The Fair is in Shanghai and starts at 5.30pm for students, and concludes at 8.30pm. I will be there earlier for Counsellor sessions, and will stay to guide you through your visit. You will need to miss at least Block 5 and lunch to make it on time, but I would suggest leaving school from Block 4…
Here’s the poster that’s been up for a week! If you are going to University, than I think this is a MUST, as there will not be another Fair accessible to you this large and diverse! Please be clear – you must inform myself and Dr Saavedra that you will be going and you MUST complete an OLF. I will be there on the day and can meet you and guide your Fair experience, but I cannot assist with any travel arrangements. Please chat to others who are going – some are going with parents – and plan to travel together.
