Student Spotlights: Spotlight On Our Student Felicia
Spotlight On Our Student Felicia
With a big heart for others! Felicia, in Grade 6, is an exceptionally positive, caring, and active student.
Not only does she bring joy to others by singing in the school choir and being part of our modern dance group, but she is also committed to helping others through her wonderful sawing skills in the “Heart 2 Heart” charity project. This project, initially started by American International Women’s Club of Düsseldorf (AIWCD), makes heart-shaped pillows for breast cancer patients, as a way to spread joy and help relieve pain while patients are in the hospital. Felicia has showed enthusiasm for the Heart 2 Heart project and works hard each week.
We are proud to spotlight Felicia, one of many of ISR’s outstanding students!
Our “Student Spotlight” project aims to highlight every Friday one of our outstanding students who is, appropriate to this year’s theme, “Staying Ahead”. No matter if academic achievements, special commitment, or outstanding character traits – we look forward to sharing each of these success stories.

Field Trip to Museum Kunstpalast
Field Trip to Museum Kunstpalast
Thursday, 24 January 2019
Last Wednesday Grades 4 A and B visited the museum Kunstpalast in Düsseldorf. They participated in two different guided tours: First one was called “Achtung Kunst-Viren!” (Warning! Art Virus).
During this tour, the students were provided with an overview of artworks from different countries in Europe, Japan and the Islamic art realm. The overview demonstrated exciting signs of cultural transfer and intercultural dialogue.
The second guided tour was called “Chemie der Farbe” (Chemistry of Colors) and showed how artists and painters can turn into chemists and scientists. The old masters of painting have always experimented with different ways of obtaining colour. This time around, it is the students’ turn to try their hand at candle wax painting using elderberry juice, lemon juice and salt.
The whole museum visit showed students that art is in no way boring but a lively experience and an interesting way of expressing oneself.

Student Spotlights: Spotlight On Our ISR Sound Crew
Spotlight On Our ISR Sound Crew
Our Sound & Stage Engineering Crew, Merlin 7A, Yixin 7B and Camren 8B, are part of a new SLO® team who have an interest in looking at the technical side of performances.
After spending time exploring the school’s sound system the team did an amazing job assisting the Winter Concert performances from KG through Grade 5. In addition to providing the technical support for each concert, the team learned how to deal with the pressures of live performances. The Sound & Stage Engineering Crew is already an invaluable asset to our school in supporting any event where sound & staging is required!
We are proud to spotlight Merlin, Yixin and Camren, three of many of ISR’s outstanding students!

Student Spotlights: Spotlight On Our Student Jolina
Spotlight On Our Student Jolina
A star in school and a star on stage! Jolina has been at ISR since Kindergarten and is now in Grade 7. She loves to dance and sing and just played one of the main characters in the SLO® Drama Club’s Christmas production of “Elf”.
She worked very hard to prepare herself and her peers for their performance and was always one of the first actors to memorize her lines. Both performances, the one here at school and the one at the International English Library in Düsseldorf, were a huge success. As she dreams of becoming an actress Jolina also continues to deliver high results in school and keep a positive attitude.
We are proud to spotlight Jolina, one of many of ISR’s outstanding students!

The Nutcracker
Monday, 07 January 2019
Before the holiday break Musicbox Oxana (Büderich and Neuss) performed ” The Nutcracker” with artistic support from the ISR International School on the Rhine at the C. Bechstein Centrum Düsseldorf.
The children-only fairy tale was supported by ISR’s Young Artist Group and Creative Minds groups who decorated the concert halls in a hand-painted “Nutcracker” motif. The group started preparing the music, dancing, and acting several months ago helping to ensure the performance was a big success. From the actors, dancers, and musicians, everyone did a fantastic job! Great work everyone!
Student Spotlights: Spotlight On Our Student Philipp
Spotlight On Our Student Philipp
Phillipp plays the drums, guitar, and piano and he is a member of the ISR Rock Band. Being a talented drummer, he has already participated in various music competitions in the Düsseldorf area.
His last competition was “Jugend Musiziert”, where he won first place in Rhein-Kreis Neuss and second place at the national level. In German, we would say “die Musik steckt ihm im Blut” or “music is in his blood”.
Philip’s talents also include acting. Most recently, Philip played a role in the musical “The Nutcracker”. We are pretty impressed, Philipp you rock!
