66. I realised that the students of Taicang Experimental
Primary School ended their school at 4.30pm or even
later.
They had to do their morning exercises before the start of
their lessons and they also have 5 minutes of playing
traditional games too. Their PE lessons included learning
how to play volleyball. Although we did not know how to
play the volleyball, we had a whale of a time playing it.

67. Besides having lessons with them, we and our buddies
went to another school called Jiu Qu Primary School for a
learning journey.
We went to see the silkworms, harvest mulberries, learning
how to make dumplings and even play traditional games
with the students there.
It was definitely a memorable experience for me!

68. My most memorable experience was when we were in the
China & Singapore Pavilion of the World Expo. The China
Pavilion may look very small from the outside. But it’s very
spacious and there are many exhibits inside.
I learnt that after the World Expo ends, all the pavilions will
be removed, leaving only the China Pavilion as a tourist
attraction.

69. I was very proud of my own country because even a small
country like Singapore is also part of the World Expo.
The best part of my visit to the Singapore Pavilion was
when we were told, we need not queue up. But when we
realised this, we were already halfway through the line, so
we climbed over a barrier to get out of the queue.
Overall, It was really a fascinating and memorable
experience!
