It was a nice break for us, the three teachers, during our students’ 4-day/3-night home stay though we are always on stand-by with our mobile phones and contact list of our students (just in case…). To all who are reading this blog, no worries, our hearts are with the students. We are concerned about their wellbeing and did what we could to ensure that things went well e.g. checking with the hosting family, calling our students, messaging/calling the respective parents when the need arises. Glad it turned out well.
As the saying goes… “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy”. We managed to keep ourselves busy with activities. Guess what? Besides sight-seeing, we went water rafting with the teachers of Shimen… screaming our lungs out! It was really EXCITING; an eye-opener for us.
How time flies! In a twinkling of an eye, the home stay had come to an end and now our students are with us. Though it was only a short four-day home stay, their experiences have taught them to be strong and independent. It is nice to see how they grow and glow.
Note : Just to let you know that I am the official photographer for this trip.
Hmmm… give me a thumb-up if you like the photographs yah.

All of us (Keming teachers & students) went on a day tour to Guangzhou today. It was pretty enriching with the visits to the museum and ‘Chen Jia Ci’ Ancestral Hall. Not only have we learnt more about the history of China, we learnt to appreciate it as well as the culture. After that, our students went shopping… probably the girls enjoyed it more than the boys. Well, that’s life, isn’t it? Do take a look at our photographs.
