We drink water and save our environment


Ice tea, coke and lemonade - unhealthy, but still found in many schoolbags of our youngsters. To take measures against that problem and to support a healthy drinking behaviour of our pupils, we decided to participate in a project from the charitable organisation a tip: tap. The organisation sponsored a drinking water fountain to fill our bottles with water and, at the same time, organised workshops on water usage and water issues.
Since the beginning of this school year, our fountain stands in the centre of our entrance hall. More and more pupils, as well as teachers, are using the fountain to fill up their bottles with clean, fresh and healthy water. In addition, they avoid plastic bottles, because many of them have bought bottles of steel from our school company „Schmids Druck Studio“. This company - operated by pupils and one teacher of our school - is a studio for print products like t-shirts, bottles, cups and bags. All of the products are made from sustainable materials or materials which save our environment. The bottles are printed with the name of its user, the logo of our school and the logo of our sponsor a tip: tap. So the two sustainable projects complement each other.
