There is so much to love about the Netherlands, the architecture, stunning 17th century canals, the fact that bicycles have right of way over cars, the amazing bread, beautiful flowers and that the Netherlands came top of a Unicef league table for child well-being. James and George from our UK head office sales team have just returned from a trip to the Netherlands and we are super pleased with the bag of stroopwafel that they brought back with them! They went to meet with bilingual schools and educational agents to discuss what Xplore can offer to their students here in the UK and to hand out our brand new brochure for Dutch Bilingual schools.
We know that international education doesn't just take place in the classroom but through worldwide experiences and cultural exchanges. For many years Dutch students have come to the UK to use and experience the English language whilst visiting our towns, cities and attractions. We have built up a relationship with various schools here to offer integration between Dutch and English students and also offer activities for team building and fun! 2014 has been a busy year for our Dutch school groups and we have more booked to visit in September. James and George travelled across many of the provinces which make up the Netherlands and were made very welcome by everyone they met, visiting places such as Eindhoven Weert, Landgraaf, Amsterdam, Maastricht, Rotterdam and Harderwijk.
The schools were positive about our all inclusive programmes, our new brochure and what we can offer their students in 2015. We really hope to be welcoming them to the UK in the near future!
