Dear
Parents/Carers,
School
Council has been notified of the dates for the 2015 exchange program between
Princes Hill Primary School and Po Leung Kuk Luk Hing Too Primary School in
Hong Kong, with a three day visit to Luocun Shiyan Primary School, Foshan in
mainland China.
Preparations
are now underway for the program and we invite parents to attend an information sharing session on Wednesday 6 May at 5.15pm in 5/6 Neighbourhood to
hear about the program.
Duration of
the visit will be from Sunday 25th October until early morning
return on Tuesday 3rd November. [PLEASE NOTE: ARRIVAL BACK IN
MELBOURNE IS ON MELBOURNE CUP DAY].
Three staff members will accompany the children. Students will be
billeted with host families whilst in Hong Kong, and travel to Foshan, mainland
China with their host sibling and teachers from both schools. In Foshan the PHPS and PLKLHT buddies will be
hosted by a Foshan student’s family for 2 nights.
The
approximate cost will be $1,900 per child plus travel insurance [about $100]
and $200 spending and excursion money, plus the visa for mainland China [about $60].
The children
from PLK Luk Hing Too will arrive in Melbourne on Sunday 22nd November
and stay with their exchange family until Monday 30th November for
their part of the exchange.
