The starting point of our pedagogical considerations is the Christian image of man, man as a person who must be encouraged in his entirety. Intellectual training is of course taken very seriously at our grammar school, but heart, hand, mind and soul must also be encouraged and trained. A holistic education requires intellectual training with modern methods, but also music and art, sports and drama. The physical education classes are not cut back, they are supplemented by working groups. Every sextan is a member of the choir. Instrumental lessons are offered extracurricularly, artistic working groups help to develop the appropriate talents. Year after year, concerts and our own theater productions show that this holistic education is not just on paper.
Benefit, Goal of this course :
The Collegium Johanneum Schloss Loburg school is located between Munster and Osnabrück (Westphalia region), in the town of Ostbevern, in the ancient castle of Loberg.

The main goal of this school is the comprehensive development of a full and multifaceted personality, the ability to occupy responsible and high positions, work efficiently and with full dedication. The scheme of scholastic studying is actively used: it is aimed at the formation of one's own persistent opinion and point of view through the analysis of proven scientific facts.

Tolerance; Compassion; Respect for others; Love for one's neighbor; Forgiveness; Sincerity;
