The subject of the new sports hall for Frankfurt International School is one that has been on the local political agenda for several years, with the main problem being exactly where to build it.
However last Saturday (30th August, 2014) surely put an end those discussions when the “Ground-breaking ceremony” took place, known in German as the “Spatenstich”, now that the school is building inside their own grounds.
The guests, except maybe for the new arrivals, could see a difference to the grounds as soon as they entered them. Over the summer holidays, the old sports hall had been torn down. In its place, next to where the Worldfest is held, is now a fenced off area containing the land where the building once stood.
