After the launch day in late May, we then started a serious of English training, and paralympic spirit training in order to prepare for the Paralympic School Day in Jul. 20 of us came from different parts of the background, from strangers to be keen partners and friends, it was an amazing experience in my life.
The training series was so intensive, 3 sessions/week, to me as I have my 9 to 5 work in day time, I felt a bit exhausting, yet I know this is a once in a life time experience for me, I should treasure and learn as much as possible in the invaluable training sessions. The sucessful Paralymoic School Day showed our effort, we are all delighted to have such results - participants enjoyed the day and they had better understanding to individual with disabilities and adapted physical activity.
After Paralympic School Day, we participated workshops related to communication, teamwork and organisation skills. It just like a revision of what I have learnt in my undergraduate studies. I appreciated those trainers, as they used a more vivi ways to teach us these kinds of "textbook knowledge".
I am expecting the Youth Forum in early September, watching Olympic right now, make me feel the atmosphere in Beijing, I believe Paralympic would be another wonderful sport events, especially Beijing is the host! With the success of Beijing Olympics, I am expecting another success in Paralympic Beijing :D
See you all in Beijing!
