Most schools in the district also work during the summer holidays. But not students and teachers sweat, but craftsmen.

  • In the schools in the Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen district, construction work takes place during the summer holidays
  • The most expensive construction site is the school center in the city of Geretsried
  • Smaller measures are carried out in the schools in Bad Tölz

Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen - The holidays “are regularly used to carry out necessary renovation and conversion work, particularly those associated with noise and dust,” said Sabine Schmid, the press spokeswoman for the district office. This year this affects "almost all schools that are sponsored by the district". An overview:

The school center in Geretsried is the most costly construction site. Currently, as part of the general renovation, which devours a total of around 50 million euros, screed and facade work is being carried out in one construction phase. In addition, new doors, railings and modern showcases are installed. Demolition, masonry, drywall construction and carpentry work have been completed. For the measures that are done during the holidays, "around 1.8 million euros are estimated," says Schmid. The triple gym at the school center is about to be completed. There are only small jobs left here. Total cost of the measure: 10.7 million euros.

The partial complete renovation of the secondary school and support center in Bad Tölz will be costly: The extensive, largely already completed measures will - according to the current cost estimates - cost a total of around 16 million euros. Workers are currently renovating the concrete in the intermediate building and at the Lichtgraben. Costs of 600,000 to 800,000 euros are forecast for these trades, some of which are weather-dependent.

13 million for the Wolfratshausen secondary school

The district plans to invest at least 13 million euros in the secondary school in Wolfratshausen in the coming years. The facility is being repaired and expanded. “The specialist class buildings will be partially refurbished,” and a separate building constructed for the open all-day school. "For this purpose, preliminary measures are currently being carried out on the canal and water pipes in the outside area," says Schmid. Around 50,000 euros are available for these services. In the vocational school, which is located on the same site, the complete fire alarm system is being renewed and part of the administrative area is being renovated. Cost: 135,000 euros.

The Franz-Marc-Schule support center in Geretsried is currently a major construction site: In addition to a general renovation, a part of the building is being partially increased. The district anticipates total costs of around 10.1 million euros. "For the vacation months of August and September, scaffolding, demolition, master builder, steel construction and carpentry work with costs of an estimated 400,000 euros are planned," says Schmid.

The district spends around 120,000 euros on the renovation of individual classrooms, the renewal of the interior and entrance doors and adjustments to the electrical installation in the Ickingen grammar school. The renovation of the gymnasium has been completed after the remaining trades such as painting and tiling as well as the renewal of the sports floor and the impact walls. Around 1.8 million euros are budgeted for the gym.

Some smaller measures at schools in Bad Tölz

Small measures are being carried out at several schools in Bad Tölz: A cellar wall on the old school building is being renovated. Together with the renovation of the open spaces, the district is spending 250,000 euros here. In the technical college and vocational college in Bad Tölz, the summer holidays are used to renovate the ventilation and heating system. The costs for this are 190,000 euros. The vocational school's loudspeaker system is being renewed and several classrooms are being renovated. "The total costs for this are around 118,000 euros," says Schmid.

Even in some elementary and secondary schools - they are in municipal hands - the school-free time is used. “The city always tries to distribute the construction work over the holiday periods,” says Lorenz Kirmaier from the Geretsrieder building authority. At the Karl-Lederer-Mittelschule, the most expensive measure is around 100,000 euros. The new teaching kitchen “including the latest, digital and energy-saving equipment” with four cooking lines and several cooking islands should be ready in time for the new school year.

Small measures are planned at the Karl-Lederer-Grundschule and the Adalbert-Stifter-Mittelschule. The windows of the day care center at the primary school on Isar-damm are being renewed for 50,000 euros. The Dietramszell community is continuing the general renovation of the primary school. During the summer holidays, work will be carried out in component A, which mainly contains classrooms. "We are talking about an order of magnitude of around 250,000 euros," says building authority employee Hubert Walser. He hopes that the measure will be completed “in late autumn”. The next step is to prepare the part in which the gym and secretariat are located. "When exactly we will start is not yet certain."

Due to Corona, planned measures in Lenggries have been postponed

The situation is different in Lenggries: "The community did not carry out any construction or maintenance measures at the elementary and middle school this year during the summer holidays," says Vice Mayor Franz Schöttl. Planned measures have been postponed "also due to the Covid-19 situation".
