2015年CRI 中国第一夫人在北京会见了一群澳大利亚学生

 

China's first-lady has met with a group of Australian students in Beijing.

President¹ Xi Jinping's wife, Peng Liyuan, has met with 22 sixth-graders from Tasmania.

The young Australians have come here on the personal invitation² from the Chinese President, who met with the students while he was visiting in Australia last year.

"We have visited the Great Wall. It was a fantastic sight for the first day. Later that day, we saw the well-known pandas at Beijing Zoo. It was a great start to our trip. Then next day we went to Jingshan School to meet Chinese students, friends for life. We also went sightseeing to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden³ City. A wonderful experience."

Peng Liyuan says she hopes the trip to China will encourage the young students to learn more about this country.

"Your visit is an important cultural⁴ and educational exchange between Australia and China, which is of great significance⁵. I hope you will continue to study China's language and culture and be young ambassadors⁶ for China-Australia friendship."

The students from Hobart were part of the welcoming ceremony⁷ when President Xi Jinping made a stop-over in Tasmania in November.
