Networking, knowledge, and know-how for everyone passionate about school attendance and engagement:
Hotel Zuiderduin is just steps away from the promenade, restaurants, even a lighthouse. Cheese town Alkmaar (‘small Amsterdam’) is around the corner, and Amsterdam only a 40-minute drive. Pack a swimsuit for the pool (or the North Sea if you dare) and brush up on your ten-pin bowling skills for the inaugural ‘international challenge’.
