4 February 2014 (updated)
The 2 days in-school and 5 days out-of-school GuangDong Project week trip have been successfully completed.
It is my pleasure to take a group of such enthusiastic and responsible students to experience different service projects: working with primary students and elderly people, as well as, renovating the Palm Island War Game area, and meet new challenges.
It is also a valuable experience to work with all teacher group leaders (who are super caring and responsible). We overcame all big and small challenges that appeared to us during the project week together.
Please check the daily blog and photo to share our happiness and unforgettable moments.
