School partnership workshop
On 8 September representatives from 34 schools from the six overseas countries currently involved in the 'Rivers of the World' project will arrive in London to take part in a week-long programme to strengthen their relationships with their partner schools in London. They also have an opportunity to visit their link schools, take part in 'relationship-building' seminars at City Hall, and involve themselves in the Thames Festival.

Well done to all the schools that took part this year – the artwork looks amazing!

The online exhibition of all the artworks will go live on the Rivers of the World website on the 10th of September 2008.
