27 Sep Skills, Activities and Adventures
Dear reader,
Another week has passed, with plenty of activities both in and out of school. Adventure and adventure as part of the students' education is at the forefront, and engaged students only add to the experience. Lectures and excursions add variety, and project work really puts students' problem-solving skills to the test.
We're looking forward to a great weekend presenting the school at efterskolernes Day on 29 Sep, 10am - 5pm!
Happy reading & weekend.

Skills sailing
Skills sailors sailed from Hou to Fænø on Tuesday, with night sailing through the Little Belt and under the bridges in total calm, ideal for learning navigation lights. The following morning, the students woke up at an anchorage, had a hearty breakfast, after a fresh swim around the boat. The days have been full of navigation, knots and sailing.
A visit to Timothy Jacob Jensen Studios
On Thursday, the profile subject Media went on a field trip to Timothy Jacob Jensen Studios to learn about product design, their process and how they work creatively.
Students also had the opportunity to ask questions during the presentation and challenged their views on how to design.
Adventure in Uhrehøje Forest
Headmaster's column
Dear reader,
The students came back refreshed from the long weekend and the week started with lots of activity. On Wednesday, all students had a lecture on "consent" or acceptance in sex and relationships. It's a very important theme, which creates really good considerations in relation to equality and acceptance between young people. The students welcomed Magnus and Marie, who have a lot of experience in removing shyness and opening the dialogue.
In the profile subjects, students have been preparing for the Efterskolernes Day Open House and most teams are ready for their profile subject journeys in just one week.
At weekends, there are a lot of students at the school, who can take time off, participate in excursions to places such as Aalborg or out in nature. We also host a dance camp with more than 60 dancers, and our own dance-loving students can also participate. Sunday is Efterskolernes Day and we look forward to showing off the school to the many families and young people who stop by on Sunday. We encourage visitors to spread out over the day so that not everyone arrives all at once at 10am. We are open until 17:00, but to get a good impression, it is important that you set aside at least 2 hours for the visit and therefore arrive before 15:00. Everyone is welcome and registration is not necessary.
