Der Anfang ist gemacht!

"Traditions of our Cultures"
Der letzte Abend der 4-tägigen Orientation in der Pomfret School (nähe Boston) am 20.08.2011 mit allen 146 ASSIST-Schülern aus 17 Ländern!
Jessi mitten drin in der ersten Reihe...das erinnert sicher den ein oder anderen an eine Musical-Aufführung der Holderbergschule ;-)
Ich hoffe, dass Jessi bald selbst die Führung in diesem Blog übernehmen kann und wieder auf Empfang ist.

Think of you. ***

Der Start - auf zu neuen Ufern

Frankfurt Airport, 17.08.2011, 12:20 Uhr

Tag 1: 8/17/2011...Abflug und Ankunft

06:09 (00:09)



It is now quite late at Pomfret School in Connecticut, and I am writing to inform you that all of our ASSIST scholars from Germany, including Jessica, have arrived safely at Logan Airport and are either here on campus or are en route by bus. They are very tired, but they are enthused and positive.

We will be up early tomorrow to begin our time together, and I am certain that Jessica will enjoy her time at Orientation. One reason to send this e-mail, in addition to reassuring you, is to try and limit the calls or e-mails that students send from Orientation. I will let the students know at breakfast tomorrow that you have heard from us so that they can concentrate on getting to know one another in our brief time together.

We will also post pictures every day so that you can see what Jessica is up to. Please visit www.assist-inc.org and choose the blue button: Breaking News -- ASSIST Orientation 2011.

We are available here at Pomfret School throughout the day and anticipate that we will enjoying getting to know the 146 scholars from 17 countries who are members of the ASSIST Class of 2011/12   our 43rd ASSIST Class.

With best regards
