history

The forerunner of today's school building was built during the German Empire in 1893, before the following year 1894 Petristraße, named after Karl Christian Ludwig Adolf Petri (1803–1873), as a connection from Ricklinger Straße to Ritter-Brüning-Straße was created.

The former Bürgererschule 34 , sometimes also called Petri School , was almost completely destroyed by aerial bombs during the air raids on Hanover in World War II.

After the existing land of the school could be significantly expanded by a purchase in the post-war period, the new elementary school , initially also known as the Egestorff School , was built according to plans by the architect Christian Voßberg from the municipal building department of Hanover . It was named after the industrialist Georg Egestorff .

Taking advantage of the jump in the terrain, the construction program envisaged the construction of four clearly separated structures:

  1. the main building with the administration and all special rooms;
  2. the three-storey class wing for 12 main classes with side rooms;
  3. a single-storey lower-level pavilion connected to the main building by a wing; such as
  4. the gym. The 12 × 24 meter hall with its resilient double swing floor with oak parquet was intended for ball games, for example, while under the roof on the upper floor there was more gymnastics.

The new building from the 1950s , however, was designed for 16 regular classes and was supplemented by an additional number of special rooms from the “normal room program” at the time, since in 1955 “an eight-level school was still planned” to meet the increasing demand To cover school rooms in the district.

Part of the classroom wing is today from the neighboring school Humboldt School Hannover used as a branch office.

Bust of Georg Egestorff

A bust of the school's namesake by the hand of the sculptor Elsbeth Rommel was installed for the school as art in architecture .
