"We're Going to Berlin": Class 6a Takes First Place in Nationwide Class Competition - Steinmühle

Right in the middle of the Christmas break, we received some fantastic news: René Schulenberg’s Class 6a won first place in the “Class Competition” category of “Math in Advent” among all 6th-grade classes! The “Schulenbergies” achieved the best results in their grade level across all federal states in the digital math Advent challenge.

Principal Björn Gemmer was among the very first to offer his congratulations and gushed, “That’s fantastic!”

This victory is truly fantastic for the sixth graders, as it also means that the entire class has been invited to the awards ceremony on January 26 in Berlin. A major math event will take place at the Max Kade Auditorium at Freie Universität Berlin, featuring an awards ceremony for all winners, music, games, and entertainment. There will be plenty to discover at a math fair. A total of 1,000 people are expected to attend.

“Mathe im Advent” is a digital Advent calendar and math competition for students in grades 4 through 9, organized by the nonprofit Mathe im Leben GmbH.
