Christian baum introduced himself briefly: he studied trumpet and conducting in switzerland, where he also spent several years professionally. He has been back in france since 2012.

Increasing demand for all-day schooling increases staffing needs

Increasing demand for all-day schooling increases staffing needs

The budget of 36,000 euros available for the all-day school in adelsdorf is far from sufficient. In order to meet the staffing requirements, an additional 9,000 euros per year is needed, explained gabriele monius, principal of the secondary school, during a visit by the committee for associations, culture, social affairs and education. Mayor karsten fischkal () made it clear that concessions were difficult, as this would arouse desires of other schools and kindergartens. For the planning of the next budget, therefore, a concept should first be created and presented. In the absence of a chamber, the budget was decided only in the first quarter of the coming year.

Headmistress monika grimm also sees staffing problems due to the large number of children attending the open all-day school. While only six groups were originally planned, there are now nine with a total of 130 children who are accommodated and cared for. The staff has already been increased, but it is not enough.

Rose ball of the caritas-circle association was the 31. And the last one she organized before her retirement and everything went like clockwork – even the snow didn’t start falling until sunday morning, when all the ball guests had long since returned home safe and sound.

"We take this as a sign that the rose ball has arrived here at the oberaurach center (OAZ)", caritas district chairman johannes simon was also delighted. The dancers even come from the lower main to the social ball of the caritas habberge, which was once initiated by klaus diedering in his function as district manager. The ball was moved to the OAZ when the franz-hofmann hall in knetzgau was closed down. In the first two years, the response was a little weaker, but the excellent danceable parquet floor quickly got around among the dance enthusiasts.
