China Trip - What a Wonderful Experince!
In the September School holidays a group of 22 stduents, parents and staff travelled to China to visit our sister school in Changshu. It was a very special time to reconnect with students that we had hosted back in Paynesville. It was also nice to meet their parents and spend some quality time together. As well as meeting up with our friends in Changshu we also visited Shanghai (Just an amazing and modern city of 26 million people), Suzhou (Canals, Gardens and Markets), X'ian (Walled city and home of the terracotta warriors) and finally Beijing (The Sqaure, The Forbidden City and the Geat Wall).
Here we are outside our sister school in Changshu. We had just enjoyed a tour of their kindergarden.
Steven and Jo McKinnon with Kevin, and David and the twins parents. The McKinnon Family hosted the boys when they visited with their school earlier this year. Both families are friends for life.
In Shanghai after a long day of markets, temples and gardens the boys are looking a bit dusty!
Nick and Jaime Fordham loved walking along the Great Wall. The cable car up and the toboggan ride down were pretty good too!!!
Thankyou to everyone that joined us on this amazing adventure. A big word of congratulations to all of the children who flew to China and went on a real adventure - while still in primary school!!
