Following a welcome address by Kristin Pohl, headteacher of the Gesamtschule Emmerich, and a speech by the mayor of Emmerich, Claudia Lindlahr, the awards were presented to the (re)certified schools by the head of department at the Bezirksregierung, Sylvia Wimmershoff.
Not only did the Euregio Rhine-Meuse-North and the Euregio Rhine-Waal offer their warm congratulations to the schools, but the Bezirksregierung Düsseldorf was also delighted to be present on this day and to contribute to the festivities with some amusing facts about the Dutch and Germans.
At the end of the event, there was a guided tour of the exhibition ‘Euregional education at our school’, organised by several schools (Städtische Gesamtschule Kempen, Gesamtschule am Lauerhaas, Berufskolleg Kleve, Gymnasium Straelen, Liemers College).
