Participating in the LawleyItalia Tour gave our students the opportunity to have a wide range of
experiences including seeing some of the world's most ancient and amazing landmarks. It also gave them the chance to meet some wonderful people from all over the world. It was also an opportunity for our
students to fulfil their role as young international ambassadors for their school and their country.
Everywhere we went people would commend the students for their polite and respectful manners and their friendly nature. I am proud to post an email from a couple who experienced our students' open and
kind approach to others and once again commend our tour participants because they made our school
and their parents proud. Thank you Mike and Dale Wyman of Michigan for your message and we
welcome you to the Mount Lawley family. I know one day you will visit Perth and we look forward to
your visit.

Subject: Wonderful Mount Lawley student
Hi Anne
My wife and I had an opportunity to travel to Venice Italy and stayed at the Hotel Belini on April 14, 2010. In the early evening we were enjoying a conversation with friends on the upper floor outside deck. We heard the sounds of young voices coming form the hallway near out table. Two ladies appeared in the doorway, excused themselves and left. I didn't think anything more about it. A few minutes later, one of them returned and gave us a pin with Mount Lawley on it. She went on to explain that the custom of the school is to present the pins to "new friends" that she meets on her trip to Italy. She spent the next 15 or so minutes with us. We recall her name as "Chloe".
As a compliment to her, her parents and your school, she was absolutely delightful. She was polite, articulate and very engaging. The point of this is to compliment you, your school and Chloe individually. She was with a group of students traveling in Italy for six weeks.
You should be very proud of her.
Mike Wyman
Dear Joseph, this is Dale Wyman (Mrs. Mike Wyman) here. I know, unusual name for a female; I was named after Dale Evans (of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans westerns). Anyway, Mike and I are so tickled to hear from all of you at Mt. Lawley! Miss Cloi is such a fabulous ambassador, not only for her school, but for her country, and we are not surprised to hear that Cloi received the Saint award right off the bat. Mike and I enjoyed the photos on your blog. Grazie! Si, si, si, please include our message and photo in your blog. Mike describes the photo as "Two Old People Enjoying Venice". Such a funny guy!
We will keep in touch, and if you or any of the LawleyItaliers are planning a journey to Michigan, USA, please let us know!
Sincerely,
Dale Wyman
Cara Dale e caro Mike grazie mille for sharing your thoughts, it means a lot to all of us especially Cloi and it reinforces what we try to teach our students, "you can always make a positive difference !" We look forward to hearing from you regularly. By the way, "old" is just a state of mind, you two seem young at heart to me ! A presto, Joseph Millimaci.
