Elementary School Visit - NoordRijk


Elementary School Visit - NoordRijk

This is a new school - just opened in January.  It is very colorful and full of windows.  The school has children from age 5-12, a preschool from age 10 weeks to 4 years, and an afterschool program.  The school is located in the midst of some new development.
