The origins of grilling go back to the open fire, the number one type of cooking across all cultures. “At home, parents mostly grill, so kids aren’t allowed to do that. It’s a great co-experience and good for team spirit,” says Roland Schwenk. “It’s chopped, mixed, marinated, grilled and then eaten together. And it’s great that even the smallest manipulation leads to a sense of accomplishment.”

Blankincer Elementary School student Nick as mediator
Nick is nominated for this honor because he is considered a respected moderator in the schoolyard. “When another boy is teasing and chasing after him, I step in, you can treat each other wisely,” says the fifth grader. He enjoyed grilling, especially slicing. “At home, I also help my mother chop vegetables,” he says.

While some pulled the first finished flambé tart from the grill, some girls worked with crayons and paper. Others were walking around on a rope or taking a break in the schoolyard. The fact that meat and sausage were not used when grilling was fine with most of them.

School social worker Laura Koslowski from the regional association Awo in Southern Brandenburg accompanied the girls and boys to their barbecue. “It’s good for kids to experience something other than sitting in class,” she says. “It would also be nice to have a cooking group at the school, but that’s difficult because of the bus times.”
