SUMMERFEST INVITATION 2024
Dear Students, Parents and Teachers,
As announced in previous communications, the PA would like to invite you to enjoy a day of fun and activities during the ESF Summerfest on the 15th of June from 11 am until 3 pm, celebrating the end of another school year with family, friends, and the school community.
Many activities are planned for all age groups (e.g. tournaments, performances, orchestra etc.) and there will be a Food Square again with plenty of stands, representing 16 nationalities.
Please see our programme with details for each activity, as well as house rules (German version).
Please kindly note that:
- Additional important information regarding the event's organisation (how to register, eating and drinking, parking) is available below. Please read it carefully!
- The map and programme is now available.
- To register for the Basketball Games where teachers play vs parents vs students, please use the link listed below.
A kind request: to ensure a smooth and safe running of the Summerfest, we are still looking for volunteers who could help before, during and at the end of the event. There are a number of areas such as: at the Soccer tournament, the Basketball game, the set-up of food stands, selling at the PA drinks stand, supervision of a specific area, etc. If you can help during the event, please kindly click on this link: Helpers Registration
You can choose your area and time slot. If many people volunteer, we will only need your help for a limited time. Many thanks in advance for your support; we count on you!
If you would like to join the teams for the Basketball Games, then please click on the link to register: Parents' registration for friendly basketball matches vs. S5-S7 students- 2024
We are looking forward to spending a wonderful day with you!
Best regards,
The Summerfest Team (Maria Rösel, Thomas Jaeger, Linda Boros, Murat Cosgun, Francesca Del Re, Agnes Tomè, Floriana Grimaldi, Rugile Anuzyte) on behalf of the ESF Parents’ Association

How to join the event/ registration:
To conform to security rules, all visitors and participants of the event must register before being allowed on school premises.
To register, please use the event link advertised in Classlist. If you are not on Classlist yet, you can join using the following link: Classlist Registration
Please register all the members of your family who will join the event on June 15th, by selecting a corresponding number of tickets. At the entrance, you will be asked to show the tickets on your mobile device (in the Classlist app) or in a printed version.
When registering, you will be asked for a voluntary donation of € 3,00 per adult which will help to offset a portion of the event costs. Please note that the donation is not mandatory but very much appreciated. The donation can be added to your basket and the registration then completed by credit card.
The Summerfest is the biggest event organised by the PA, for the entire school community. It is funded mainly through the existing PA budget but your contributions allow us to maintain funds for other projects that benefit ESF students and their families.
Drinking and eating
National specialities will be served at the food stands organised by parents and teachers. The PA will serve drinks in two different locations.
Cash can be used to purchase all food and beverage (no chips will be used this year). As with donations, all food and beverage revenues will be allocated to fund projects to benefit ESF students.
Parking
Please, note that the school parking lot will be closed and parking directly at school will be challenging. It is therefore recommended to take public transportation where possible. If arriving by car, it is prohibited to block any entrances, emergency exits or narrow streets (such as the one leading to the Ernst-Reuter-Schule). Any cars creating an obstruction may be towed. The best option is to leave the car in the Nord West Zentrum and walk to the school premises.
House Rules
Please take note of our binding set of house rules (here in English and German) drawn up by the Security Officer of the School, with the intention to keep students and families happy and safe during the Summerfest.
