On May 17th, a delegation of the Affiliated Middle School of Jining Institute visited the Confucius Institute in Edmonton. This delegation consisted of 12 students and 3 teachers led by Mr. Wang, the vice principal. The school is the partner school to Ottewell Junior High School (Confucius Classroom).
The delegation toured the CIE facilities and learned about the work and activities the CIE has been doing in promoting Chinese language and culture education here in Edmonton.
Ottewell School has been the partner school of Jining Institute Affiliated Middle School since 2009. Earlier this year, Ottewell sent a group of 24 students and 2 teachers to China to visit their partner school in Jining and this was the return visit to Edmonton from China.
