history

The Christophorusschule Rostock was 1991. At that time, were children and youth sports school and a special school mathematics and scientific and technical direction aligned Albert Einstein school taken over by the CJD and merged. The first headmaster was Burghard Eichholz, Pastor Konrad Frenzel had been in this office from 1993 until he was retired in 2010 and Jan-Dirk Zimmermann succeeded him. In February 2013, Burghard Eichholz was again headmaster until Steffen Kästner took over in August 2013.

Boarding school director Bernd Kilian was replaced in 2005 by Moritz Bethe, who was replaced by Johannes Beykirch in 2011. In the primary school founded in 2002, Steffi Wolf is the headmistress.

The entire high school branch is taught in two buildings:

  • House 1, a building of the former children's and youth sports school from 1959, which was completely renovated in 2000 and supplemented in 2010 by a library, seminar rooms and practice rooms for soloists from the music school in the roof truss.
  • House 2, a new building (completed in 2000) with specialist rooms for the areas of biology, chemistry, physics and computer science, a lecture hall and normal classrooms for secondary levels I and II. This means that a total of 45 classrooms are available for students from the fifth grade. This building was expanded in 2014 by 8 classrooms and a project room (Christophorussaal).

The elementary school part was opened in 2002 on the neighboring site of a former polytechnic high school.

In 2004, the construction of the new cafeteria, which is also used as a forum for theater performances, school concerts and other school events, was completed. Before that, the students had lunch in two different buildings. In addition to the boarding school, this also included a dilapidated barrack.

To complement the gym, outdoor sports facilities ( 100-meter track , long jump pit, tartan court, beach volleyball court ) were built and opened on the school premises in 2007 .

Further measures, such as the construction of a cafeteria, the renovation of the boarding school and the redesign of the schoolyard are in the planning stage.

primary school

The four-year elementary school in the youth village has two classes . As an all-day school , the CJD looks after the students from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., with lessons starting at 7:45 a.m. After lunch in the cafeteria, the day begins with courses (bunnies, math professionals, recorder, everything Lego or what ?, keyboard, colorful all sorts, chess, art, customs of the year, cooking, singing, playing English, Christian teaching, first aid, Once upon a time ..., colorful art, computer time, soccer, sewing, zoo courses, handball, woodworking, children's dance, seasons, our environment, poetry, bookworm), homework supervision and studying time continued. Fixed rituals such as regular prayers, morning circles and final rounds ensure solid cohesion.

The morning lessons are divided into three blocks (two times 45 minutes each). Long breaks have been set up between the blocks for breakfast and relaxation together. The times of the longer breaks are binding, but the school bell is not used in order to adapt to the performance curve and concentration of the students and the current teaching situation. If possible, less strenuous subjects such as music, art, handicrafts, sports, swimming, and performing games are in the last block of the day.

The primary school is largely based on the framework conditions and the school regulations of the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania , but has a few exceptions:

  • an increased number of hours in German and in the arts and creativity-promoting subjects
  • mandatory religious instruction
  • Foreign language lessons from the 2nd grade
  • Performing games as a subject
  • Experimentation and music theory in the 4th grade

G8 branch

The Christophorus School in Rostock has had an eight-year high school branch since it was founded. Normally, the students in the grammar school attend eight years , the students in the sports class usually nine years.

Orientation level

At the Christophorusschule Rostock it is possible to attend the grammar school from the 5th grade without any special requirements. With a maximum class size of 24 students, weekend experiences are shared with classmates in the weekly morning circle. In addition to the normal lessons, knowledge on the subject of traffic and health is imparted in projects. Through homework supervision in the in-house library , compulsory elective lessons , cooperation with sports clubs and the German Society for the Gifted Child (DGhK) , all-round support and a later change to the other branches are possible.

Every year all fifth grades take a trip together to Boitzenburg Castle . During this school trip week, project lessons take place in the sixth grade .

Secondary level I.

The second foreign language (Latin, French, Russian, and if there is sufficient interest also Spanish and / or Swedish) begins when you enter seventh grade. In grades 7 and 8, the compulsory elective course (WPU) includes one lesson per week, offered are: archeology, performing games, ceramics, model making, politics, pop choir and history of pop music, learning to program with graphics (TI) and from pixel graphics to 3D (TI ). Pupils with reading / spelling weaknesses (LRS) can alternatively take part in remedial classes in German or English during the WPU.

With the entry into the ninth grade it is possible to choose a third foreign language (Spanish, Swedish, Latin) as WPU. Alternatively, there is the following offer: chemistry, Christophoruschor, gospel choir, performing games, ceramics, mathematics, technology / computer science (prerequisite for enrollment in the upper level).

During the class trip and project week, the seventh grade undertakes a religious educational project trip , the eighth grades do a project week on the topic of prevention, the ninth grades take a class trip with a self-set goal, and the tenth grades take part in preparatory project days in cooperation with the BIZ as well as project days to create a Technical work that must be completed in the course of the first half of the year.

At the end of the tenth grade, a two-week internship must be completed after preparation by the social studies / AWT teacher.

