a very successful Summer 2019 program.

A heartfelt Thank You to all

We did NOT go

 the years from 2020 to 2024.  As there were still surges; and we, here in Canada, are far from being Covid-19 free!

We are, however, in contact with Nanjing thinking of various ways we might want to deliver a program this year in 2025. So feel free to contact Eleanor for up-dates for 2025.

 

      There is NO application process right now. I shall update the site as new information becomes available.
