Egå Ungdomshøjskole

Egå Ungdoms-Højskole (EUH) is a youth folk high school, - a creative Danish school, for students between the age of 16 and 19 years. The days at the school are marked by; joy and intensity, and a community that is binding, spacious, and rewarding. At EUH, we try to engage the students to influence the decisions that affect the everyday life at the school. It is central for us at EUH that the students feel the importance of being an active member and taking responsibility for the community. For the creative ones, the thoughtful ones, and for those who enjoy sports. We teach classes in subjects such as: design, music, choir, theatre, art, sports, film, photo etc. and for international students, we will in autumn terms offer lessons called ”Danish and Denmark” and hopefully more. The students pick their own classes. The subjects will have classes for beginners as well as experienced. At the school, there is a gym hall and workshops for all the classes. The school is located approx. 12 km outside of Aarhus, in the countryside, and close to the beach. We have room for 82 students in 7 student-houses. In the International house (sometimes we have two International houses), lives foreign and possible, some Danish students together and the main language will be English - in the rest of the houses the daily main language will be Danish. The teachers will translate lessons, common lessons and other information. We are a Danish folk high school, but because of the international students all information and lessons will be translated into English, and the daily language is a mix of Danish and English.
