On November 19, 2016 all the institutions offering Chinese Mandarin courses jointly presented an end of year program at the auditorium of the American School of Asuncion.

This cheerful event was presided by Mr. Alexander Yui, the Ambassador of the Republic of China (Taiwan) to the Republic of Paraguay, and attended by authorities from different local institutions, students, and their parents.

The students gave presentations including speech, recitations, videos, songs and theatrical performances in Mandarin, demonstrating what they have learned this year.
