Thursday 6th June

Today was a very hot day. We boarded a coach at 9.am to travel to another campus of ECUST, which is called Fengxian to communicate with students who were learning English. We presented a powerpoint presentation of GCU and spoke of our city. Considering we had not prepared anything for this, luckily Anne our group leader  (Physiology Lecturer at GCU) had brought along her pen drive with information on the uni and various pictures of our city. All twelve students from GCU sat with a class full of Chinese students and sat and communicated with them helping them with their English and also learning from them about their city. 

Later in the day we all attended a special meeting  and were entertained and joined in with games which we all enjoyed and intend carrying this out at home also. We exchanged gifts, and emails of all 12 students were given to the students who are coming to GCU. Next was a tour of the campus which is the largest and newest in China supporting over 10,000 students.

I have many photos to show when I return of the vast amount of space and buildings that these campus' enjoy. The students and people of China are very fit, they are always doing some sort of sports and the campus has many pitches for football, basketball etc. They eat very healthy and amazing food.

Tomorrow we have classes in Chinese language again and Chinese folk songs and Chinese painting very busy day ahead.
