In the heart of our school community, two stars emerged in the last academic year, capturing the essence of kindness and selflessness. They were recognized with the prestigious Primary and Secondary Manfred Langer Award, and their stories serve as a testament to the power of empathy and compassion.
I’ve been part of the FIS community for a fantastic six years now, being a full-time part of this community for the last year. Becoming part of the FIS is an interesting story.
Three years ago, I started my musical journey with a simple yet ambitious goal: to learn how to play the piano.
“My musical journey started in Grade 3 when I picked up the violin. Within a year, I had been introduced to the allure of the viola, an instrument that has since become an integral part of my life.”
I started playing tennis when I was just four, and now I play for FC Nürnberg.
With three distinct acoustic guitars, a trusty travel companion that accompanies me wherever I go, and a cherished mandolin gifted to me, I have a love for the captivating melodies of the guitar.
About five years ago, I lost a friend in a drowning accident. My friend was more like a younger sibling to me at that time, and the loss was devastating. Ever since, I wanted to raise awareness about water safety, particularly among children.
