As an education coordinator, you ensure that we offer an attractive curriculum and that the organization and coordination with the schools and the team runs smoothly.

In recent years, a lot of attention has been paid to achieving this objective. This has so far resulted in an educational offering of various lessons and presentations, carried out by an education team currently consisting of 5 volunteers.
