I arrived in Berlin when the present school year had already started and was told I had to buy all the text books myself for ds and dd which i did, cost under 100euro.
Today I got a letter, to say I could join the school book fund and pay 50 euro giving my child the right to borrow the text books but would have to return them to school at the end of the year. I don't get it, why join? I wrote a note to say I would be buying my own books. A couple of books can be passed down from ds to dd as they are in year 1 and 2 going into 2 and 3. Yet another unlogical happening concerning the school system here in Germany!
