Today, democracy was on the timetable at the German School Nairobi in a very practical way: our students in grades 5–12 elected their new student council (SV).
17 enthusiastic candidates presented their ideas—ranging from cafeteria issues and lost and found to digital questions and the desire for more say in school decisions.
Principal Jörg Isenbeck opened the election by pointing out that at DSN, we not only teach democracy, but also live it.
The student council consists of five elected students and plays an important role in school life: it raises concerns, represents the interests of fellow students, and actively helps shape the school.
The results will be announced on Monday – but one thing is already clear: Your Voice Matters!
