On Wednesday 8th December, as part of the Longhua Education Authority initiative to pair up Private and Public Schools, First Secretary Xiong organized for a delegation of teachers from Bromsgrove School Mission Hills (BMH) to visit Guanlan Central School (GCS) to formally launch our collaboration.
In an action packed afternoon, we attended some excellent lessons in Mathematics, Chinese and English before going on a tour of the school.
During the tour, we were fortunate enough to see the grade 2s preparing for their Arts Week as well as witnessing some great Chinese Art, Chinese Music and Chinese Dance activities.
In our ensuing discussion with Deputy Head Master, Mr Ho, Dr Wall and Professor Zhang we agreed to organize subject by subject collaboration in English, Chinese, Maths and Drama where we believe each school can learn from the other. We have already held some demonstration lessons in Morality and Physics and now move on to similar lessons in Drama and English.
Dr. Wall, Mr. Ho, Professor Zhang, Ms. Xiong and Mr. Chana all spoke very positively about the potential benefits we expect will flow from our collective efforts and we thank First Secretary Ms. Xiong for facilitating such opportunities.
