The 2022 Xiaoxiang Foreign Experts Volunteering Activity was held in Ningxiang city, Hunan province recently.
Volunteers from Canada, Pakistan, the U.S. and other countries brought a vivid and engaging science class to more than 100 teachers and students from Jinzhou Junior High School. It is the first time for the children in this rural area to have an opportunity to directly contact different cultures.
Adam McRoy, one of the volunteer representatives and academic principal of Cogdel Cranleigh School Changsha, said that this activity is important for foreign experts to integrate into Hunan more quickly, and the school will send more foreign professionals to join the volunteer service team.
