Two Worlds Unite!
In October, 2007, students from Moss, Norway stepped on American soil for the first time!
As Foreign Exchange students at Nansemond-Suffolk Academy, these students ambassadors immersed themselves in American Culture through first-hand living experiences and interactions with their American peers.
During their two-week stay, the students resided with NSA host families while attending classes and engaging in extra-curricular activities. Field trips to Virginia Beach, Jamestown and Williamsburg were taken while students also enjoyed the simple teenage pleasures of pizza parties, bonfires and football games. "The learning part of this is non-stop for us and for them. This program affords us all an amazing opportunity to learn from one another", remarked Polly Foster, NSA's Foreign Exchange Program Coordinator.
