Little French Farmers at the Farm



The Taipei European School French Department Kindergarten School, stayed and toured Toucheng Farm for 3 days and 2 nights (May 20, 21, & 22). There were six girls and eleven boys with their devoted, dedicated and daring teachers: Florian, Loys, Annie and Wanting.


It's so fascinating and interesting to watch these children from different families, background and culture, playing, eating, caring (sometimes fighting! ), communicating in three different languages: French, English and Mandarin! Surprisingly they can switch the three spoken languages spontaneously and fluently!


Their response to the activities designed for them is indeed commendable, young as they are. Here are some pictures taken during the tour and activities at Toucheng Farm.

Making and tasting the ravioli they made.
drawing the sky lanterns, lighting and watching them ascending to the sky.

That was the first day!








As they walk to the rice field,


At the rice field to plant some rice seedlings,


Or collect fresh eggs from the chicken coop.

Look how busy she is!
Crushed ice for a cold snack! after planting rice.



At the stone grinder,


After lunch they had a short nap, then printed their T-shirt and went to the kilning area to watch how a kiln is made and ate some kilned sweet potatoes..

Their day ended with an animated French movie, and a rice ball soup snack!


That was the second day!






As they pack their luggage's, preparing to go home.


Each one has a pot of taro, as a souvenir!


One more shot, as we wait for lunch!
That ends our tour and stay at Toucheng Farm! See you again!
