Contest

The Manitoba German Language Contest provides students the opportunity of receiving recognition for their competence in the German language. Students compete in reading, writing, listening, and speaking, and have the opportunity to win a cash prize.
Thanks to the generous support of the PAD and the Goethe Institute, for many years we have also been able to award Scholarship trips to Germany for the categories: Senior A, Senior B, and Senior C. This has allowed students in grades 11 – 12 a recognition of their achievements and opportunity to continue their learning.

2025 Marks the 51th Annual Manitoba German Language Contest!

Registration Deadline: October 31, 2024

Interviews at Chief Peguis Junior High: February 26

We are excited to welcome students from all over the province for our annual contest. Please contact Nicole Fruehauf if you have any questions: nicole.fruehauf@live.com
