PHILIPSBURG:--- From February 3 to February 7, 2025, the 10 students from Anne Frank Realschule, Germany and their 4 teachers visited us for an unforgettable cultural exchange with select VWO 3, Havo 3, and TKL students. This was a special return visit, as our students had the opportunity to visit them in Germany back in November 2024.
Their week was filled with enriching and hands-on experiences—special classes where they mastered the art of making delicious banana fritters, danced to lively salsa rhythms, expressed their creativity through art, learned Dutch, and explored innovative recycling at Perpetual Plastic.
The adventure didn’t stop there! They explored the island on exciting field trips—touring breathtaking landscapes, swimming in the crystal-clear waters of Divi and Grand Case Beach, marveling at the Bird Park, experiencing the thrills of Rainforest Adventures, and racing through Philipsburg in an action-packed scavenger hunt!
Beyond the activities, they formed meaningful connections with their host families, gaining firsthand experience of island life and local traditions. A huge thank you to the Sundial hospitality team and students for the fantastic lunch at The Source on Wednesday, February 5, 2025—an unforgettable way to celebrate this amazing exchange!"
