The school

Lentiz Dalton MAVO & Het Groene Lyceum is located in Naaldwijk in the Westland area. It is very close to the sea.We have about 850 students. We are a Daltonschool and as Helen Parkhurst once said: ‘Dalton is no method, no system, it a way of life!’ 

Our school is no traditional school and students can work in their own pace and level. This started last year, so year 1 and year 2 work like that right now. In year 3 students get the opportunity to go abroad on an exchange.
