The students' commitment to the nationwide Reading Aloud Day has a lasting effect

The story began on 18 November 2022, when students in the Childhood Education, B.A. degree programme read to all the fourth graders from the Willibrord School on the Kleve campus as part of the National Reading Day. Shortly before Christmas, Lisa Reefmann and Nico Mustafic received a big envelope from the fox class they had read to: All the children had sent them a personal thank-you letter praising the great experience and the exciting detective story. The two students, together with their lecturer Renate Schmitz-Gebel, were so impressed by this that they came up with something very special: They wanted to visit the class and their teacher Mrs Roelofs in their own classroom and surprise them with a story they had invented themselves. Nico Mustafic had written it as part of Renate Schmitz-Gebel's course "Children's Literature and Storytelling Workshop": "At Home in the Tree".
