Report about our visit 

in the partner school OBS De Plantage in Houten on 5th of June 2026

We had the great pleasure of visiting our partner school OBS De Plantage in Houten in the Netherlands.

During our visit our team gained many valuable insights into everyday school life and the educational practices at the school. It was very interesting for us to observe the advantages of  Dalton teaching system.

The respectful interaction between the pupils, the safe and warmhearted atmosphere in the classrooms and school and the self-directed work of the pupils have been very fascinating for us.

We were surprised about the very good digital equipment of the school and the confident handling of the pupils with them.

The exchange with other teachers there was a great pleasure for us. We are very much looking forward to continuing our collaboration with our partner school and would like to express our sincere thanks to Headteacher Diana Brouwer for the valuable exchange and the hospitable reception.
