IMC Weekend School Fund

Psychologist Heleen Terwijn observed that ten-year-olds are fully occupied with fantasies about their future. That curiosity is only partly nurtured at school, while children are all, by nature, broadly interested. During her research, Terwijn developed the idea of bringing children from the receptive age of ten into contact with enthusiastic professionals and interesting fields. Supplementary education is the difference maker for society. Intrinsically driven students and former students are a great asset to society and strengthen it. With Future Expedition, IMC Weekend School brings society into the classroom and vice versa. Guest lessons take students into real-life situations. Students learn to diagnose with a general practitioner, program with an IT professional, put out fires with the fire brigade, debate with an alderman, make judgments with a judge and make reports with a journalist, and so on.
