On December 26, 2013, GreatChina hosted a new year’s celebration party to welcome 2014 and invited parents from GreatChina’s parents’ English class and the present cohort of foreign teachers of the True China program. The party was held at GreatChina’s headquarters in Chengdu and started with a lovely buffet. Parents carefully prepared all off the delicious food. To make the party more enjoyable and memorable, parents, foreign teachers and GreatChina staff members had prepared various performances. The whole party was filled with laughter and many memories.
