Meet the New “Life as a Captain” Module!

Schloss Krumbach International School recently launched the “Life as a Captain” module, part of the Open Gates Knowledge Leadership Series.

This time we had a very special guest visiting us a for a week: a seasoned Captain Mariner, who commands a large container vessel traveling the world, shared firsthand accounts of his journeys, offering students a rare glimpse into life at sea. Through his stories, the Captain introduced students to key maritime topics like navigation, meteorology, sea trade, and piracy. He also connected theoretical knowledge physics, geometry, and hydrodynamics with how he addresses real-life challenges sailors face on the open water.

“Life as a Captain” module gave students a tangible understanding of how classroom learning translates into real-world applications, and was incredibly exciting and engaging.
