FANTASTIC TIME!Hello everybody, this week will be the last week that we (Willem and Luuk) are at Currambena. Reviewing back at the time at Currambena we only can say one thing: FANTASTIC. When we arrived over here, we immediately noticed the hospitality, not only from the teachers, but as well from the children and parents. We think that’s great, because you don’t see that hospitality in every school.
In the first week we had the opportunity to go with Wendy’s class to camp. That was a great chance to get to know all the children. After that we had several lessons in every class.
In the book we got from all of you, were many words of thanks for our energy and enthusiasm, but actually you have yourselves to thank for that as you gave us the energy and enthusiasm to work with.
Last Friday was our farewell party, and we really enjoyed it. The photo book we each got from all of you, were just great. This book is not just a book, but we will take it with us, as a reminder of the fantastic times we had.
What Chris wrote in our book, is definitely the truth: “Keep Currambena in your heart, we will be thinking of you”. We will really keep thinking of Currambena. Currambena made our time in Sydney from really good to the best!
It was not only an enjoyable and fun time, we really learned a lot from this internship.
In the beginning we had a view on education that actually every student in Holland has. Because of this internship our eyes were opened. We experienced an education system that is quite different to that which most people experience.
The connection/relationship what we had with the parents, teachers and children was unique. We didn’t it experienced that way before.
So we are really grateful to all of you, for having us at Currambena. Many thanks to the teachers, who helped us with all kind of stuff. Many thanks to the parents, who were really interested in us and our time in Sydney. And many many thanks to the children who made our time in Currambena Fantastic.
We would really love to keep in contact with you, and we are really are interested in how everything is going over here and with every single one of you.
