In many Federal states school has already started again. In some states, the vacations are still in full swing, and in some, school starts again today. A new school year, especially on the first day, always means that you have to equip yourself with some new things before you are ready for the first day of school.

Where Does School Start Again Today And Who Is Still On Vacation?

In Hamburg, North Rhine-Westphalia, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia school has already started again, Berlin, Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Schleswig-Holstein start the new school year today on Monday. Only students in Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, Bremen, Hesse, Lower Saxony, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland will have longer vacations. Students in Bavaria are the very last to start the new school year, with school not starting again until September 14.

What Do You Need For The Start Of The New School Year?

As a student, you should take another look at your school backpack or school bag before the first day of school begins. First, you need enough pencils or a new fountain pen. Then, it’s very important to buy a new writing pad and possibly new notebooks so you can keep up with everything. And if new school books are needed, you or your parents will be told today. If you are still in a good mood and are looking forward to seeing your friends again after the vacation and are eager to learn new things in this new school year, then you are well prepared for the start of school.

Explanation Of The Difficult Words

Germany is divided into a total of 16 Federal states. In each state, school vacations are regulated differently and also start at different times and end differently late.
