Scandinavian school of Brussels - blog

I got a question from a swedish follower regarding how the connection between the students at the school are, if girls and boys spend time together and if all the different classes at the gymnasium spend time together. She was also wondering if the boarding students and the students in the class have a good connection.

 

First of all I want to thank you for sending in a question, I am happy to answer everything that you are wondering about and I hope that my answer will help you!

 

The connection between the students, both on the boarding and those living here with their families, is very strong. Since we live in a foreign country and have moved from our home, we are all in the same situation and want to get to know new people and have fun. Therefore, it does not matter if you are a boy/girl or which grade you go in. When we make plans to do an activity, everyone is invited. As an example, you maybe read about our trip we took to Val D'Isere for the spring holiday, the whole gymnasium was invited and everybody could come, however, it was your own choice if you wanted to join or not. Also, when we go out to dinner or so on, we are often a mixed group of boys and girls in different grades. 

 

Living at the castle you get very close to all the other students who live here since we spend all day, everyday together. We eat together, we can study together, we chill out together, we get ready together, we support eachother and we help eachother. Since it is so intense we become a bit like a big family, always looking out for one another. It is hard to explain, but you will realise this when/if you live here.

 

I hope you have gotten your question answerd and feel free to send more questions!

 

Here are some pictures from the past year of all students together:
