I attended the Chinese Bridge Summer Camp from July 17 to August 1 this year. First off, I would like to thank the people that made this trip possible for me (Hanban, Confucius Institute, and our very own Chinese School principal, Ms. Li Yiheng).

转瞬间，为期半个月的“汉语桥”中学生夏令营活动已经结束一个多月了。三镇中文学校的两名学生也安然回到学校正常上课。但是每次提及此次夏令营，他们总是激动不已，难以忘怀。 “汉语桥”中学生夏令营活动是由中国汉办组织，每年暑期举办，为期半个月。主要为学生免费提供汉语课程、中国文化课程（如剪纸、书法、水墨画、茶艺、武术等）、丰富多彩的交流活动（中外学生联欢、住家体验等）及文化体验活动（游览历史名迹等）。 通过本次的夏令营活动，两名学生增进了和中国大陆学生的交流，加深了他们对中国语言文化的了解，激发了他们对汉语的学习热情。这也是“汉语桥”中学生夏令营的宗旨所在。期待下学年三镇中文学校有更多的学生参加夏令营活动！ Tri-Cities Chinese Language School summer students Experience in China (2014) After one month, William Zhang and George Jiang are still excited about their summer camp on Mainl
