Discover Liège in German!
The Centre for German Studies at the University of Liège invites you on 7 October to a city rally, where pupils will explore the city in small groups using their German skills. The event will kick off with a “speed dating” activity, giving participants the chance to get to know each other. For the grand finale, a Kahoot quiz will allow the pupils to show what they have discovered and learned during the rally!
Participation is free of charge, but registration is required.
Teachers are kindly asked to register their class by e-mail by 23 September.

Learning German while having fun is the aim of these workshops, which are organised by the German Embassy, the Embassy of Liechtenstein, dasKULTURforum Antwerpen and the Junges THEATER Liechtenstein in secondary schools in Liège, Antwerp and Brussels. In these workshops, students learn the basics of theatre techniques, body language and expression with the help of Junges Theater Liechtenstein teachers. A great opportunity to learn how to express yourself in German without even realising it! Students will also have the opportunity to learn more about Liechtenstein, its culture and its history. The programme for 2025 is already fully booked. If you are interested in a theatre workshop at your school next year or would like more information, please contact Ms. Sarah Diffels: ku-101-di@brue.auswaertiges-amt.de (Please note that this programme is only available to Belgian public schools)
On Tuesday, October 7, the HHH Oktoberfest will take place. This event is organized as part of the German Language Week and celebrates the official inclusion of our school in the PASCH network, which we joined last school year.
During the lunch break, everyone is warmly invited to participate in various games. There will also be food stands offering German snacks, managed by the students. The proceeds will go towards the 12th grade’s trip to Berlin.
At that time, the Heilig-Hart Institute will officially be inaugurated as a PASCH school, and there will be a performance by spoken word artist Jessy James LaFleur in the main hall.
In the afternoon, she will also hold a workshop for the students.
It’s sure to be a great celebration, and we hope to see you all there!
See you then!

Nebensache – secondary matter
A theatre play – for all, ages 6 and up
A Secondary matter. A commonplace story. A story without headline.
Every night, Cornelius sleeps in a different place. Today he wakes up in a corner of a room. It could perhaps be a class room. He is just passing through. He is always on a journey. He is roaming the land, as he has no home made of stone or wood or concrete or ice. His home is the being-on-the-move and the people he encounters.
He possesses nothing, except for a miserable pram. That was not always the case. But now, he stores his few poor possessions and his story in this pram. It is this story that he tells every one who wants to hear it. It is a story about luck and about what you need to be happy. About possession and loss. About debts and guilt. About farmers and banks. About hopelessness and the courage to make a fresh start.
After he has told his story, he hits the road again. Tomorrow, Cornelius will wake up in another room. Maybe it is a theatre.
Nebensache is a production of the AGORA Theatre (Sankt Vith, Belgium) based on the play Nebensache by Jakob Mendel & Gitte Kath, translated by Volker Quandt (1994) and published by Harlekin Theaterverlag (Tübingen). The play is directed by Kurt Pothen and performed by Roland Schumacher.
When? Wednesday, October 16, 2024 at 6 p.m. (admission from 5:30 p.m.)
Please register via email at dg.bruessel@dgov.be until 9 October.
