Victoria was the answer!

When Victoria's Mum came in to talk about Hong Kong we all learned something new! Very oddly though Victoria was the answer to many of the questions!
A huge thank you to Victoria's Mum who let us smell the spices that gave Hong Kong its name, she made delicious food for us to taste and even showed us how to play a game they play in Hong Kong! Fabulous!
