The International School of Düsseldorf once again joined the annual RhineCleanUp effort this year, on Saturday 11 September, with over 250 ISD students, parents, faculty, and staff. This is the fourth consecutive year ISD has supported the event.
ISD worked alongside a number of local community organisations on the Rhine’s shores, including:

Judo Club Kaiserswerth
- Kinderhaus Kaiserswerth
- Große Kaiserswerther Karnevalsgesellschaft
- KG Düsseldorfer Nordlichter
- Theodor-Fliedner-Gymnasium
ISD staff members, Laura Maly-Schmidt and Beatrice Caston, coordinated ISD’s sizable team of volunteers. “Our students and community enjoyed working together with our neighbours to help protect the environment.” Collectively, we managed to pick up over 100 bagfuls of trash from the banks of the Rhine in the Kaiserswerth area.
“We are genuinely passionate about making a difference and doing the best to build a more sustainable future,” Ms Maly-Schmidt said. “We know that every single year, millions of tonnes of rubbish enter our oceans via rivers and waterways. RhineCleanUp has come to play a critical role in raising awareness of this issue by mobilising communities along the Rhine’s banks, from the source to the mouth.
“The Rhine River is in ISD’s backyard, and we’re committed to doing our part to preserve the amenity of this beautiful natural resource.”
The event has again been carefully organised this year to allow for cleanups to proceed under COVID conditions.
