Our campus is housed in a beautiful monumental (Rijksmonument) building, carefully restored and refitted to meet the needs of a modern international school while preserving its unique architectural character. Set beside De Braak, a protected nature reserve of temperate, deciduous woodland and wetlands, and bordering the Amsterdamse Bos, the school enjoys a rare and inspiring location that supports creativity, wellbeing, and a deep connection with the natural world.
