THE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL IN FRANKFURT

Congratulations to our Grade 9 student Aaron Joshua Keller who won bronze at the German Judo Championship!

Aaron was the youngest competitor to take part in the German U18 Championships in his judo sport for the first time. He had previously qualified by winning gold at the Hesse Championships and gold at the South-West German Championships.

Aaron faced tough challenges in Leipzig, as every participant had already proven themselves in their respective federal states and at one of the five group championships. It was correspondingly difficult, and Aaron had to win some fights that lasted 12 minutes. In the end, he was defeated only once during the day and proudly and exhaustedly won the bronze medal.

The next challenges are already lined up: Aaron is still in the nomination plan for the European Championships in Gran Canaria. To do so, he needs to achieve two more international placings: in three weeks` time, he can already get one at the Bremen Masters and another a week later in Czechia 🤗

An afternoon full of rolling, laughter, and community😍 🍣

When around 25 curious participants gathered for the Friends of MSF sushi workshop on Saturday there was immediately a special atmosphere in the air! Students, parents, and staff members — a wonderfully diverse mix — came together to dive into the art of sushi rolling.

Thanks to the exceptionally careful preparation of our team from the Japanese community, everything ran like clockwork. With great dedication and attention to detail, every step was thoughtfully planned: from the perfectly prepared workstations to the very last roll.

There was focused rolling, plenty of laughter, and proud smiles as everyone admired their own sushi creations, which not only looked fantastic but tasted absolutely delicious. The joy over the successful results could be felt everywhere. 😊🍱

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this special workshop possible. We are already looking forward to the next event together! 🙏🥹🦊

Our Early Years students celebrated Carnival during their Free Flow! 🎭 Each class prepared different fun activities for the children to enjoy, including face painting, dancing, mask making, and more. It was a joyful day full of color, creativity, and big smiles! 🥰

🍃 Learning Beyond the Classroom 🍃

Our Grade 4 students took part in an engaging Outdoor Education experience led by Mr Kerr, connecting directly to their Unit of Inquiry.

Through a hands-on leaf hunt, students explored concepts of nature, discussed decomposition, and deepened their understanding of how ecosystems function — all while enjoying a day of active, outdoor learning.

Experiences like this not only enrich classroom learning but also give students a glimpse into how Outdoor Education becomes an integral part of Middle School life at MSF.

A special thank you to Mr Kerr for dedicating his time and creating such a meaningful learning opportunity for our students.
