Greetings from Klosterneuburg




My pupils just started working on maps about the countries and making posters.


We are looking forward to the visit in Turkey.


So have a look out of our windows on snowy Klosterneuburg.


Have a good time

Recipes from Daniela

Wiener Schnitzel

Ingredients (for 4 people)
• four escalopes of around 120 grams each

To apply the Breadcrumbs:
• flour
• 2 eggs
• breadcrumbs
• salt / pepper
• oil or lard for frying

The escalopes will need to be pounded until the meat is around a 1/4 of an inch thick. Make sure to trim the edges of the meat carefully.
Lightly season the escalopes with salt and pepper. You will need three shallow bowls - 1 for the eggs, 1 for flour and 1 for breadcrubs. Dip the escalopes in the flour first, then in the whisked egg and then in the breadcrumbs. Be careful to ensure that the the entire escalope is completely covered with the breadcrumbs.
Place the escalopes in a hot frying pan, the oil in the pan should be deep enough that the schnitzel's float whilst cooking. Cooking time should not be more than 4 minutes for each side.
Remember to serve hot with fresh lemon and potato salad Viennese style!



Kaiserschmarrn


Ingredients (for 4 people)
• 6 eggs
• 200 grams cake or pastry flour
• 50 grams sugar
• 250 milliliters milk
• pinch of salt
• 20 grams or raisins
• butter
• powdered sugar
• plum or apple puree

Separate the egg whites from yolks.
Thoroughly mix the yolks, sugar, milk and flour.
Add a pinch of salt to the egg whites and beat until stiff.
Add stiff egg whites into the dough and fold carefully.
Melt butter in a large pan, pour in the dough and sprinkle in raisins. Let cook on one side for a few minutes, turn over and tear into pieces with a fork.
Be careful not to overcook the pancakes, otherwise they will dry out. Sprinkle powdered sugar and serve with plum or apple puree.

Hello Dear Friends,

After returning from that wonderful meeting at Hania, I checked my photos and films and couldn´t resist publishing this small video I did at 1st Liceo of Hania, when the students kindly danced for the whole group.

Congratulations to the teachers and many thanks to the students.

Take a look!

Kisses from sunny Portugal,

Manuela Galante

Servus from Himberg, Austria!

Dear friends,

I was assigned to make a short report of our work.

We choose two classes one from fifth and sixth grade each to work on this project. They got two schooldays to find out, what is special about Austria (5th grade) and what is special in their every days life (6th grade). The 6th grade wrote letters in English and German - and one in Turkish, and they took pictures. I mixed the letters together to make one, which I put with the pictures in a PowerPoint presentation.

I'm looking forward seeing you all in Hania.
Yours, Daniela

Greetings from Snowy England


Dear friends,

I hope this works...

I thought I would share with you the view I had when I tried to get into school this morning.  Our school was shut today due to heavy snow, so I had to turn back home again!
We are really looking forward to our visit - and getting away from the cold!

See you all very soon,

Jo, England
