ISR Cooking Camp 2024
Looking back: ISR Cooking Camp 2024
Tuesday, 9 July 2024
Last week, our popular ISR Cooking Camp again took place on our campus, conducted by our renowned school caterer, Broich Catering.
The week began with an introduction where the participating children and the Broich team got to know each other. Additionally, essential safety and hygiene guidelines for working in a professional large-scale kitchen were conveyed.
With great enthusiasm, the children prepared diverse dishes daily using fresh, organically grown ingredients, which they subsequently enjoyed together. The menu for the week included potato casserole with vegetables, homemade pasta and pizza, freshly baked bread, healthy fruit ice cream, and much more. A special highlight was the excursion to Frenkenhof in Meerbusch. There, the children gained an in-depth insight into agricultural work processes and were able to actively participate in potato harvesting. The harvested potatoes were later processed into homemade chips, vividly demonstrating to the children the journey from cultivation to product.
The crowning finale was the Family Dinner on the last day of the camp. The children prepared a delicious three-course menu, crafted creative menu cards and name tags, and lovingly decorated the tables. The parents were delighted with the dinner and the delicious dishes, in which the children invested much time and effort during preparation.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire team from Broich Catering for the professional execution of another successful ISR Cooking Camp and are already looking forward to next year.

This year, our summer break started with another successful ISR Sports Camp on our ISR Campus in Neuss.
Around 100 children experienced a variety of sports activities throughout the week, organized into age-appropriate groups. In addition to participating in popular sports like soccer, basketball, floorball, badminton, volleyball, and tennis; the children went on exciting excursions to a climbing park in Viersen, the Climbing Church in Mönchengladbach, the BEROs Children’s World in Neuss, and Cosmo Sport – a sports and leisure center in Düsseldorf. Everyone used these outings to joyfully showcase their athletic talents in various areas. In addition, during our ISR Sports Camp, the children had the opportunity to practice gymnastics, Capoeira, dance, and yoga as part of “Mindful Time”. The week saw the weather playing along and some cooling off in our spacious schoolyard was a must, creating fun for all the children!
A very successful and sporty week is behind the participants. We wish to extend our heartfelt thanks to our entire ISR Sports Team, supervisors, and supporting teachers who made the camp week an unforgettable experience for the children!

This year, the first week of our summer break once again saw the popular ISR Art Camp take place under bright sunshine. The camp was led, as in previous years, by Ms. Schulenberg, a former ISR Parent and long-time partner of ISR. A total of 13 students participated in the camp and enjoyed an exciting week where creativity knew no bounds!
The week started with an introduction and an icebreaker game to help all the children get to know each other. During the camp, the children experimented with various materials such as wood, canvases and cardboard and using acrylic paints. They also created collages, sculpted different figures, and explored using many different painting techniques.
The entire week was a lot of fun for all the children, allowing them to showcase and further develop their artistic talents. The highlight of the week was the annual art exhibition, which served as a wonderful conclusion. It was attended by parents, family, friends and ISR Teachers. At the exhibition, the children presented their created artworks, and the guests could admire their impressive works from the camp while enjoying delicious snacks and drinks. The visit by participants from the ISR Sports Camp added another special touch to the day.
We wish to extend our sincere thanks to Ms. Schulenberg for organizing another successful ISR Art Camp and are already looking forward to its continuation next year!
