July 14, Shenyang
The first school we visited here in Shenyang was the German School Shenyang. We asked lots of questions as it is set up for the German education system. This means that students here get the same education as they would in German schools. It will be a relief for my parents, as they will see my learning progress against the German system. This will also make it much easier for me to prepare for the Abitur exams and apply for universities back in Germany and go back there in a few years. 3 of their students already took Abitur exams in German. I hope that they can share their experience.
Being sporty and a mathematics fan is not in conflict, and I am one of those people. That is why I was pleased to see its Sports Summer Festival and their awards in the Math Kangaroo, the largest youth math competition in the world. Attending the competition just in your own school is really convenient, especially with free exclusive training!
I was surprised to see that they apply learning approaches to various activities, such as documentation skills used in Adventure Summer Camp, combining both documenting the daily route and outdoor adventure preparation. Imagine using the skills and information you just learned to explore jungles and caves, camp under the stars, build a shelter, fish, and tree rappel. How fun!
