DSJ welcomes new Grade 1s
PARKTOWN – DSJ welcomes new Grade 1 learners using German tradition.
The Deutsche Internationale Schule Johannesburg (DSJ) welcomed their new Grade 1s to big school on January 20 during a special ‘Einschulungsfeier’ (welcoming ceremony).
As per German tradition, the Grade 1s each received a ‘Zuckertüte’ (a cone-shaped container made of paper, cardboard or plastic).
Traditionally, this cone is given to children to calm any anxiety ahead of their first day of school.
The ceremony also welcomed new parents to the school for the first time during the pandemic era.
