International Links - China

Aldersbrook runs an exchange programme with a Chinese School. Ten children from Year 5 travelled to Kunming in China. In that time they visited a range of different schools and settings and had amazing opportunities to lean calligraphy, tai chi, pottery, dance and even how to play the 'guzheng' musical instrument. The staff were amazed at how easily the pupils communicated and played with their Chinese buddies and it was an amazing experience for all!
