5 to 8 March 2019
On 5 March, 46 Year 3 students including myself and four teachers embarked on a four-day school trip to Amphawa, Thailand.
Our trip consisted of a range of activities from sticky mud mangrove planting, water activities to shopping in Bangkok. We also had a thrilling experience when we watched fireflies and visited an old authentic palm sugar factory beside a river.
Apart from the activities, we also visited Wat Thamma Prasit Primary School, a local school. It was a great sight watching how eager the students were to learn from and listen to us. We divided ourselves in four groups to conduct English, Chinese and trust -building lessons, and games. The students did not have much and yet they had such a joyful spirit. We definitely realised how fortunate we were and our hearts were touched, and we became more determined to learn from their resilient spirits.All of us truly enjoyed all these experiences very much and it was an unforgettable trip.
