W E L C O M I N G S T U D E N T V I S I T O R S F R O M D E N M A R K Students from the Sine School visited PTS for a day of cultural exchange. "[It was] a fantastic experience, to see the USA school culture," said student Emil Grøtkjær. Another student, Laurits Trum, noted the difference between American schools and Danish schools: "It is different from Denmark, with [the] dress code and large dining area, and fantastic facilities, which was fun to see." Having now visited Palmer Trinity for the second year, Sine School teacher Chris Orton confirms it was a wonderful experience. "We always meet happy faces, teachers and pupils that are so pleasant, and can tell us about their goals and interests as a teenager in the USA. I'm sure this experience helps our pupils grow, and they tell us they had a great day."
