An old photo, a little riddle, and a Christmas surprise: Who among us has a mother who looked like this in 1948? Tip until December 10, 2025 at kirstenschreibt@kurpfalz-internat.de<\/strong><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n

Old photos have their own charm. They show moments that are long gone \u2013 sometimes simple, sometimes surprisingly familiar.<\/p>\n\n

One of these little treasures is a photo from 1948 that has been kept as a personal keepsake in a family for decades. What can be seen is a young girl, presumably of elementary school age.<\/p>\n\n

\"Christmas<\/figure>\n\n

The special thing about it is that this girl is the mother of a colleague from our team at the Kurpfalz boarding school.<\/p>\n\n

And now you are asked: Who could it be?<\/p>\n\n

If you have an idea of which colleague is the parent of this girl’s child, we would appreciate your tip.<\/p>\n\n

Please send your proposal by email to kirstenschreibt@kurpfalz-internat.de<\/a> by December 10, 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
