Dutch language immersion

For anyone learning a language it is important to be able to practise it as well. Children whose mother tongue is not Dutch can use it during the school holidays in the different ‘de Rand’ community centres, where entertaining and instructive Dutch learning opportunities are provided. The varied programme of activities allows the children to immerse themselves in the Dutch language for a whole week. The monitors encourage the children to speak Dutch while they play, even though the idea is not to offer language lessons.
