Katja Braun 01 MÄNNERSTIMMEN MEN'S VOICES The Ecolianer | Magazin der Ecole d’Humanité ON THE ROLE OF TEENAGE MEN IN THE ECOLE AND SOCIETY IN GENERAL ANONYMOUS, current student In the last fifty years or so, a whole lot has changed concerning the treatment of the genders, and most of the changes have definitely been for the better. However, there is a serious lack of change regarding the way people tend to find their sexual/ romantic partners. Short flings and purely sexual partnerships are now regarded as almost if not completely normal, yet it is still expected that the man takes the lead in the process that leads up to sexual encounters. Our society also tends to preach sexual openness, while in grave consequences for both of the parties involved, such as reality, a sense of prudishness and a general lack of commu- trauma or other psychological problems for the one whose nication, quite common among teenagers anyway, are mak- boundaries have been crossed, and for the person crossing ing a comeback.

Such inadvertent crossing of boundaries could lead to 02 MÄNNERSTIMMEN Ausgabe 06/2019 MEN'S VOICES A LITTLE SPACE FOR YOURSELF EIN BISSCHEN PLATZ FÜR DICH ELIAS EMÖDI, KA since 2018 I’ve written this text about something that is really dear to me. About opening up and showing vulnerability. I love when people cry. It might sound peculiar, but let me tell you why I love it. It’s not because of their reason to cry, but because they are crying right now. It’s like a glimpse into their soul. They let a part of their pain go, be it just a tiny bit. Your being tells you at that moment, “hey stop suppressing me, and stop lying about me. You’re not feeling well, you’ve been hurt, let it out, let go.” Crying is finally standing up for your- self and letting love in by not suppressing yourself anymore, and gifting it and yourself some space. But if I cry, I feel and I am vulnerable… Everyone is vulnera- ble. Every single one of us. Some have just forgotten or they ignore their own hurt, and are pretty genius at hiding it. Let’s stop acting like machines, everyone is human, why deny it? Just because you’re vulnerable, doesn’t mean you’re weak. Isn’t real strength accepting your feelings and taking that we sometimes forget that we’re hiding. I for myself an honest look at yourself?

I find it sad that we live in a world where we think we need Yes, it’s scary, and it is meant to be so, but the reward is to hide all the time, and where this has become so normal worth much more than its price. Learning that I wasn’t alone, and seeing vulnerabilities in not just myself but others too, touched me deeply, and made me rethink, and it opened a little place in my heart for them. I came to understand that we’re not as different as we think, or as I thought at that time. That’s what love is about, right? How can somebody love you if you don’t open up, if you don’t show yourself.

  • Years 7, 8 and 9 – Academic Overview
    Years 7, 8 and 9 Academic Information 2018 – 2019 1 Years 7, 8 and 9 – Academic Overview Enabling each individual student to achieve academic success and develop a passion for life-long learning and discovery are key objectives at La Garenne. The boarding environment ensures the stability and structure necessary for each child to thrive and develop. Parallel to this, the academic life of the school provides each individual student with stimulating and challenging programmes of study. The small class sizes favour a personalised approach to teaching, based on inquiry and investigative learning. For Years 7, 8 and 9, the curriculum is underpinned by the objectives of UK English Key Stage 3 programme, particularly in the Core Subjects - English, Mathematics and Science. As an international school, we aim to prepare our students for their academic futures in the world of international education and for life beyond school. With this in mind, since September 2017 the students in Years 7, 8 and 9 have been following the International Middle Years Curriculum (IMYC). This internationally recognised curriculum provides the perfect platform for further study when the students move on to senior school. The IMYC is a rigorous, concept-based programme, which has been specifically designed around the unique learning needs and brain functions of adolescents. The students are challenged and supported in their learning, in the development of their own personal dispositions and international mindedness. Further details on the IMYC can be found at: http://www.greatlearning.com/imyc or by following the link at the end of this section. In the IMYC programme, students are taught by specialist teachers in all subject areas.
