Day 9

During the last day, we took a 6 hour plane back to Singapore. Everyone were very tired but yet very happy that we can finally came back to our own house after a few days in China. I really miss the weather there, most importantly is that i learnt quite alot of their history and how the students learn in their school is different from ours. I will also miss Tai Shan, the National Stadium and the water cube. Goodbye China.
Day 8

After eating our breakfast, we went to Great Wall, a place where every Chinese should know. We walk a distant to take a type of "vehicle" which brought us up to Great Wall. When we reached, we still have to walk a short distance before we really reach the end. I find that it was very cooling and very refreshing there and there were alot of people too. The last place we went to was Yi He Garden, then after that we took a plane back to Singapore.
Day 7

We took a plane to Beijing. When we reached, we went to the Forbidden City, a very famous place. Forbidden City talk about history. We went back to check in and we went to have our dinner. After dinner, we went to National Stadium and Aquatics. We were having so much fun as we find that it was a very nice place.
Day 6

We wnt to to climb the Tai Shan mountain. We encourage one another that we must climb up to the top, even Teachers also support us. I just need to think of KFC and to take the cable car i got the motivation to climb even faster because after the eating we need not walk anymore. After climbing, we went to a shop selling tea and everyone were talking about tea. I still find that rose tea is the nicest of all.
Day 5

We went to the Qufu Experimental School. The people there were very friendly. We also wentt to visit their classroom. We had Chinese lesson there after that went for the P.E lesson too. After that we went to the basketball court to watch a match between their school and our school. I feel proud when our school won the match. After that we went to Tai Art.
Day 4

We went to the Confucius Mansion, Confucius Temple and Confucius Forestry. We learnt about how the Confucius house look like at the Mansion. Confucius Temple is very big and nice while the Confucius Forestry is the Confucius and his family Tomb. Today is the most tiring day because we have been walking the whole day.
Day 3

We went to the School again and this time they gave us a long talk. The talk is about lotus flowers which i find it very boring. The food we eat is much more nicer than the food on the plane. After eating, we went back to the School. Teacher called us to see their classroom while they were having a test. After awhile, all the students suddenly rushed down to have their P.E lesson. Teacher brought us to one of the student's house. The parents were very friendly, they gave us food, fruits and gifts and even send us back. I really like this visit to the student's house.
