On Saturday, 30 May 2026, the ISD community came together for one of the most anticipated events of the year; our International Fest.

A huge thank you goes to all the volunteers who gave their time, energy and enthusiasm to make the Fest possible. From the many country booths and activities to the food, entertainment and countless details behind the scenes, the day was a wonderful reflection of the diversity and community spirit that make ISD so special.

We were very delighted to welcome Bageldorf as our sponsor, bringing their delicious bagels, matcha and smoothies to the Fest and also generously donating all proceeds to ISDForward, helping us bring projects across our school to life.

And, of course, an all-time favourite was back: the ISDForward Tombola!

Our booth was busy throughout the Fest, with an incredible number of excited visitors hoping to take home one of the many prizes on offer. Thanks to the enthusiasm of our community, the Tombola raised over €2,000 for ISDForward.

None of this would have been possible without the many fantastic prizes donated by our community. A huge thank you to all the families, partners and businesses who contributed products, experiences, vouchers and other prizes. Your generosity played a big part in making the Tombola such a success and raising funds for our school.

After such a great response, we are delighted that the ISDForward Tombola is here to stay and will return at future International Fests.

Would you or your business like to contribute a product, voucher, experience or prize next time? We would love to hear from you.

Please contact our Advancement Office at isdforward@isdedu.de.

And finally, thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered, bought tickets or simply stopped by our booth. You made our first ISDForward Tombola a real community success.
