry, everything here at the Kitz is just great - the weather is nice, the rooms are excellent, and the food is good - most of the time. ;-)
Tomorrow, we´re already leaving this place again and your kids will get back - the plan is to be at the GvP at around 1 pm - but I will tell your children to phone you when we know exactly when we will be there.
So, tonight there will be a farewell party and I hope that every one will have a good time.
Cheerio, see you tomorrow,

ERF

Elternsprechtag on Thursday!!!

Hi folks,
as you all know by now, the date I gave you for the Parents' day was inaccurate! We have it on Thursday, which means, that all the food and so on needs to be here by that date rather than on
Wednesday! I hope, everyone can rearrange and make sure that they are here as long and do as much work as possible!
Talk to you soon, probably in about 15 minutes, then we´ll discuss matters further!

Happy Easter everyone!

Hi everybody,

I hope you liked the project with Carmen, Marina and Lü Qiang just as much as me and Prof. Mayer and took a lot of information AND cultural sensitivity away with you into the holidays.

Whatever you do in the next one and a half weeks - have a good time doing it and enjoy the peace and quiet of not having to go to school. Get your energy levels back up and your enthusiasm as well, so we can get started on the next project when you guys return to school:

Getting to 6S the next year. :-)

Have fun, oh, AND DO NOT FORGET TO ASK YOUR PARENTS about the "ELTERNSPRECHTAG" - we need cakes, any kind of material you can put on sandwiches, coffee.... and so on!

Happy Easter,

ERF

Oh, click on happy easter! ;-) Oh, and to get some info about the Kitzsteinhorn, click here.

Coherence of this, that, these and those...!

Hi guys, check out this site about this, that, these, those - just click here.
