CNY 2010 - A visit to the school!

What a beautiful school! The canadian influence is everywhere and the lobby is absolutely spectacular. Jen was saying that the school is speaking with Bill Helin about creating a new totem for the school, incorporating Canadian and Chinese culture in the sculptures. We met lots of people as the staff were in for a pro d conference (I wanted to sit for the lectures as it was on lower school assessment!). We visited Shea and Ro's classrooms, the cafeteria and poked through all the floors of the LLAC with Jen. We did some awesome acting on the stage as Shea directed us in some improv exercises.

Wing, Jen's assistant, is really cool and was running around getting mics for the conference speakers. We saw the tech booth where Stanley works (piles of junk food to get through the shows!). The centre is fantastic and the music and performing and visual arts rooms were filled with instruments and artwork. We got uniforms for Shea and Ro from Joseph Embroidery shop in Wan Chai via cab. We were lost for a bit as we were deposited in the wrong block, but Jen figured it out and we made it just fine. What a fun afternoon!
