TEDx Danube 2025

On Friday, March 14th, Danube International School Vienna held the second edition of TEDx Talk Youth. The evening was a great success, with thought provoking talks from teachers, parents and students. Under the theme "Beyond Borders", the event showcased talks on a wide variety of topics, such as social psychology and expectations, body language and gender equality. Congratulations to the two grade 12 student organisers for a great event!

Drug Awareness Workshop 2025

Our grade 8 and 9 students participated in a drug awareness workshop organised by Drogenfreies Österreich. In the workshop, they learnt about the negative effects of drugs and alcohol and signed a pledge to live a drug-free life. The event was presented by two representatives of Drogenfreies Österreich, a charity organisation dedicated to educating young people about drugs, and lasted one hour and a half. This was a valuable learning experience for our grade 8 and 9 students. 

Thank you to DÖ for coming to our school!
