Our local primary school teaches Chinese and as a result 4 of our children are learning the Chinese language (both speaking and writing the characters). Rory has been doing it for 8.5 years now. He no longer goes to primary school but was lucky enough to be excepted into Adelaide High School through the Language program. He has been there for almost a semester and was chosen by his Chinese teacher to be interviewed by a reporter about learning Chinese in school. The article was in the Saturday Advertiser a couple of weekends ago. A found a link to this article but the photo of his class isn't included.

I know that Heavenly Father has blessed Rory with this ability to learn the Chinese language. He is also studying Spanish but is not enjoying it that much. Probably because he is starting for scratch so it requires more effort than the Chinese is. He is doing so well with both languages and I look forward to seeing his progress through his high school years.
