Early Years and Primary School Clubs

Students must wear P.E. shoes (non-marking, clean indoor shoes) and appropriate, functional clothing.

In this club, we will be exploring beloved, traditional, and new comic books and explore and create our inner personal super hero! We will also be drawing our own comic book and design heroes, villains, and side characters in the process.

Please note that Ms Majetschak has relocated her after school tutoring to BBS (Monday & Wednesday). The club has existing participants and therefore less places available. However, she is still accepting registrations with the understanding that a waiting list place may be offered, with a possibility of joining later in the term. Ms Majetschak is also offering different days and times at her learning center. To find out more about KUMON and to register your child please use this link.

Indoor shoes are required until the big tens covering the tennis courts get taken down in spring. Students should also wear weather appropriate and functional clothing.

The students meet the tennis coach after school has finished infront of the small gym. Younger students like K3 and Grade 1 will be picked up by Ms Canty from their classroom. The bus shuttle leaves from Primary School around 15:45.

Parents pick-up their child/children directly from tennis courts at 17:00 from VfK Berlin, Maikäferpfad 36, 14055 Berlin. If you are running late please call 030 35109 192 or send an email to Ms Canty.

My name is Leslie, and I’m a Hip Hop dancer with three years of experience teaching kids and teenagers in various dance clubs and organizations. Dance has always been my favorite way to create, express, and connect. To me, dancing is a universal language we can all understand without using words.

My Dance Club is all about energy, confidence, and creativity. We explore Hip Hop foundations, learn fun choreography, play with musicality, and encourage every child to discover their own unique style. It’s all about growth, teamwork, and good vibes!

My goal is for every student to leave class feeling stronger, more confident, and proud of what they can do. By the end of the course, they’ll put together a full choreography they can share with excitement.

Let’s dance, create, and have an amazing time together!

Please note that there will be no Dance Club on February 3rd and February 10th.

Our Martial Arts Class is specially designed for children in Grades 2 to 5, led by our certified Outdoor Kids coaches in a playful and respectful environment.

The curriculum at this crochet club encompasses not only the technical aspects of crocheting, such as using a crochet hook and working with yarn, but also the opportunity for students to bring their own creative visions and projects to life. In addition to experimenting with and modifying the intermediate results of your own project in line with the final objective, you will also have the opportunity to explore and test innovative approaches to sustainability. Any remaining threads can be repurposed as filling material for three-dimensional bodies or tied together into a long thread and used as a new, colourful thread for a new project. Alternative solutions are also developed when implementing our own visions. New design options outside of the actual project are also discovered and explored. In addition, the students learn about and experiment with different types of wool and yarn.

My name is Lisa Grodek, I am a full-time international crochet designer and artist with 27 years of crochet experience. I have 5 years of teaching experience in schools for grades 1-10 and work as a lecturer in adult education in the field of textile design/crochet for basic and advanced courses, as well as for the further training course 'Crochet in Design Teaching', which is recognised as professional further training under the Berlin Education Time Act. It is important to me to continue my education in the field of pedagogy, for example through further education courses, some of which are run in cooperation with the Free University of Berlin.

My aim is to inspire young people in particular to take up traditional handicrafts such as crochet and to accompany them on their individual and creative path to their own crochet project.

Chess exercise book available for € 8 with Mr Neumann.

Students must wear P.E. shoes (non-marking, clean indoor shoes) and appropriate, functional clothing.

Coordination and balance is an idea from sports and training science and offers comprehensive, age-appropriate sports exercises to train, improve and develop in a playful way (motor exercises, psycho-motor challenges, sensory activities) the basic motorskills. The aim is to increase the children's willingness to exercise in the long term and to encourage their enthusiasm for exercise and sport. These goals are achieved through the pedagogical method of mastery-based learning, so that the children feel no pressure.

Coordination is scientifically defined as the interaction of skeletal muscle and brain and consists of 7 skills: Reaction, orientation, adaptability, differentiation, coupling, rhythm and balance. It is therefore the most important motor and sporting ability.

Coordination and balance is therefore not only a child-friendly introduction to sport, but also a parallel and complete supplement to all types of sport, compensation for the daily lack of movement, injury prevention, movement experience and preparation for later high-performance sport. Exciting challenge, motivation, participation, helpfulness and humour are our secrets to inspire children for 60 minutes.
