Chinanews, Shanghai, Jul. 14 – July 12 was the last day of the summer camp held for children adopted by foreigners. More than 30 families from U.S., Canada and Australia brought their adopted children to Shanghai. During the activity, these children got some knowledge of on traditional Chinese culture.
This two-week summer camp was jointly1 held by China Overseas Exchanges Association2 and All-US China Cultural and Educational Exchanges Association. Before arrival in Shanghai, the adoptive parents and the adopted children had visited Beijing, Xi’an, Hangzhou, Chengdu and Guilin. “I enjoyed such journey,” said Mei Ming, a girl who could speak fluent English. When talking about this summer camp she was excited: “Such journey made me know many Chinese children who were also adopted, and the city of Shanghai made me feel comfortable.” When Mei Ming was still a baby 12 years ago, she was deserted3 by her parents. But fortunately, she was quickly adopted by Ron Hollander, a teacher who taught at the Beijing-based Tsinghua University at that time. Hollander revealed4 that Mei was his only daughter, and he loved her. Nine-year-old Lilli Jia was the only child who came from Canada. After the summer camp finished, she and her mother will visit her birthplace Gaozhou, a remote town in Guangdong Province. They saw a drama presented by Chinese children in Shanghai Children Palace on Friday. After the summer camp, most of these foreigners will visit the children's birthplaces together with the kids.
