The Sonnenhügel school center brings together three independent public schools, each sponsored by the independent city of peace Osnabrück , on a shared school site or in a structured, modern school building complex with school facilities and shared infrastructure in a 'loose organizational network' . Among other things, it offers the advantage of being able to use the resources required in everyday school life at Hauptschule , Realschule and Gymnasium together over the long term. The school center has been conveniently located since 1975, starting with the smallest of beginnings in the Osnabrück district of Sonnenhügel . The connection to the public transport takes place via a common stop point. Each of the three schools has its own school management .

Schools of the center

Three independent schools are located in the Sonnenhügel school center on Knollstrasse in Osnabrück:

  • Felix Nussbaum School (approx. 280 students)
  • Wittekind secondary school (approx. 380 students)
  • Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium (approx. 750 students)

All three schools of the Sonnenhügel center are all-day schools with at least two compulsory teaching days per week , on which at least two hours of lessons are provided in the timetable after a lunch break . On afternoons when there are no lessons, school offers can be used on a voluntary basis after midday.

The Anne Frank School , a special school for physical and motor development, is also adjacent . The Sonnenhügel sports complex and the Nettebad public swimming pool are in the immediate vicinity of the school center.

The school center is not a cooperative comprehensive school due to the lack of organizational ties between the three schools . The incorporation of the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium into the school center initially met with political resistance in parts of the Osnabrück bourgeoisie, regardless of the party-political orientation, and was mainly due to the abandonment of the founding location near the old town and a move out of the representative historical school building , not accepted by all citizens .

New location for the historic high school in the school center

The enforcement on the political level, the location of the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium from Lotter Strasse in the Peace City of Osnabrück, at the foot of the Bergstrasse that leads up to the Westerberg , and on the northwestern edge of the Weststadt directly from the Heger Tor - Today part of the museum ensemble of the Kunstgeschichtliches Museum , with the Felix-Nussbaum-Haus , the internationally acclaimed museum designed by Daniel Libeskind with no exit - permanently relocated to the then Sebastopol school center, there was considerable resistance in the second half of the 1970s interested citizens of Osnabrück. In particular, former high school graduates and the parents at the school were initially unable to accept the newly planned location in the Sonnenhügel district. For daily school attendance, the parents involved were expected to experience a number of additional problems and considerable difficulties for everyday school life in the resulting transition period of several years.

Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium: 1980 move to the school center in Sebastopol

The move of the students from the historic location on Lotter Strasse, at the corner of Arndtstrasse, to the Sebastopol school center, today the Sonnenhügel school center, in 1980, was the most powerful and lasting turning point in the history of the historic school. After the move, the number of students initially fell. In the course of the following school years, the sociological structure of parenthood changed, and earlier graduates in particular complained that the high school's reputation , also compared to the other historical schools in the city, had allegedly been damaged, without taking into account that it was in the There were fundamental changes in the structure of requirements with regard to the offer of high school training places in the Osnabrück urban area. In the first half of the 1970s, the situation was that in the district of Sonnenhügel and the directly adjacent districts of Westerberg , Hafen , Haste , Dodesheide , Widukindland , Gartlage and inner city, there was an insufficient or non-provision of high school education places due to the population development. On the other hand, there was a gymnasium school training place offer in the central inner city area, which, because of its large excess, was not in proportion to the population of these urban areas. At that time, politicians recognized a number of significant advantages if there could be a need-based relocation of grammar school training places.

The two equally traditional Osnabrück high schools Carolinum and Ratsgymnasium , both founded earlier than the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium, were out of the question for a relocation from the inner city area to the outer area of ​​the peace city. In addition, a situation arose in the school planning that provided for a general renovation of the historic school building of the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium and that the land required for the school building extension was not available.

After the Osnabrück city ​​administration , on the basis of decisions made in the city ​​council , the five-point demands of the school parents 'council , presented by the then chairman of the school parents' council, Wolfgang Kosel (retention of the name of the school, gradual relocation, new construction, availability of the infrastructure and all school facilities from the beginning an, four-class high school), after a lengthy discussion in public space, all of them were fulfilled, the planning of the school could actually begin. At this point, the alternative considerations for the formation of an integrated comprehensive school at the Sonnenhügel location were abandoned. Initially, an architectural competition was advertised and construction began in September 1977 on a swampy meadow. As part of the ceremony of the 'first ground-breaking ceremony' promised the then cult alderman of the city, Siegfried Hummel, publicly that the school center Sebastopol would be "one of the best in Lower Saxony most beautiful school in Osnabrück and" the. The Sebastopol school center was opened for school operations on November 13, 1980. The resulting significant advantages for everyone involved in the school operation were clearly evident from the start.

Christian Wulff: 1980 Abitur at Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium in Osnabrück

The lawyer and politician Christian Wulff , 10th Federal President of the Federal Republic of Germany , attended the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium as a pupil until he passed his Abitur examination . His school was founded in 1867 as the 'Städtische Realschule 2nd order' by the then mayor of the city , Johannes Franz Miquel (†). The student Wulff, a graduate of the historical school, graduation class in 1980, was by his classmates in 1975, the ninth class visiting, the Head Boy selected and has made this task within the student council perceived at the historic site to the 1979th During his time as head boy, the City School Council in Osnabrück was founded, in which he played a major role. He was also elected as head of school in the state student council and was also federal chairman of the student union of the CDU / CSU until the end of his school days. He has always remained well connected to his school, including in the new school center.

In a 'student interview' conducted with Lower Saxony's Prime Minister Christian Wulff in 2003, the former head of the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium said as follows about the relocation of the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium in Osnabrück, which he attended for ten school years :

“... I was always proud to have attended the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium. I am very concerned that the EMA does not have that many registrations at the moment, even for the new grades five, six and seven. That probably has to do with the location of the school: I was at the EMA when it was still at Hegertor and have always regretted that the school was relocated to Dodesheide. If it were up to me, the EMA should be back at Hegertor and prevail there against the Caro, Angela, Ursula and the Rats. In my opinion, the Dodesheide location is not entirely happy because only the students come from the western part of the city. The EMA is difficult to reach for students from the rural districts or from Hasbergen. I still have very good memories of the EMA, and back then I helped found the friends' association. ... "

On March 13, 1979, after a parents 'meeting, Christian Wulff was one of the advisory assessors on the founding board of the friends' association, which was founded, with a view to the relocation to the Sonnenhügel district planned for 1980 in order to maintain or maintain the tradition of the school. knowing that it will develop appropriately in the future .

Christian Wulff, head of state of the Federal Republic of Germany from June 2010 to February 2012, spent his entire school days as a high school student, until 1980, in a very representative school building in the neo-Romanesque style , which was built by the city ​​architect Wilhelm Richard during the founding phase Lotterstrasse, corner of Arndtstrasse, experienced. The historical location of his school was given up permanently in the year in which Christian Wulff left his school a few months earlier as a graduate. The Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Gymnasium in Osnabrück moved to the Sebastopol school center in 1980, directly after the opening ceremony by Mayor Ernst Weber on November 13th.
