Family breakfast for students with children
Twice a year, Leipzig University and the Studentenwerk Leipzig organise a family breakfast in the Mensa am Park. Student parents from all Leipzig universities and their children as well as pregnant women are invited.
The breakfast offers parents the opportunity to talk to contact persons from various organisations and institutions in a relaxed atmosphere about questions and problems that come with studying with a child. It is also a good opportunity for parents to get to know each other better.
The Office for Equality, Diversity and Family Affairs of Leipzig University, the social counsellors of the Studentenwerk and the student counsellors of Leipzig's universities will provide practical tips on organising and financing studies with children and arrange helpful contacts.
In addition to a healthy breakfast buffet for young and old, there will be a small surprise programme for the children - and for parents there will be lots of information, nice contacts with other student parents and the opportunity to get advice.
