Boarding School Rules 17
Activities, get-togethers and special events In the course of the year there are a number of events for the boarding school pupils and personnel: Introductory Party, Martinmas Eve, Christmas, Aeroe Night, and Goodbye Party etc. The parties represent a tradition and are important for good fellowship at the boarding school and you are expected to take part in them. Every year at Martinmas we also arrange a Parents’ Day and there is an annual Graduation Dinner for graduating pupils and their parents. The dates for these events appear on the boarding school calendar which can be found on the web page of the boarding school. In addition to the above, we arrange trips to the theatre, sporting and music events, study groups, and activities for the members of each corridor.
Leisure time activities
In their leisure time the pupils have access to the boarding school’s exercise rooms, the school’s sports facilities and the boarding school’s music room which is fully equipped with sound systems etc. Before using the music room you need instructions in the use of the sound system etc. Pupils who have chosen visual arts as a B-levelcourse can use the school’s art room. Also, the boarding school has a number of board games, table football, and a billiard table. The teacher on duty will lend you the keys to the
amenities (the music room, the art room, and the sports facilities). The key must be returned to the teacher no later than 10 p.m. The school’s extra-curricular courses after normal school hours in art, drama, sport, music, and choir practise are also good ways of spending leisure time. The many sports and cultural amenities for young people offered by the Municipality of Nyborg are also open to you. Information on these can be had from the boarding school teachers.
Private get-togethers
On Fridays and Saturdays after 7 p.m. the teacher on duty can give a few pupils permission to drink beer, wine or mixers (such as Bacardi Breezers) in moderate quantities in one of the rooms. The pupils must make a list of the names of the persons involved and put down the number of the room in which they are. The teacher on duty decides how many people can participate in the get-together and the amount of alcohol which can be drunk. By 10.45 p.m. the room must be cleaned and there must be quiet. Bottles and other packing are to be removed no later than 10 a.m. on the following day.
Corridor get-togethers
If pupils wish to have a social gathering or a dinner for their corridor on Fridays or Saturdays, permission must be required from the teacher on duty, and thereafter the kitchen must be informed whether or not the pupils involved will be taking
