The ceremony for the inauguration of the Jahnschule extension took place on Saturday.
The rector is pleased with the “feel-good atmosphere” in the rooms.
Bad Tölz - “We are here from grades 1 to 4, we are the kids of the Jahnschule”: Not only new classrooms and its own gym, the Tölzer Jahnschule now also has its own school song.
This couldn't be missed when the school's extension building was officially inaugurated with a ceremony on Saturday after four years of construction and several setbacks.
The public was then allowed to view the rooms at an open day.
In the presence of the city councilors and city administration, the parent representatives, the school staff and the students from the first to fourth grade, the new building was ceremoniously inaugurated and blessed by Pastor Peter Demmelmair.
A feel-good atmosphere for teachers and students
Director Peter Lang was particularly pleased with the new building: “Lots of wood and glass: a feel-good atmosphere has been created here for students and teachers,” he said.
“A gymnasium, two new classrooms, a craft room and a craft room as well as a school kitchen.
There was also space for a rehearsal room for the Tölz town band,” he said.
“Even if the construction was expensive, every euro invested in children is worth it – they are our future,” emphasized Lang.
But school is not just a place with four walls, as Pastor Demmelmair emphasized: “Article 131 of the Bavarian Constitution states: School should not only be a place for education, but above all for education of the heart.
A place where compassion, empathy and respect are learned.” The children of grade 3a and their teacher Isabelle Köhler expressed this in a song: “School is more.”
Guided tours through the rooms every ten minutes
Mayor Ingo Mehner compared the construction to school: “First a foundation has to be poured before it can be built on.
The foundation is laid in primary school before more subjects are added.”

At the subsequent open day, the students were given a tour of the new rooms every ten minutes.
In the new workroom, visitors could make bookmarks or spin a wheel of fortune and then win drinking yoghurts by asking questions about the farm.
The parents were happy for their children.
“The construction site is finally finished and now the children have such a beautiful new school, even though my son enjoyed watching the excavators,” said a mom from Ellbach.
Joy that normality is returning
The parents' council was also enthusiastic about the new rooms: “We would especially like to thank the school management and the great staff for keeping the restrictions as low as possible over the last four years and for working together to create the beautiful new building and now opening it “can be done,” said chairwoman Stephanie Schumacher-Gebler.
In addition to the joy of the new school, Rector Lang was relieved that normality was returning: “Recess can soon be held together again, the construction noise and restrictions are largely over, the outdoor area should be ready by early summer.
The new students from September will have a new, finished school.”
