Computer Learning Centre for Kids "I really feel that it‘s important, if there is to be business developâ€" ment down the line, that young people are educated so that they grow up understanding each other. Jan‘s goal in securing the funds for the scholarships was to ensure that future generations of Russian and western young people grow up understanding each other and learning to relate on the most basic levels. "I‘d like to keep Appleby involved on an ongoing basis with three students every year, but I‘d also like to place students at other schools too. Because everybody has different strengths and offers different things, I would like to see many schools participating but look at Appleby as the one who spearheaded the whole thing. I‘d like eventually to see 20 or 30 kids over here every year, and Appleby wouldn‘t be able to handle all of them."

Our two cultures don‘t really think in the same vein, and most of the people who have worked over there for any extendâ€" ed period of time agree that it is not misunderstanding the words, it‘s misunderstanding basic conâ€" cepts. They have been structured for many years to think in a particâ€" ular manner and we think in an entirely different way." ings in Russia, I have learned that you can be sitting around a barâ€" gaining table thinking that you have an agreement, but when you start putting it down on paper, you virtually have to start all over again because the basic premise isn‘t at all what you thought it was. It‘s very difficult and that‘s one of the reasons why it‘s so important, if we are going to be doing busiâ€" ness and they are going to be able to develop their own economy and trade with Europe or the western world that they are able to function in a business environment," she explains.

Three years ago, a group of eight students and three teacher/chaperones from Leningrad spent three weeks here, attending classes and sightseeing. the following year, a group of Appleby students travelled to Russia and spent two weeks living in the homes of the students they had met the previous year and learning about life behind the Iron Curtain. Last year, through the efforts of Appleby parent George Yui, there were two Russian students â€" Evgueni Tchourilov in Junior Year and Ocsana Sidorcheva in Upper One. Another group of 11 Appleby students and three chaperons returned from a twoâ€"week visit to Russia in midâ€"June.
