Time really flies, and this week is no exception. The students have completed their TEBO course with a major assignment, cooked outdoors, enjoyed time in their contact groups, attended church and celebrated each other, Christmas and diversity at this year's big Christmas ball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Happy reading!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A fresh look at cultural trips <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, we are covering cultural trips in a new and exciting way. We have invited 10 journalism students from both the Danish School of Media and Journalism and the University of Southern Denmark to join us on 10 different trips. All of the journalists applied to participate and went through a selection process. Their primary task is to document the students' encounters with local culture and everyday life. We hope that this will encourage greater reflection among the students and provide a clearer picture of the development that such trips entail \u2013 both for the young people who travel abroad and for the people they meet along the way. The result will be a compilation video and accompanying images that will reflect the many experiences and perspectives that a efterskole\u00e5r at Ranum can provide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This week, the journalism students visited Ranum, where we held a two-day course focusing on Ranum's values, editing tools, design manuals and media platforms. Here, they also met the various tour guides and agreed on what is most important to focus on in the documentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"54399\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5390-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5390-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5390-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5390-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5390-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5390-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5390-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5390-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5390-700x525.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"54400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5391-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5391-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5391-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5391-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5391-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5391-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5391-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5391-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_5391-700x525.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pheasants on the menu <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the mild winter weather, the hunting licence team spent an afternoon skinning pheasants and cooking them in a pan.

A delicious classic Christmas buffet with rye bread, liver p\u00e2t\u00e9, fish fillet and everything you could dream of. At 7 p.m., the dessert table was opened, and with full stomachs, the students flew onto the dance floor.

The church had made every effort to accommodate everyone, and the message of community was clearly expressed \u2013 both in the sermon and in the hymns, which were sung in Danish, English, German and Spanish. It was a pleasant 45 minutes, and now everyone is ready to go on Christmas holiday.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4

Students and staff have concluded the first half of the year with a splendid Christmas ball and festive fireworks. It has been an eventful efterskole\u00e5r, which, despite increasing unrest in the world, has offered more trips, cultural encounters and visits from partner schools than ever before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is more important than ever to build bridges between different worlds and people so that we are not solely governed by the limited algorithms of social media. We insist that students experience the world with their own eyes and dare to look beyond the screen \u2013 in face-to-face encounters with real, fallible, curious and insecure teenagers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have a fantastic group of students this year, but we also find that group dynamics can create polarisation, which can be difficult for some. We stand firm on the school's values of community and responsibility for creating a good school. Although it can be difficult to take a firm stance, it is also a pleasure when many say that it gives them a sense of security in the educational environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It's Christmas time \u2013 a time for charity, reflection and cosy moments with the family. We look forward to seeing the students back on Saturday, 3 January after 6 p.m. and hope that many will use the Ranum bus, which again offers an early bird discount until 15 January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-content-justification-center is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-94bc23d7 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38805\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-12x12.jpg 12w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-570x570.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-1000x1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.ranumefterskole.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Olav_2023_Cirkel-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">It happens:<br>Calendar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Christmas Ball \u2013 18 December 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Christmas closing \u2013 19 December 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ski and Prague trip \u2013 3 January 2026 \u2013 11 January 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vaccinations \u2013 15 January 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Casino weekend \u2013 17 January 2026 \u2013 18 January 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Concert \u2013 21 January 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Follow us on social media<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ranumefterskole\">Facebook <\/a>\u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ranumefterskole\/\">Instagram <\/a>\u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@ranumefterskolecollege\">TikTok <\/a>\u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@RanumEfterskoleCollege\">YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sincerely yours<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ranum Efterskole College<\/h3>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cIt's hard to believe that the school year is already halfway through\u201d \u2013 a phrase we've heard many times in the corridors over the past week.
