Korea-Aus Culture Exchange 2010
 

Korea-Aus Cultural Exchange.

On Monday 26 July, Our sister club from Daegu Korea visited our centre.  We trained together, then  our Korean friends put on a demonstration of poomse and skipping.  That evening our Korean friends stayed over at some of our student's homes.  It was a great cultural experience for everyone.
