We're Off to China Soon! Print

Our names are Holly McKenzie and Taylor Hess; we were the Student Leaders at the Snowy River Campus.

So far, our experience of the school has been amazing. This has been such a great opportunity for us to develop as people. We’ve only been here for roughly two weeks and we have already made new friends, learnt new skills and faced our own challenges. Can’t wait to see what the weeks ahead hold!

As some already know, this Saturday the 42 students attending Snowy and a number of staff will be heading to China. We have been preparing ourselves for this for the whole two weeks we have been here, and our uniform came in this afternoon for us to collect.

We have been doing a range of activities you normally do while here, like surfing, bike riding, Bridge Building, and a few classes. We have also done a range of new classes to prepare us for China, including a Chinese language class and a lesson on Chinese history and its culture.

All 42 students here are immensely thrilled to be heading on the experience of a lifetime, but a lot of us also have a few nerves, as this will be the first time they’ve left Australia, and of course, they will be without their parents.

We're Off to China Soon!

That’s all from us for today. We hope you all enjoy the regular updates you will be getting from the other students leaders.

Sincerely,
Holly and Taylor
