EduCampus Aruba

Ringing that bell and writing your name on the wall marks the official transition from 12th grader to GRADUATE.

It is our greatest honor to introduce you to the 33 new graduates for the 2025–2026 academic year that join the official Class of 2026!

There are moments in education that remind us why we do this work. Watching a learner reach a graduation is one of them.

For every name announced today, there is a story behind the diploma: moments of persistence, unexpected growth, lessons learned, and goals achieved. It has been an honor to witness those stories unfold, and we are excited to see where they lead next.

We are bursting with pride for our student artists, Xadah Maria🎤 and Kevin K**k 🎸. Seeing them live out their dreams and share their inspirations through their art on stage is exactly is truly inspiring to all of us.

Our students artists won with their band Red Rush, the grand title at the 2026 Battle of the Bands, completely blowing away the judges and the crowd with their high-energy performance—including two brilliant original tracks, “Fake It” and “Bestia.”

P.S. A shout-out to the band's bassist, Joshua "Chicho" Verschuur, who is actually a proud parent of one of our very own EduCampus students!

The entire island of Aruba and its surrounding water territory has just been designated as a UNESCO Man and the Biosphere Reserve!

We're proud to have been part of the youth consultation process and want to congratulate all the organisations and people who made this possible.

To honor all the hard work that has already been done and that will continue with this new recognition, this year for we continued our commitment to ocean literacy.

Our youngest learners ventured out to visit ScubbleBubbles Foundation new academy and learn all about coral restoration while our middle and high school learners watched Turning the Tide, the documentary that explores Aruba’s efforts to restore and protect its marine ecosystems for future generations.

The designation of Aruba as a Man and the Biosphere Reserve is not the end of a journey, but the beginning of a new chapter. As we celebrate today, we look forward to continuing to learn from, care for, and advocate for the ecosystems that sustain us all.

It is with great pride and joy that we announce our next round of EduCampus graduates for the 2025–2026 academic year, joining our official Class of 2026!

These students have worked hard, dedicated hours, days, months, and years, made memories and friends, shared triumphs and disappointments, learned from their crashes and carried the courage to try again, and it has all led them to this moment.

We're exactly 1 month away from our Graduation Ceremony, where the young graduates will be celebrated by their families and loved ones as they walk the stage and receive their well-earned diplomas.

We broke ground this to turn our concrete jungle into a green sanctuary🌱

This journey started with a preparation workshop where colleagues built our planters, and culminated in a beautiful new mural co-created by everyone, as well as a new gazebo to beat the sun.

A special shout-out to the parents who brought their children, helping instill the vital value of volunteer work in the next generation. We also want to say thank you to all of the volunteers who came and gave a helping hand to our greening project. We could not have done this without you!

Our Aruba DOET was made possible thanks to our incredible project leaders, coach Edseline and coach Brandon.

We also want to thank the following people, organizations, and companies for making this day possible:
- ARUBA DOET
- CEDE ARUBA
- Kooyman Aruba
- Azul Constructions
- Iberostar
- Giannis Group
- Paul Wong
- Sunrise City Coconut Collective

When students travel for competitions abroad, we often play a game of “Spot the EduCampus student-athlete” when it comes to photos and achievements and when we are reading news reports and social media posts.🏊‍♂️🏊‍♀️

To honor the 9 students who travelled to Panama for the IV South American Youth Games 2026 (IV Juegos Sudamericanos de la Juventud - Panamá 2026), we made a fun little game of bingo for you to Spot the Athlete along with us.

•Triathlon: Jeon Fernandes
•Taekwondo: Steffanie van Geene
•Gymnastics: Malaky van Dinter
•Aquatics: Luis-Mario Arends, Eva K**k, Xia Rodriguez, Ocean van Loon, Gabriella Hermans, and Jayrick Winterdal

Keep this bingo card handy for the years to come as these student-athletes continue their respective Olympic circuits.✨
