Eureka! is open on Tuesdays and Fridays from 8:30 to 14:30.

How does it work?

Lost items that are found by the school staff are put into the Eureka! boxes that are placed all around the school campus (at the entrances to the nursery, primary and secondary buildings, the canteen, the gymnasiums, the APEEE transport office, the science building …)

On Tuesday and Friday mornings, the Eureka! volunteers and volunteering students collect these items from the Eureka! boxes and display them in the Eureka room.

 

IN NURSERY AND PRIMARY

  • Labelled items will be taken to the students’ classrooms twice a week.
  • Unnamed items will be stored in the Eureka! room. Students can pick them up during opening hours (see above).

IN SECONDARY

  • Labelled items will be triaged by level and taken to the respective educational advisor once a week. The advisor will inform the student and ask them to pick up the item(s) in their office.
  • Unnamed items will be stored in the Eureka! room. Students can pick them up during opening hours (see above).

Unclaimed items will be donated to charity twice a year (or more often depending on the available space in the Eureka! room)!

How can you help?

LABELLING

The Eureka! Team strongly encourages you to label your clothes, your bags, your sports equipment, your bottles, your lunch boxes… In fact, anything that can be labelled should be. It may seem tedious, or even futile, but when a labelled object ends up in the Eureka! room, it doesn’t stay there for long. The Eureka! team will make sure that all tagged objects that end up in the Eureka! room are quickly returned to their owners.

VOLUNTEERS

Eureka is a service run entirely by a few parent volunteers who collect, return and store items lost by pupils. If you have some spare time and enjoy doing the work of Sisyphus in a fun environment, contact the Eureka! team at the following address eureka@bru4.eu

Do we have your lost item?

The Eureka! Team regularly publishes videos of the found items. The school sends the Eureka! newsletter (including the links to the videos) to all parents. If you see an item that belongs to you, send an email to eureka@bru4.eu, specifying the item, name and class of your child.

Where to find the Eureka room?

The Eureka room is in the basement of the J building (primary).

In nursery, primary or secondary, THE BEST WAY TO FIND LOST THINGS IS TO NAME THEM. We strongly encourage you to label clothes, bags, sports equipment and lunch boxes.
