Description:
In 'Van deze kinderen ga je houden' by Anja Vink you live a school year with the children in class 1D of the GKH (now experience college), a pre-vocational secondary education (VMBO) in the Rotterdam district of Delfshaven. You see the pupils, Bilal, Jim, Mateus and Fahimida, grow from insecure children to open-minded, spontaneous adolescents with their fellow pupils. Most of them enter the GKH with a backpack full of problems and a language deficit of almost two years on average, which often makes the world incomprehensible to them. Words such as `light frost' in a math lesson about negative numbers turn the assignment into a secret message that cannot be deciphered. Every school day, teacher Vincent van der Pas reads to them, he teaches them new words, talks to them about their lives and opens up a world of science, history and the daily news. Step by step, the pupils of 1D give him their trust. In turn, Vincent teaches them that school can be fun, and that hard work really does pay off.
