We are
delighted to announce
that our St. Nicolaas assembly this morning was a
SUCCESS ! In Marseille our students arrived to school to find their
slippers filled with chocolates and clementines, just as they would if they
were in the Netherlands!
And at our school in Luynes, with the help of our Dutch professor, the Dutch
students at EPIM dressed up as St. Nicolaas and his little helpers to recreate
the true story of St. Nicolaas. They proudly sang songs, lead art activities,
and baked traditional cookies for the entire school. Parents and teachers
attended this assembly as well and were very impressed. By celebrating holidays
such as St. Nicolaas at school, all of our students are able to experience many
different cultures first hand. Additionally, the International students
themselves are able to hold on to their precious culture