Secondary level II

Upon entering the upper level, there is a basic choice between the linguistic (5 weekly hours (Wh) German, 4 Wh Mathematics) and natural science (5 Wh Mathematics, 4 Wh German) branch. The subjects history (4 Wh), English (5 Wh), religion (2 Wh), sport (2 Wh), and music or art (2 Wh each) are compulsory. In addition, the 3 natural sciences (4/5 Wh), up to 2 other foreign languages ​​(French, Latin and Russian (5 Wh each); Swedish and Spanish (4 Wh each)) and / or computer science can be chosen as the main subject. Other selectable subjects (2 Wh each) are: Music or Art, Geography, Social Studies, Philosophy, Economics, Applied Sciences, Performing Games, Ensemble Play (Christophoruschor, Gospelchor).

In the subject of applied sciences, with specialization in a natural science, a project work (e.g. Jugend forscht ) can be created, which replaces one of the written Abitur exams as a special learning achievement (BLL).

Secondary school students take care of their homework in the in-house library for younger students.

Funding branch for competitive athletes

The Christophorus School Rostock has two athletes' classes in each grade. This class is attended by students who are active in the youth departments of Rostock's competitive sports clubs, especially short trackers from ESV Turbine Rostock, youth players from HC Empor Rostock , athletes from 1. LAV Rostock , soccer players from FC Hansa Rostock , sailors, rowers, Swimmers and high divers.

In cooperation with the clubs, the timetables have been brought into line with the training plans so that the students can train in the morning:

  • Years 5–7: two double hours of morning training & one hour of sport in a class
  • Years 8-10: three double hours of morning training
  • Years 11–13 (upper level): four double hours of morning training, as well as an extension of the school term from two to three years (qualification: general university entrance qualification )

Sport and sport theory are combined for students in this branch in the upper level to form a major (medical clearance certificate required).

Funding branch for the gifted

The Christophorusschule Rostock has a gifted class in every grade from class 5. Applicants for the gifted class are invited to a trial week from the fifth grade after an intelligence structure test , after which the teachers and the school psychologist decide whether a visit to the gifted class is possible. At the same time, the trial week for pupils who do not live in Rostock and are entering the ninth grade or later also serves to get to know life in the boarding school.

In the remedial class, gifted students should primarily be encouraged by deepening the subject areas. Another special feature is teaching in project form, in which, for example, more extensive scientific experiments can be carried out than would normally be the case. These projects can also be interdisciplinary. The number of hours is higher than in normal classes. The gifted classes are intensively supervised by school psychologists. In order to satisfy the thirst for knowledge of the gifted, we work with the Rostock University Library , so that it is possible to visit it without reaching the age of 18.

In the upper level , pupils from the gifted classes are divided into courses together with pupils from the other classes. However, the compulsory subjects mathematics, German, English, history, religion and sport will continue to be taught with a higher number of hours in class. The gifted classes are currently doing their Abitur after eight years at grammar school, but in the past there were also nine-year gifted classes.

Funding branch for musicians

In cooperation with the HMT Rostock , junior students of the university are accepted into the competitive athlete classes. During the morning and afternoon training sessions for classmates, the music students practice and take classes (theoretical and practical) at the HMT Rostock.

The option of extending schooling from two to three years in the upper level has also been created for students in the music branch (qualification: general university entrance qualification ), with music and music theory being combined as a main subject for students in this branch in upper secondary level.

Boarding school

The boarding school of the Christophorus School Rostock is located directly on the grounds of the youth village . On five of the six floors, up to 90 students from the ninth grade are looked after by a total of five social workers and one trainee. At the end of the 2010/11 school year, the former boarding school director Moritz Bethe left the youth village, the management was taken over by the previous deputy Johannes Beykirch.

The administration and the school psychologist of the youth village are located on the first floor of the boarding school building.

The boarding school offers plenty of space for community: two TV rooms, an internet room and W-LAN throughout the house, a kitchen on each floor, a billiard room, a table football room, a reading room with the latest daily newspapers, as well as a leisure room for joint film and football evenings. There is also a practice room for instrumentalists from the boarding school on the ground floor.

Breakfast, coffee and dinner are eaten together at set times in a dining room with an attached kitchen on the ground floor. A lunch menu is also available here for employees and guests of the youth village, while the boarding school students and the other students in the cafeteria are taken care of by a catering service. You can also cook yourself in one of the shared kitchens at any time.

Throughout the year there are various festivals and activities in the boarding school, including: birthday dinner on the respective floor, an autumn festival, a Christmas ball, a house party (in spring) and a barbecue evening (in summer).

In order to get to know the boarding school, there is the possibility of completing a trial week. This is done either during the general contact week of the gifted or as a competitive athlete and student of the normal branch on request in between.

For the ninth grade, there is a study period supervised by the social pedagogues for daily homework. From grade ten onwards, the students organize themselves.

The residents of the boarding school elect a new boarding board every year, which passes the interests of the pupils on to the boarding school and school management. The boarding board consists of 10 members, with 2 speakers on each floor and 2 others elected by the whole house. The chairman of the boarding board also sits on the school's student council (JDR).
