Advent wreaths from Gießhübl: Tradition meets creative student manuscript!

The technical school Gießhübl is all about festive preparations: In the past few weeks, school students have enthusiastically made adventurous wreaths to celebrate the upcoming Christmas season. As part of a solemn act, director Thomas Krenn presented two of these lovingly designed wreaths to Bildungsrätin Christiane Teschl-Hofmeister. This emphasized the cultural importance of the Advent wreath, which symbolizes the coming of the "light of the world" with its four candles. "The Advent Kranez brings rest and reflection to the hectic pre-Christmas period," continues Teschl-Hofmeister, while she praised the manual skill of the students, who can gain valuable experience through this tradition, such as OTS reported.
