Our school is in the heart of Bavaria in the south of Germany, only short distances away from Munich (1 ½ hours), Nuremberg (1/2 an hour) and Regensburg (1 hour). We have about 800 students, all of whom learn English and at least one other foreign language (French, Latin and Spanish). We are proud of our theater and music departments and our radio projects have won many awards. Our students excel in Maths and Science and many of them participate successfully in “Jugend forscht” projects. Gym Hip offers a variety of extracurricular activities for our students. Our school building was completely rebuilt a few years ago, giving us excellent digital resources. See more information on our homepage www.gym-hip.de. Hilpoltstein is a small historic town with a population of about 13500 on the Rothsee, a popular destination for weekend getaways that offers an abundance of activities. It’s a safe and tight-knit community.
