On Saturday 3 March 07, armed with maps of Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Thailand and with 32 questions to ask, Sheila and Geoff took the train from Dunbar to Newcastle to meet Ms Nan Lung, who is Program Director of the Teacher Training Centre for Burmese Teachers. (www.educationburma.net). Nan is currently studying at Newcastle University.
Nan knows Thezin, Headteacher of Hle Bee School and spent 4 hrs helping us plan the itinerary for our trip, think about how to get there and where to stay. She is a very gracious and clever person and it was a joy to meet her. She is going to visit Forthview Primary School in August 2007 and we look forward to welcoming her to Forthview.
Our itinerary is going to be:
5 July Edinburgh to London to Bangkok
6 July Bangkok
8 July Hle Bee School, Mae Sot
14 July Chiang Mai
18 July Sightseeing around Bangkok
21 July Bangkok to London
22 July London to Edinburgh
