Terrace teachers Ray Walker, Nancy Bose and Scott Corp are sharing the images and experiences of the four weeks they spent in southeast Asia last summer during a Pacific Rim Initiatives tour. Their presentation is available to any interested group in the community. Terrace Review — Wednesday, November 21, 1990 B9 | Teachers report on School District #88 teachers Nancy Bose, Scott Corp and Ray Walker shared their south east Asia experiences with an audience of almost 100, in the library meet- ing room on a recent evening. The three teachers were partici- pants in a four-week Pacific Rim Initiatives tour of Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand last July, designed to expose the teachers to the cultures, peoples and school systems of the three countries. Prior to their departure, they promised to form a teaching unit providing slides, souvenirs and stories from their. trip at presenta- tions on professional development days, to the school board and also for the general public. The evening’s program included a-video of Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand, and a brief over- view of south east Asia from » Nancy’s perspective. She described eee the hot, humid climate as being ‘Where To Find It’ like "standing in a hot, steamy M2 bathroom with your winter coat on." Nancy stayed with a Thai family tor one week of her stay. She felt that was the highlight of her trip. . Scott Corp showed slides of Singapore, otherwise known as "Instant Asia" and Malaysia. He aptly described the Durian fruit (so named because of its thomy skin; “duri" in the Malay language means "thorn".) as "eating custard next to a cesspool". Ray Walker added when he showed his slides of Thailand, "Our slides just can’t capture the sounds and smells of Asia." The three teachers were impressed at the level of English the natives displayed throughout their tour, and the respect shown by the students for each other, their teachers and their guests. Both the teachers and their visual resources ate available upon request. Contact Nancy at Thorn- hill Primary School, Scott at Thornhill Junior Secondary, or Ray at Skeena Junior Secondary.
