A Welcome Visit from China

Oct 1, 2024

We were delighted to welcome eleven pupils from Hangzhou Foreign Language School, located in Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang in China, for a week-long cultural visit to Cokethorpe School.

Six visiting pupils settled into the Prep School with our pupils keen to ‘buddy-up’ and introduce them to life as a Prep School pupil. Five further pupils were welcomed into Lower House, joining our First Form as they navigated their formative weeks in the Senior School. A carousel of lessons including sport, drama, music, and art were sampled by our visitors, all the while enhancing their English vocabulary. Lunch proved to be a hit with dining options from all over the world available to enjoy during their stay.

At the end of a busy week, our host pupils bid their new friends a fond farewell, with thoughtful gifts exchanged, and new memories made.
