The Friedrich-Paulsen-Schule is a grammar school in Niebüll , North Friesland district .
history
The school is named after the professor of philosophy and education Friedrich Paulsen (1846–1908). In 1925 it was initially founded as a German secondary school in Niebüll. Born in Langenhorn , the philosopher and educator has taught at the University of Berlin since 1878. By naming the new school, Friedrich Paulsen was not only to be honored as a child of this landscape, but also as an advocate of a new form of secondary school. In it the newer languages and the natural sciences came to the fore. The Friedrich Paulsen School wanted to meet his educational ideas. The school was architecturally designed and built by Lütcke, the government building officer. It is stylistically located between the beginning Art Nouveau and the beginning Expressionism , but the material and overall exterior are adapted to local construction. The building is carried out in the art topography of Schleswig-Holstein .
The school offered since 1929 with a branch "Rural High School", a boarding school for students from the North Frisian islands and islets originate, the possibility of a school the university to acquire. In 1960 the school was reorganized into three branches for modern language and mathematics training, as well as the rural school. This division of functions could only be dispensed with when Wyk auf Föhr and Westerland received secondary schools. The boarding school could thus be redesigned for other purposes.
particularities
The school took part in a cross-border project until 2014 in which pupils from Tondern ( Denmark ) and Niebüll attended a class, the so-called “European class”, and were taught in Niebüll and Tondern on an annual basis. The project was funded by the European Union . The subsidies were primarily expressed in the renovation and modernization of existing premises, investments in new media and school trips for the European class. In 2016, a partnership was started with the high school in Ribe , in which the upper school students learning German or Danish visit each other four times a year and work on joint projects in the respective foreign language.
The Friedrich-Paulsen-Schule also offers bilingual lessons . The subject of geography is optionally taught in English at the intermediate level . Since 2011 the teachers have also been offering “Lions Quest”. This is an educational lesson where teachers teach students to solve problems on their own.
The premises
The Friedrich-Paulsen-Schule comprises five parts of the building, the old building with gymnasium built in 1925, the intermediate building in the north of the courtyard, the new building in the east, the upper level building, which previously served as a boarding school for students from the islands and Halligen , and the one completed in spring 2011 Cafeteria construction. Most of the classrooms and the specialist rooms for geography, as well as the rooms for the administration and the teachers' room are in the old building. The old building also houses a mineral collection and the auditorium. The intermediate building also houses a large number of classrooms as well as the art rooms. The new building can be divided into two parts, the old new building, called the intermediate building, and the new building, which was completed in 2004. Here are the subject rooms for chemistry , physics and biology as well as a computer room and 17 classrooms, which are mainly intended for the lower grades . The upper level classes are mainly held in the upper level building and the cafeteria. There are three sports halls available for physical education , on the one hand the FPS hall attached to the school building, the smallest and oldest of the three halls, the Südtondernhalle, which is located directly at the swimming pool, three minutes' walk from the school, and recently too the Drei-Harden-Halle, in which the students of the upper school classes have lessons when the lessons at the Drei-Harden-Schule have ended.
In 2008 the sports field was renewed. A basketball field and a volleyball field were built . In addition, the long jump track and the running track were renewed.
In 2009, construction began on a new cafeteria that will provide the children with hot meals after school. Several working groups and homework support are offered here. The canteen was inaugurated on February 1, 2011. The cafeteria includes a new auditorium , as the original one from the construction period of the old building does not offer enough space for large celebrations, as well as the new student library and three additional classrooms.
At the end of 2009 the school was renovated. When the plaster was removed, the original colors became visible and it was decided to paint the school in the original colors of white, red and gray.
