Tallinn University discovers Crescendo CVO and Mechelen as a learning environment 13/11/2026

On 12 November, we were delighted to welcome a delegation from Tallinn University in Estonia to Crescendo CVO. Seven colleagues visited us to discover our school, our approach to education and some of our best practices.

During their visit, we introduced them to our vision of learning and experiencing. We explained how learning at Crescendo goes beyond the classroom: we actively use the city as an extension of the learning environment. In this way, Mechelen becomes one big learning laboratory, where students not only acquire knowledge but also discover the world around them through hands-on experiences.

Of course, we wanted our visitors to experience this for themselves! Together, we explored the city and visited several places where our educational approach comes to life. We stopped at the library, where we organise activities such as our reading club and photography exhibitions. We also visited the Church of Our Lady across the Dyle (Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-over-de-Dijlekerk), where our Mechelen ambassadors attend classes.

It was an inspiring opportunity to get to know each other, exchange experiences and share good practices. Because looking beyond borders, learning from one another and discovering new perspectives: that is what internationalisation is all about!

We would like to thank our Estonian colleagues from Tallinn University for their visit, their interest and the wonderful exchange.
