Korean Garden - an exciting news from Temora High School

15/2/2014

0 Comments

 
"We are currently working on a project that has been in our hearts for a long time at Temora High School. We always wanted to build a Korean garden as a reminder to present and past students of the impact that Korean language and culture has had on our school since 1995. In the early years students at Year 9 and 10 carried their studies through to Year 12 over three successive years. Student have travelled to Korea and teachers have also travelled there to study many times. Since that time every Year7 student to pass through the school has studied Korean.  As a reminder of these experiences and as a mark of respect to all our Korean teachers and friends over the years, we plan to extend an existing garden to give a Korean element to what is really a European garden." --- an email extract from a Korean language teacher at Temora HS.
They are still working on the Korean Garden project.
Please contact Temora HS if you'd like to make any contribution/donation to their project.
