1. Why did we invite you?


To have a good idea of what our lessons/education looks like. So when you are representing our school at open days or when you are speaking to future students you will have more knowledge about the IMH education (than you already have of course ;)) 

Also, because we find it important to connect more with you and  to show and tell you in person what we are doing here at school, so we can see the differences but also, of course, the similarities.
