A group of students from China's Inner Mongolian Autonomous Region were warmly welcomed by Slovakia Pavilion staff members on August 21.
The students were from a school set up by China's renowned charity program Project Hope.
The pavilion's staff members gave small "animals" made of twisted balloons to students as gifts. Staff members also translated Slovakia folk songs into Chinese pinyin, the most common romanization system for standard Mandarin, and let the clown in the pavilion to teach these students to learn these songs in pinyin. Those students who sang well also received Slovakian hand-made dolls as rewards.
This was the first time that the pavilion held such charity activities and it took two week for the staff members to prepare this event, pavilion staff members said.
