Preparing for life – Sophia Essrich (2011-2016)

September 6, 2022ByPierre GielenAlumni

My time at AFNORTH International School has defined me and shaped my identity. I learned that I am much more than a girl from Southern Germany. Attending AFNORTH meant to me: playing tennis on an American tennis team, debating about current politics with people from across the world in government simulations, studying Shakespeare in the...

Everyone fits in – Alberto Løken Nario (2013-2016)

December 5, 2021ByDirectorate - BOAlumni

I still remember driving past AFNORTH International School for the first time back in 2013, when I was only 15 years old. I remember being baffled by the size of the building, the track, the American football court. For me, having lived my whole life in rural Norway, this was all very exciting. First day...

Memories of AFCENT (AFNORTH) International School – Tony Cann (1985-89)

December 14, 2019ByDirectorate - BOAlumni

I came to AFCENT School in late September 1985. You could always tell who the new British kid was because they used to wear their old school uniform for a few months. My first Teacher was Ms Bourque, a French Canadian lady. This was followed by Mr Bell (UK) in 1986-87, Mr Crossfield(UK) in 1987-88...

It was a pleasure being again at a school, which has influenced our lives like no other ever did. The moment we walked in the school,...

A school for your life – Florian Chroscz

December 10, 2019ByDirectorate - BOAlumni

Exactly ten years ago, in 2005, I left AIS with the german “Abitur”. Like so many other people at this school I visited a couple of schools within Germany and Europe, but AIS was some kind of special in a very positive way. Small classes with a good speed of learning, international spirit and good...

An enriching and surreal experience – Beorn Nijenhuis

December 9, 2019ByDirectorate - BOAlumni

AIS was a fascinating place. The myriad countries, cultures and socio-economic backgrounds made for an enriching and surreal experience. The jungle rules of high school still applied at AIS, just like any other school, however the competition for popularity was tempered by a tolerance for diversity. That is how I was able to make meaningful...

The best time of my life – Alex Hartung

Deutsche Fassung (English version below) Verrückt, vor 8 Jahren noch jede Pause auf dem Afnorth Schulhof am Fussball spielen und der große Traum Fussballprofi zu werden – heute auf der The Voice of Germany Bühne, als Musiker. Ich fing vor drei Jahren mit Musik an, entwickelte eine Leidenschaft dafür, übte fleißig und schickte dieses Jahr...

Every tool I needed to succeed in life – Michaëlle Pilote

December 8, 2019ByDirectorate - BOAlumni

I can’t believe it was 8 years ago….I was leaving AIS, crying and heartbroken. I thought I was leaving everything I knew behind. Little did I know, AIS had given me every tool I needed to succeed in life… Afnorth and the community around it have opened my mind and my heart to new and...
