Farewell to Han Byeul

Han Byeul came to North East Valley Normal School in February 2010. She came from Korea with her parents. We were very lucky to have Han Byeul come to our school and we are sad that she has to return to Korea. Han Byeul learned a lot of English this year and made lots of new friends. Her friends and class mates helped her to learn English and it was not long before she was able to speak to them in English.


Han Byeul likes writing and drawing and whilst at North East Valley Normal she started to learn how to write in English. She wrote a lot of things in English in her writing book.




We had a lovely dinner together to farewell Han Byeul and her father before they returned to Korea. Sarah and James invited us to their home and Sarah prepared a wonderful dinner with sushi and sashimi. We all brought some different food to share.











We had some delicious stuffed mushrooms - they were stuffed with cream cheese and lemon juice.





There were several kinds of sushi. Some were vegetarian, some were chicken and some were tuna.

We also had some delicious kumera fritters and some very tasty prawns.






Han Byeul looked very beautiful in her hanbok, her traditional Korean costume. She wore it specially for the occasion. Her hanbok was so lovely and was made with very bright coloured material and pretty embroidery.











Look at Han Byeul. Doesn't she look beautiful in her hanbok ?
We were so lucky that she wore her hanbok to school so that we could all see how beautiful it is. Thank you Han Byeul and have a safe trip back to Korea.
