In this video conference which was our first one as a club. We spoke about Melton Mowbray. We tasted local food which we are famous for producing like, Pork Pies and Stilton Cheese. There was a very good question and answer session with the students. During the talk between Hong Kong and the UK we made lots of friends and this was followed up with further e-mails.  This video conference was great as we actually talked to students who were thousands of miles away and learnt about their school day and their celebrations.  It was interesting to hear what songs they liked and what their favourite groups were.
