To celebrate the 70th anniversary of the foundation of the People’s Republic of China, to follow the footsteps of great men and to inherit the spirit of revolution, students of Grade 8 traveled to Changsha. (Day 3)
Today it fully cleared up and we all felt better. Today’s first stop was the Development of Science and Technology Study Base. There are something you can’t think of, such as building designs, organic plantations, art space, non-electric air purifier and the earthquake simulation room. What made us most impressive was that using the big core boards can construct a tall building of 57 floors in 19 days. The cost is low. Because it can enrich students’ cognition and develop their imagination, the base is an ideal place for young students to acquire the experience.




The second stop was Orange Isle, which is between the famous mountain and city, surrounded by water and is 5 km long. The narrow place is about 40 meters and the wide place is about 140 meters. The shape of Orange Isle is a long island, which is known as “First Continent in China”. It inspired students to love the great rivers and mountains of China and motivated students to respect great people.



The third stop we went to was Yuelu Mountain. Yuelu Mountain is one of 72 peaks of Hengshan Mountain. Because of the limited time, we only went to Pavilion Aiwan on Yuelu Mountain. After getting off the bus, we walked about half an hour, which tested children’s perseverance. Today’s life was full and we were all tired. Hope that everybody can have a good sleep.
