In the drawing competition jointly held by Swissnex in Boston and Swissnex in China, students in China, U.S. and Switzerland were asked to picture their future job: “Imagine yourself in the year 2040. If your dream job doesn’t exist, try to imagine it. Show us what it will look like 20 years from now.” Within less than one month, Swissnex in China has received large numbers of drawings from Chinese talented students with TEN best drawings standing out. Let’s now enjoy their great imagination and creativity!
And appreciation goes to the great support from:
• Mr. Shenghang He, IG7-1 and IG7-2 art class at Changshu International School
