In a high-spirited atmosphere, Peng, an accomplished Opera Singer, and Melania joined the students in their English, astronomy and Peking Opera classes, and watched their singing and dancing performances, state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
The students showed their self-designed Qipao, a kind of traditional Chinese dress, and invited the guests to help finish their wash painting of a little panda.
The students also presented their calligraphy and handicraft to the ladies and gave performances at the school auditorium.
