Outing - bookshop and JUSCO

Mdm Heng came to Qingdao on 8 March. She visited Qingdao Sports School. The children were delighted to meet her.

There was a welcome dinner and 青岛教育局局长 in attendance. At the same time we celebrated 三八妇女节.

Mdm Heng left Qingdao this morning.

The children entered their 6th training session this morning. It was their 2nd one-to-one session with all the China swimmers. The picture shows a Qingdao student leading all of them in the warming up exercise. They were eager to do well.

After 6 sessions of rigorous training, they deserved a reward and that was a shopping trip! Can you imagine their excitement? We went to a bookshop and the children bought books, VCDs, DVDs and games.

The next stop was JUSCO, a deparmental store. The children had a gala time at the toy section.

To round off the day, they were treated by Qingdao Sports School to their all time favourite "MACDONALDS". From the picture you can see the delight on the children's faces.
