Primary school children in religious education in Salzburg “Ramadan is the best time” – the “Kroon” reported. The excitement is great, but the religion teacher remains supported.
Several parents were furious, turned to the public. The “Krone” readers also made a (almost) unanimous judgment: “Such a song really didn’t lose anything in the classroom!” As reported, the fourth classes of a Flachgau Elementary school sang a rather unusual song in religious education. “Ramadan is the best time of the year,” said it.
The Salzburg specialist inspector for Catholic religious education brought the teacher protected despite the protests. “In the sense of the curriculum and the inter-religious dialogue, the teacher did nothing wrong,” Marie-Luise Doppler told the “Krone”. The inspector continues to hold the teacher. You stand behind her “one hundred percent”.
But: the uncertainty of the parents is understandable. Because: “We are increasingly struggling with our Christian roots,” says Doppler. The Flachgau teacher passes this on with “love and conviction”. Incidentally, the teacher has selected the Ramadan song in question from a book for Islamic religious education.
Petra Manuss (name changed by the editorial team) is the mother of a child who has to sing the Ramadan number. She stays with it: “It just went too far.”
