Last two years, the exchange
project between Awty and the Erasmiaans Gymnasium Rotterdam was a huge
success. For one week in April, Awty students from te International
and the French section, experienced high school life and field trips in
the Netherlands and we welcomed Dutch students in 9th and 10th
grade in Awty the first week of May. This year, to prevent any
interruption in the preparation for the final exams, we have moved the
visit of the Dutch students forward to the week of 20-28 February.
Again for this year the Dutch
school has planned an “English immersion week” and in most classes in
their klas 3 (equivalent to 9th grade) English will be the language of
instruction. Therefore they are proud to invite English speaking
students from 9th and
10th grade. As the lessons in
Rotterdam
are scheduled in 9th grade classes, Awty students in 9th
grade have preference over 10th graders if there are more
applicants than spaces. Many applicants in
Rotterdam
have already showed their interest in the 2009 program and are waiting for
the selection, who can come to
Houston
.
