The message for our children is that, although we live halfway around the
world from these other children, we share many similarities in our lives,
our families, and our dreams. We need to learn from each other different
ways of living our lives, as well, and learn to be flexible and accepting
of other people. The world of the 21st century gets smaller all the time
with advances in technology and communication, and our students need to
become active members of this multicultural world community.
Just two years ago, we hosted a performing arts troop of students from
Beijing University Primary School, so our students are excited about
meeting new Chinese friends!
