PSG Welcome Guide 2012 - 2013 - UWC Maastricht

Word of Welcome
The Parent Support Group (PSG) and Welcome Committee at United
World College Maastricht welcome you to Maastricht.
We hope that this Welcome Guide will be of help to you and your
family in getting settled in the Maastricht area. The sooner you get
settled, the sooner you consider it a home from home, a place where
you are just as comfortable and content as if you were home!
We all remember those first few weeks of adjusting to a new country.
This Welcome Guide was compiled by UWC parents. The
information is not exhaustive and is based on our subjective
experience. We try our utmost best to keep this guide up to date.
When you have additional information that is worth a mention,
please do let us know.
Parents at UWC Maastricht are quite involved at school and the
numerous volunteer-run events and activities are great ways to
meet fellow parents, to make friends with other international
families and to exchange information.
We have all been there, so please do not hesitate to participate and
to approach other parents. Also, feel free to contact your Year
Representative when you have any questions. Most Year
Representatives have been here a little longer and will be able to
help you or point you into the right direction!
A soft copy of this Welcome Guide can be obtained through the

Whether you will be here for a short time or somewhat longer, we
hope you will enjoy your stay!
