Korean students spend time studying at Blackville School

Two exchange students arrived at Blackville School from Korea in January.

Jin Seok Kim and Su Gyung Park are both Grade 6 students and will be attending school and visiting the community until February 28.

The Korean students were brought to this area for the feel of the rural and country environment. Over the years the school has hosted many foreign exchange students

The two host families this year are Brian and Denise Kelly and Dana and Quentin Campbell.

Both Grade 6 students, Kim and Park, came to Canada to study English, and said their favourite subject is math with Mrs. Carmel Fiander.

Park said she enjoys her host family and friends and enjoys gym class. Kim enjoys the snow in Canada and the people, he also says he really enjoys gym class.

The goal of bringing exchange students to Blackville is for the students to see what another culture is like and for them to help the exchange students learn all about the students and community of Blackville.
