1st Nanjing Scouts Bake-Sale.

Our amazing, dedicated moms (and dads) contributed to the most spetalular bake-sale of the Term.  Our 1st Nanjing Scouts raised more than 6000rmb to donate to the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda.  The students were so excited by all the lovely goodies on sale.  A huge thank you to the 1st Nanjing Scouts parents who made this possible and all students for making this valuable contribution to the CCRCGP possible.

The giant panda, one of China's most endangered species, has won affection and attention worldwide with their "cute" appearance.
The giant panda lives mainly in the mountains of China's southwestern province of Sichuan and northwestern provinces Shaanxi and Gansu. They are threatened by habitat loss and a very low birthrate.

Director of the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda (CCRCGP) Zhang Hemin said great progress had been made in breeding of captive-bred pandas. Last year there were a total of 376 captive-bred giant pandas around the world, up 10.3 percent over the previous year.
