23 Mar Clam cream puffs, family weekend and visit from the USA

Dear reader,

Last weekend, Saturday we were visited by two anniversary teams from the old teacher training college and on Sunday a larger group from the Gastronomy team was involved in the Løgstør Kanal Rally, where they, together with head chef Lars Jeppesen, presented a culinary world novelty, a mussel cream bun.

This week, all students had oral exams in several subjects. The international students, after a week's break, had their last 4 written tests this week. The coming period will be marked by the school year coming to an end, memory books being written in the common rooms in the evenings and pupils seeking closer ties in their close communities. On Wednesday we were visited by over 200 2nd grade students from all over Vesthimmerland Municipality.They had a different sports and activity day with a trip around the world. This weekend we have Family Day on Friday and Saturday. Sunday is New Students' Day all day, and we are really looking forward to seeing the future students.

223 children travelled around the world in Ranum

An adventurous and cross-border morning for big and small afterschool students, when 223 2nd grade students from the surrounding elementary schools visited us for sports day in Ranum.
9 entries in the soon legendary race "Around the world with Ranum Efterskole College" were completed in a very committed style - while smiles spread among guides and guests!

Visit from the USA

The day before yesterday, we were visited by 11 students from our American friendship school Kirby & Pacific Collegiate Schools. After a short landing they are now in Copenhagen, where they experience the street culture and must-see attractions, before they will experience Ranum Efterskole Coolege in the coming weeks. They will also visit the homes of their host students, and experience a Danish home.

Family weekend

On Friday and Saturday, parents and siblings will try being at Ranum Efterskole College for 24 hours. Friday evening there will be a Nepal bingo game, and Saturday morning both students and parents will be on morning exercise. Afterwards there will be a presentation of profile subjects from the 3rd journey and then everyone will try out some profile subjects and activities. The day ends with a community assembly, where there is also planning of the Nine Festival.
Sunday is New Students' Day. We are really looking forward to seeing all the new students and their parents.

This year's student party on 19 June

There are only 14 days left until this year's RE-ELEVFEST. Remember the deadline for registration is 10 June! I kidd you not!

Events next week

The whole of next week will be dedicated to the oral tests. And otherwise, we can welcome 14 high school students from our friendship high school Utsikten in Sweden, who will visit us for 10 days.
On Sunday, 9 young people from our French friendship school in Paris will also come. They will experience after-school life for 10 days and our international students will have a great challenge in hosting the guests.

They can enjoy a Tour De Vesthimmerland on Mondays and maybe catch a fish on Thursdays. Yes, that's the name of the programme, "Catch a Fish".

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday are also open gardens from 3pm where students can get green + dirty hands in the "Gardens for Tummies" project. Leeks and long onions are starting to take shape. 

Best regards and have a great weekend.
