As part of the enriching student exchange program 2025, Seth Anandram Jaipuria School in Vasundhara, Ghaziabad, had the honour of hosting a delegation from Affärsgymnasiet Helsingborg and Affärsgymnasiet Malmö, Sweden. The visit began with a warm welcome for the guests.

The Swedish delegation attended the school’s morning assembly, where Mr. Jens Jording (Principal), Mr. Björn Svensson (Teacher), and the students all introduced themselves. The assembly was followed by a welcome address and orientation from the school’s Director-Principal, Ms. Shalini Nambiar, who shared important guidelines and expectations for the visit.

The guests were given a comprehensive tour of the school campus. They were particularly impressed by the cutting-edge infrastructure and the school’s well-organised, student-centered environment.

As part of their cultural immersion, the visiting Swedish students were paired with Jaipurians and took Biology and Economics classes. They also went to a music and dance class. The Principal, Mr. Jens Jording, delivered an enriching session on leadership and entrepreneurship for the Grade 12 students, which was well received.

The delegates experienced Jaipuria’s creative side by participating in a variety of activity-based sessions at the school, including an art class, a pottery class, and a Western music class. Some Swedish students also participated actively in a dance and an Indian classical music session, embracing India’s vibrant cultural diversity.

In the spirit of camaraderie and sportsmanship, the Swedish students took part in a friendly football match against Jaipurians, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

The Swedish delegates experienced Indian culture by visiting local markets in Delhi in the evening.
