New Weather Station at Nature Campus: Learning from the Sky
Our new digital weather station at Mügelsee records temperature, pressure, humidity, rainfall, wind speed and direction in real time. Thanks to the support of our IT-Team the data is transmitted to the cloud and can be accessed via an app or website.
Students are encouraged to regularly observe and work with the data—both directly at Müggelsee and soon also in lessons at Campus Mitte. From math and science to geography, the weather station offers students the chance to explore real-world data and engage with climate patterns hands-on.
Want to know how cold it really got this winter? The station recorded a chilly -12°C on February 18!
The collected data is publicly available via the Davis Weatherlink platform—perfect for curious minds and future scientists.

Bilingual Abitur and the Middle School Certificate (Mittlerer Schulabschluss)
The Bilingual Abitur is a German qualification that enables students to study at both German and foreign universities.
The final examinations of the German Abitur at the end of grade 12 consist of three written and one oral examination as well as the fifth examination component. The fifth examination component is a “special learning achievement” in the form of a presentation on a specialist topic.
Students in the 10th grade complete the “Mittlerer Schulabschluss” (MSA) of the state of Berlin. Students who have spent less than two school years at a German school can, on application, replace the German examination with an English Science examination. Further examinations are an oral examination in English and a presentation examination. In the presentation exam, students give a presentation on a topic of their choice.
According to Berlin regulations, successful completion of the MSA examinations is a prerequisite for students to be able to enter the upper school.
