The Immanuel-Kant-Gymnasium is the municipal gymnasium of the town of Bad Oeynhausen . It is located in the center of the city and is colloquially referred to as " IKG " for short . The catchment area extends into the Herford and Lippe districts bordering on the Minden-Lübbecke district . The school is named after the philosopher Immanuel Kant .
history
The IKG was founded in 1893 as a secondary city school. Since 1898, this school has been located in the building that now houses the city music school . In 1969 the IKG was merged with the Luisenschule, the modern-language girls' grammar school, to form the “municipal grammar school for boys and girls”. Only later was the school name "Immanuel-Kant-Gymnasium" resumed. It is the only grammar school in Bad Oeynhausen and had over 1100 students in 2015.
School partnerships
The IKG maintains partnerships with schools in Geneva in French-speaking Switzerland , Avranches in France , Inowrocław in Poland and Volgograd in Russia . Regular student exchanges take place between the Immanuel Kant Gymnasium and the partner schools, during which not only language skills are expanded, but friendly contacts are also established and maintained.
The Immanuel-Kant-Gymnasium maintains another school partnership - albeit with a completely different sign - in cooperation with the Bad Oeynhausen Realschule Süd with a school in Musasa Ruli in Rwanda . With various campaigns and two sponsored runs so far, the combined efforts of the two Bad Oeynhausen schools have succeeded in building a school in Musasa Ruli and making it possible to build cisterns to store water. The former national soccer player Arne Friedrich is the patron of this aid project .
Since 2001 there has been a cooperation with an urban retirement home, which is expressed primarily through an internet café that is looked after by students from the upper level of the IKG. This commitment was honored in 2005 with the honorary award of the city of Bad Oeynhausen. In addition, a cooperation agreement was signed with the local company Buschjost GmbH in 2009 .
Former students
Well-known former students are the moderators Barbara Eligmann and Daniel Budiman , the cook Christian Lohse and the historian Reinhard Rürup .
