The CJD Christophorusschule Elze was founded in 1951 as the first school of the Christian Youth Village Association of Germany (CJD). Since then, the grammar school has always adapted to societal and social changes, but the orientation towards the Christian image of man with the version "No one must go astray" has consistently shaped the character of this state-approved school in independent sponsorship. Everyone has gifts and talents. Every child and young person has very specific interests and abilities. With this starting point, the pedagogical concept builds on the strengths of the students entrusted to us in order to educate them to become self-confident young people. We see people holistically. In addition to a wide range of courses, we also offer a variety of extracurricular activities. Whether it's sport or music, learning a language or participating in one of the many study groups, concentrated learning or creative leisure activities - our students should also get actively involved in school life through careful individualisation of learning.
In Lower Saxony, between the major cities of Hameln and Hildesheim is the boarding school CJD Internat Elze, founded in 1947 and maintained at the expense of the church. International students are taught the basic norms and traditions of Christian morality, valuable human and moral qualities: decency, honesty, compassion and tolerance, the ability and desire to help one's neighbour, to share with misfortune and joy. Teachers and educators teach to appreciate each person, to protect nature, plants and animals. There is a special support and development program for gifted students, which helps them to maximize their talents and potential. There is a separate rehabilitation course for special categories of students. Close attention is paid to studying foreign languages in CJD Internat Elze. The big plus is the fact that international schoolchildren can learn their native language as the third foreign language and include it in their educational certificate. The institution is very loyal to foreign students, it practices constant student exchanges with the schools of France and the USA, actively cooperates with its colleagues from all over the world.

Surrounding Area
The city lies at the confluence of the River Leine and its tributary the Ihme, in the south of the North German Plain, and is the largest city in the Hannover–Braunschweig–Göttingen–Wolfsburg Metropolitan Region. It is the fifth-largest city in the Low German dialect area after Hamburg, Dortmund, Essen and Bremen. good public transport; wealth of museums, theatre, live music and other arts and cultural events; and the city's proximity to green spaces. The spectacularly Baroque Herrenhäuser Gärten, the constructed Lake Maschsee and the Eilenriede, Europe's largest urban forest, are all close at hand. That said, most Germans groan at the first mention of Hanover, whose dialect is regarded as the closest tongue to High German. Perhaps it's a complex socio-linguistic thing – or perhaps they're just jealous of the laid-back lifestyle.
Facilities
The boarding school is scenically located on a 12-hectare site and is embedded in the beautiful Leinebergland on the outskirts of the small town of Elze. The extensive campus consists i.a. from the school buildings of the grammar school, the canteen, the sports center, the riding hall and the music school as well as several boarding houses in which the students learn and live.
