On September 26th 2010 13 students and 5 teachers from Oberthur Primary School will be heading to China for a two week cultural study tour. We leave Perth early Sunday morning and arrive in Shanghai later the same day after a lengthy stopover in Singapore. In Shanghai we will visit the World Expo and a few key sights there. Oue second stay is with homestay families from the Xinghi Primary School in Hangzhou. We will attend school for two days and also have a chance to do some sightseeing in Hangzhou. Our final destination in China is Beijing. We will visit the Great Wall of China, the Summer Palace, the Forbidden City and many others interesting places. We will have many opportunities to experience Chinese culture through the school visit, homestay and the sightseeing opportunities that we will have. We hope to be able to post photos and information about our activities as we go along. Keep a look out for future posts.
