Anniversary festival of VS St. Michael: A festival for strong children!

St. Michael, Österreich - On June 1, 2025, the St. Michael elementary school celebrates an important anniversary party that recognizes the continuous development and special achievements of the school. The educational institution, which has played an important role in the village since 1970, has established itself with 123 students in eight classes and a dedicated team of 12 teachers. The lead motif "Strong children - strong for life" underlines the focus of the school on individual potential, social responsibility and democratic education.

The school recently invested in modern facilities to create an optimal learning environment. The structural renewal, which began in 2024, comprised an investment of around 962,000 euros, which contributes to functionality and security, with 566,000 euros from the Carinthian educational structure. Vice Mayor Alexander Radl emphasizes that a modern, barrier -free environment is crucial for the development of every child.

The general renovation, which was completed in 2004, was supplemented by the current renewal. The modernization includes the renovation of the gymnasium, new windows, a heat -insulated facade and barrier -free access. Interactive plates and modern WLAN infrastructures were installed to enable students to provide future-oriented education. Headmistress Christina Baumgartner emphasizes the importance of promoting professional skills and personal development areas in such a environment.

The 4B class was selected to take part in the “super class” children's show produced by the ORF. The recording takes place in the gymnasium and the broadcast is planned for September on ORF 1. This shows the school's commitment to create exciting learning opportunities that go beyond regular lessons.

The anniversary festival on June 6, 2025 offers an opportunity for the school community to celebrate this important milestone. The celebrations begin with a tour of the school building from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. A joint train to the festival hall with musical accompaniment is then planned at 3:15 p.m. The festival program in the festival hall starts at 4 p.m. and includes numerous musical and dance contributions as well as speeches.
