Our last day at our sister school saw us create bookmarks using the 24 Solar Terms, taking part in a PE lesson with some competitive games, before creating traditional sachets for each student. We rounded out the school exchange with stunning performances and our final gift exchanges. Finally, we visited the Anhui Youth Science and Technology Centre, experiencing interactive activities all linked to space. Tomorrow we return to Shanghai via the bullet train for our final day in China! 🇨🇳 🚆 ... See MoreSee Less
On our second day at two other campuses of Hefei No.50 Middle School, our students exchanged their gifts and met more buddies. We observed (and some volunteered to take part in) morning exercise routines at line ups! Our students then took part in an English lesson, learning about the importance of team work through a Chinese climbers experience of climbing Mount Everest, followed by a traditional Chinese tea art ceremony. Students then loved making their own steamed buns and eating them as part of their lunch. We then visited the second campus to learn about Chinese calligraphy, take part in Kung Fu, Diablo, and even see the robotic dog! Finally, we visited the traditions folk museum of Anhui, learning about ceramics, traditions dress and taking part in a tie dye activity with their Chinese peers. Another fantastic day here in China! ... See MoreSee Less
On Tuesday we visited our Sister School, Hefei No.50 Middle School. The students experienced their school choir, musical performances, some of our own performances, a robotics and AI class, traditional Chinese paper cutting and a friendly football match with their Chinese peers. They watched the 8 time National Champions play handball and received some wonderful gifts from their buddies. There was, of course, more shopping!! This time at the night market and Huahe Road, with the infamous 10 Yuan shop! A fantastic day all round. ... See MoreSee Less
