Edmonton Students Share the top prize at the International World Chinese Language and Culture Competition in China

At the recent International Chinese Language and Culture Competition named the 6th Chinese Bridge for High School Students, the 3 students from Edmonton Public Schools have been awarded the first prize in the group category. These 3 students are Shawna Truong and Drew Parker from McNally High School and Ivy Friesen from Ross Sheppard High School. This group of students led by Edmonton Public teacher, Dr. Xie Mian Mian (also the Cultural Coordinator of the Confucius Institute in Edmonton), went to China to attend this 2 week competition in Kunming City of Yunnan Province. They are grouped with another 3 students from Toronto to form the Canadian team. This team has worked extremely hard and achieved the top place in this competition. They were later awarded the first place in the final competition, and second as the most popular team in the world. This is a great achievement for local students and also underscores the effectiveness of Chinese language programming in Edmonton Public, a program that has won international renown.
