Electives & Activities
To ensure a comprehensive learning experience, a range of optional cultural, historical and social activities are offered by the Academy in both Beijing and Shanghai.
This diverse array of electives and activities are aimed at providing our students with the opportunity to move beyond the classroom and expand their knowledge on China's dynamic culture and rich history.
Our interactive culture workshops offer a fun and engaging way for students to experience the Chinese way of life for themselves. These workshops are based on the most vibrant aspects of the Chinese culture and may include topics such as Peking Opera, Chinese paper-cutting, painting, Chinese medicine and an assortment of culturally-unique games like Mahjong and Chinese Chess.
