How many schools have a castle?
This is the International School of Brussels Château which houses the reception, the admininistration and a lounge and coffee machine for parents and visitors. The grounds around the Château are densely wooded, and there are several benches like the one pictured here where one can sit outside when the weather is fine. What struck me in particular about this park bench, as the plaque says, is that it was made from recycled plastic collected by the school children. It is quite paradoxical too that one of the worlds biggest corporate polluters (Exxon) sponsored this effort. I suppose as Martin Luther King once said, "There is some good in the worst of us, and some good in the best of us." However, many of the children of Exxon employees attend this school, so perhaps it is in their best interest to make sure all is well within the castle walls.
