Together with great efforts by our teachers, I had a very special day-trip to Trollhättan with more than 20 students together!
Click here to find some detail of this exciting event. Perhaps some extra thoughts form my observation here.
It's a very content-rich day with intensive activities, including train trip, innovation center visiting for the most of the day, then a city hiking around the canal historical attractions, a special receiving from the canal museum.
When having many children going out together without parents, apart from the visible learning from activities and practices, I clearly see other details showing good signs of their growth in terms of mutual care, issues and conflicts handling in their spontaneous ways. Sometimes, it's not so obvious to catch such small stories, but they do happen, especially for those who are relatively sensitive with delicate feelings, what they have seen, felt and thought are usually much more than what we adults might know, yet the kids may not mention so much afterwards.
I'm so happy being helpful, as a volunteer, on the interesting day, I appreciate the chance to know better the children, and hear positive feedbacks from many participants. Our efforts are worth it.
