Week 5- Final Assessments, our final Goodbyes
Time sure flies! Week 5 marks our final week in Longmen Junior High School. It was also a short week as Friday happened to fall on Dragon Boat Festival, a major public holiday in Taiwan.
The week started with a Geography lesson by Mindy. She covered many topics which are relevant to their Grade 8 syllabus, such as South East Asia's trade and ASEAN.
During one of the days in this week, we got to visit another school in the more mountainous area of New Taipei City. At this High School, we got to sit in one of their sports classes. The students in this class are all capable athletes who balance studies and sports.
Because of their sports trainings, this class had lessons until late at night.
We even managed to play a friendly game of volleyball with the students!
Our Last Day
Our last day of IP started with Mindy's lesson, a light-hearted introduction of Singapore's culture.
In the afternoon, we had a formal farewell ceremony, which was graced by all those who had supported us during this 5 week stint- our CTs, HODs, Principals, representatives from NTNU and our student buddies. It was a fitting and emotional end to our stint in Longmen Junior High School.
We ended off with a certificate presentation ceremony which marked the official end of our 5 weeks at Longmen Junior High School
Without knowing it, the seven of us lived together for 5 weeks and got to know each other much better during this time. We said our final best wishes as we parted ways on the morning of 7 June with fond memories of these experiences!
