Cyclos, small pedalled carriages, a more modern version of the hand-pulled rickshaw, are a common sight on the streets of old Hanoi. For safety reasons they are not allowed on the busy roads with their thousands of motorbikes buzzing around, but plenty of the vehicles, painted red

Visit historic Vietnam See amazing sights

The Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum in Hanoi was built (1973-75) from materials all over Vietnam to honour the national hero, Ho Chi Minh. The impressive building stands in a fine garden and houses the hero’s body. Visitors are asked to dress respectfully.

The Nine Dynastic Urns in Hue. These huge metal urns, covered in beautiful decorations, are lined up outside Mieu Temple. They were made in 1836 to celebrate the prosperity of the country and its emperors.

 The Thien Hau Pagoda, Ho Chi Minh City, was built in the early 19th century by the Cantonese community. It is richly decorated and contains three statues of the goddess as well as a wooden boat hanging from the ceiling.

 The Chu Chi Tunnels are 121 kms of underground tunnels created by Vietnamese fighters. Visitors may crawl round some safe areas and some tunnels have been enlarged for Western tourists of a larger size. Some underground conference rooms have been restored and lit.

Report on the Pagoda School visit

When we first approached the Pagoda School in a poor area of the city consisting mainly of squatters’ huts, we felt rather nervous, but that feeling soon left when we entered the building.

The principal, teachers and students were all very welcoming. The facilities are pretty basic, but everything is kept clean and tidy. We were particularly impressed by the large garden which is looked after by the students and used to grow fruit, herbs and vegetables for the midday meal which the school serves free to everyone in the school, ensuring the students get at least one decent meal a day.

We had been collecting books which we thought would be suitable for some months and the first job of some of us was to catalogue the books and get them ready for the school library.

Our donation of books clearly pleased everyone.

Our daily task was to teach English. We met all the students of every age. We had received some training in advance and had a number of games and activities ready. Some worked well and others had to be changed so we were busy every night thinking of new lessons and preparing the materials.

We talked a lot about the school and brainstormed ways in which we could help. Someone suggested painting the rather plain classrooms in bright colours. We discussed the idea with the principal. He agreed at once so we collected money among ourselves and spent a Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning painting. All our efforts were rewarded by the surprised and excited smiles of the students on Monday morning!

Some people say it is a disadvantage of the school trips that they are a loss of study time, but they are also a wonderful opportunity for non-academic learning. We don’t normally paint walls at school, but actually it was an amazing learning experience.

Internet chat among students who took part in the trip

Diane :

My mind is still in Vietnam. It was all so wonderful and those children! I feel they’ll be my friends for life.

Sarah :

Yes, my mum says she is pleased I went and that I am now a much more independent person.

Diane :

Yes, that is one big advantage of these trips - you have to do things for yourself and learn some independence away from Mum doing all the work and getting you ready for everything.

Noel: I still think you were crazy going there - it’s amazing none of you were ill. Think of all the diseases you could have caught, the dangerous insects and unhygienic food. My Dad will only let us go to places with good water, fine hospitals and high standards.

Dad says developing countries are a danger to health.

Sarah :

You have a point, but as none of us did fall ill you cannot claim it is that risky - and you missed some wonderful sights like Mr. Cheung covered in noodles.

Noel: LOL - what happened?

Sarah :

We went on this cookery course and Mr. Cheung tried to show off how he could toss the noodles up in the air and catch them. But he couldn’t and they were all over him - luckily they weren’t hot!

Guy: They were very nice at that cookery school, weren’t they?

(10)

Diane :

My favourite person was our guide, Mr. Tran - he was just so kind!

Guy: Yes, he never showed any impatience - and, as you say, very kind.

Sarah :

Everyone was kind apart from that bad-tempered cyclo driver, but the guide was the kindest.

Harry: Here are the results of my e-survey on the groups favourite Vietnamese food:

1. Banh mi – the best sandwiches ever!

2. Spring rolls in all their different forms 3. Rice with clams

4. Barbecue pork dumplings 5. Pho

Guy: Well, I can say one big advantage of the trip has been our increased cultural awareness. I know some Vietnamese phrases (I keep on wanting to say Chao, Cam on, Tot and Xin Loi), and some Vietnamese history and I can cook Vietnamese food!

Noel: Hey, what do those mean?

Guy: Hi, thank you, good and excuse me.

Diane :

I wonder where next year’s trip will be to?

Note from Mrs. To about a letter from a parent

Dear Sandra,

Sorry to give you one more job but I must go to a meeting and I need this for this evening. A parent has written to the principal about a number of matters. Below are a couple of paragraphs referring to our school trips overseas. Please help me prepare a short survey to get the opinions of the parents at tonight’s PTA meeting. I want to ask about the points I have underlined. Please keep the questions short and simple wh-/how ones.

Let me now turn my attention to the matter of the school trips overseas. I have a number of points to make about them. First, they seem to be going further and further away from Hong Kong. I think the destinations should be kept close to Hong Kong. Then, the trips should be shorter in duration than they are now.

It is my opinion that they are too expensive too. Putting a child through school is already a costly business and this is just an extra burden. It might even be a good idea to have the trips less often – you could have them every two or three years. I think many parents too would prefer the trips to be in the Easter holiday. And every trip should have a sports side to it as parents regard sending their children on such trips as a way of keeping them fit*.

By the way, I vaguely remember we mentioned a point at our meeting which we thought parents might bring up at the PTA meeting. Do you remember what it is? Can you turn it into one of our survey questions?

*I doubt if this is the real reason they send them. Please find out what others think.
