China Trip
Our year 9 students also made bookmarks using traditional bamboo weaving techniques. Many of them wrote some sentences in characters to thank their family and friends. Ready-made souvenirs to bring back!#AMDG #Chinatrip@MEP_Excellence pic.twitter.com/RyFkHqDaZO

China Trip
Students also learnt about Chinese medicine. They made their own sachets with Chinese herbs and 🌺 flowers. The majority of them went for the study and relax sachets because they wanted to sleep well and be focused in their Mandarin lessons.@MEP_Excellence#AMDG pic.twitter.com/kzZjqHjECf

We were delighted to welcome over 80 pupils from local primary schools for our Year 5 Taster Day. They spent a day in the life of an Ignatian with lessons in Music, PE, Science and Mandarin (delivered by some very capable Year 10's while Ms Li is on the China trip!)#AMDG pic.twitter.com/qLvF1e0NiH

We visited a secondary school (Shiji Jinyuan) to take part in activities with the Chinese students. We had a go at Chinese printing, which was very enjoyable, and turned out pretty good. - Berat and Andrews. 9L pic.twitter.com/R6qbT06JzY
