I'll have the Dutch and Finnish culture to go, please!

When you move abroad with children, one of the main concerns of parent's is how to maintain the links back to the home country's culture, customs and language.

There's plenty you can do yourself at home and nothing beats getting back on the native soil, but here are some services that will package up Dutch and Finnish culture and ship it to you:

Wereldschool
The Wereldschool provides teaching programmes for Dutch-speaking children who stay abroad with their parents. From 1948 onwards, when we started, the Wereldschool has grown into an educational facility which is being used on a yearly basis by approximately 1,400 pupils, spread over more than 128 countries.
