Curious environmental kids wanted
Questions, research and understanding! – that’s the motto junior campus at the Technical University (TH) Lübeck. New this year: the environmental kids. This competition, which runs from March 1st to June 1st, is about bringing environmental and climate protection into day-care centers and elementary schools. Elementary schools can participate with expeditions on the topics of “mobility and environmental/climate protection”. Day-care centers are allowed to express themselves creatively in the area of “Healthy eating and the environment/ protecting the climate”. At the end of the competition, the day-care centers and elementary schools hand in posters for their campaigns and take part in an awards ceremony.
The JuniorCampus has received prominent support for these topics. Among other things, it is involved in the project EU climate alliance. Regional support comes from the Rose Foundation and the Belling Bookstore.

In addition to this, demonstration experiments deepen the knowledge acquired so that teachers can better respond to questions from the students.

The topics in the first half of the year are:
- 03/03/2022 | My body: In which skin are we stuck?
- 03/17/2022 | The Baked Stone!
- 04/27/2022 | Water and climate – an interplay of forces
- 06/02/2022 | The pitfalls of perception – optical illusions!
