Model United Nations Alfrink


Many of the Sixth Form are currently on the outskirts of the Hague in the Netherlands attending a Model United Nations Conference. Even as I type, students are lobbying, debating, submitting and defending resolutions. The planning started early and continued in the Eurostar station,


 and on the train



It was a little chilly when we arrived


 but everyone is in very good spirits! After checking out the Prime Minister's Office



we headed back to Alfrink College for further training. It's that way ...



Two of our students gave speeches at the opening conference (and we were very proud of them) before everyone moved into their repsective committees.



















We have heard a high level of debate so far and are very much looking forward to the next day and a half. Updates to follow if we can find time.
