Two years ago,a small town in Changhua started to grow healthy rice. The healthy rice was not grown by farmers but by the students from a small primary school of only about fifty people.

What's better,the school made money from selling the rice and giving farming classes to the public. With the money,the school could help the students who wished to go to foreign countries some day. Today the dream is becoming real — the students are flying to Japan to share their special farming experiences,and have fun over there,of course! 44We all feel very proud that even students from a small town can make themselves seen in the world ,” said one of the teachers.
