In Chinese culture, tea is an art form—a practice of mindfulness known as Gongfu Cha, which literally translates to "making tea with skill." Our students transformed the hall into a traditional tea house by hosting a Chinese tea party with food and drinks to sample and share.  

Our students experienced a ritual that has connected people for thousands of years. Thank you to all involved for organising.
