SCHOOL HIGHLIGHT:

BOHUNT WOKINGHAM WELCOMES CHINESE STUDENTS: THE STUDENT CUT!

One of the students from China who took part in the crossTrust Chinese exchange writes about the experience: We were really happy to have an opportunity to have this unforgettable two-week trip in the UK and we have a lot of memories here.

We attended classes at Bohunt School Wokingham. Lessons in Bohunt are more various and interesting. For example, in the music lesson, students used the Gooove pizza to make their own tempo; in the mandarin lesson, they used Kahoot to play games about the knowledge they just have learned, etc. What impressed us most is the technology applied here. All students use their iPads at school and search for the information they need during the lessons, which is convenient and efficient. That is exactly what Chinese students wish to have in the classes in China.

The most interesting trip was the one to Cambridge. During that day we took a visit to the famous colleges and enjoyed picturesque scenes. We said that if we were able to be admitted to the university in the UK, we would want to study here! Also, the host families were so nice! They were brilliant and excellent! We spent a wonderful time with the host families. Besides the classes, some of us attended after-class club as well, learning Spanish, playing board game or chess and so on.

What’s more, the decorations of the classroom are beautiful and interesting. When we come into a classroom, we enjoy watching students’ creative works on the walls. British students do not have a textbook and teachers would give the print-out to them and asked students to stick it on their notebook, which is flexible and unique.

Except for the learning in school, we went on a number of trips to learn about the UK, its people and its culture. We visited London, British Museum, Cambridge and Oxford, etc.

Last but not least, we welcome you all to come to China. China is interesting but not the same as China town. Come and have a look!
