Going to bridge class
A good start!
Pretty exciting, that transition from elementary school to high school. Together with your elementary school, we make sure you get off to a good start. It is important to us that you quickly feel at home and safe, and that you join a good class.
NEW: bridge class framework/mavo
From school year 2026-2027, you can also enter the bridge class framework/mavo.
The mentor
The person who is always there for you is your mentor. If you or your parents have any questions, you can always contact the mentor. The mentor also gives the mentor lessons to your mentor class. Here you "learn how to learn" and how best to tackle your homework. Your mentor also teaches you how we deal with each other at school and what agreements there are at school.
Two-year bridge classes
It is important to us that you quickly feel at home at our school and that you are in the right place. At our school, all bridge classes are two-year classes. This gives you ample time to get used to secondary education. There is a vmbo basis/kader bridge class, a mavo/havo bridge class and a havo/vwo bridge class. In these so-called roof-top classes, classes are taught at both levels. Do you need some extra explanation? Then you will get it. Just ready for some extra challenge? Then the teacher will provide in-depth material. During testing we take your level into account. In the second year at the Sondervick College we look, together with you and your parents, at which study program suits you best.
For the vwo student who is looking for extra challenges we have a bilingual vwo bridge class. A bridge class for students who are looking for a challenging, bilingual learning environment.
Fun activities
We organize many educational and fun activities. Like the fall ball, a swimming party, technology and design excursions and theme weeks. That way you get to know each other well.
Growing entrepreneurially
At Sondervick College you really get the chance to grow, discover your talents and learn new things. During GO classes, you choose from one of the learning labs or skills sessions.
- Learning Labs are electives where you choose a topic that you find interesting. For example, you can choose drama, dance, photography or knitting/ crochet! You learn new things and work on skills such as creative thinking or cooperation.
- Skills sessions focus on subjects such as Dutch, English and math. Here you work on improving your basic skills as needed.
