First Days in China



We flew to China with Finnair. Finnair has direct flights from Helsinki to Shanghai. Our group of Finns was divided right after we landed to China. Some of us stayed in Shanghai, while others travelled to Suzhou to two different schools. I was in the group that went to the Suzhou Industrial Park Institute of Vocational Technology (SIPIVT). http://www.ivt.edu.cn/


On friday we had cultural lesson on the campus and we also get to know some of the faculties at the school. Their classrooms and laboratories are quite impressive compared to the vocational schools in Finland, but that’s probably also because in Finland vocational students have more practise in companies and here in SIPIVT students practise more at the school with equipment provided by companies.






The cultural lesson prepared by the students was informative and we get to try some writing and cutting of the sakura blossoms from paper. I really enjoyed the lesson.
