Schulanfang: Germany's Sweet School Tradition - Celebrating Seiffen, Carmel's German Sister City

Schulanfang celebrates a beloved German tradition where children starting school receive decorative cones (Schultüten) filled with treats and gifts. This community event honors Carmel's sister-city relationship with Seiffen, Germany, and invites families to experience authentic cultural customs through activities, demonstrations, and the festive spirit of a German school-starting celebration. It's a wonderful opportunity for children to learn about international traditions while enjoying hands-on fun in a welcoming, multicultural setting.
