Book Club

We are a friendly group of school parents who meet every 4-6 weeks 10:30-11:15h to discuss our book of the month. Any member of the group is welcome to suggest the next book which can be older or newer, fact or fiction, but needs to be a German-language text. The discussion will also be held in German.

There's no need for a degree in literature (although that's okay too), but if you love reading and sharing your ideas, you've come to the right place.

Please contact us if you have any questions.
