DSS and Charity works
Throughout the last year, the school has been actively involved in many social projects this school year, and they were happy to showcase some of their work with a special booth at Paulaner's Christmas market last December, offering DSSH honey, self-designed Christmas cards, and handicrafts from the kindergarten as well as artwork from the secondary school students in return for a small donation. All benefits are donated to social initiatives and help people in need. More on that here. More on that here.
