On Thursday, 2nd December a group of twenty-six Year 8 and Year 9 MRSHS students were finally able to meet their sister school friends from Taiwan JuiFang Industrial High School in an online meeting. They have been working together for a month in two country water projects, along with exchanging postcards between the two schools. During the meeting, both school students were so excited as they shared their school stories and the scenic spots in their areas.
