Eisbjerghus Efterskole
We all believe our school is amazing. Eisbjerghus is a boarding school, placed in a small city called Nørre Åby. The school is placed 300 metres from the train station and 2 minutes from the centre of the city.
Boarding schools in Denmark are called “efterskoler”. A boarding school is a place where you study and live at the same time. Of course we’re allowed to go home in the weekends and holidays, but we stay here all week studying, living, being with our friends and having fun at the same time.
Right now there are about 263 boarding schools in Denmark and 28.500 young people living there.
So, our School is, as I mentioned before, called Eisbjerghus Efterskole. Right now, we are 124 students, 53 boys and 71 girls. We live in separate rooms of 3 and 4 pupils.
We have 18 teachers here and about 25-30 different subjects such as language, creative subjects and sport.
We’re very eager to be an international school. We travel twice a year. 1 trip where the whole school travels together and then an exchange trip, where we live with a host family in different countries. This year we’re going to Spain, France, Germany, Poland, Lithuania and Italy.
So far, I think these last 4 weeks has been the most amazing weeks ever. And it’s crazy because it already
feels like we’ve been here for years. I love life on a boarding school! J
