On Aug. 18th, Olympic special production unit from Mexico National TV Station came to Children's Palace on Financial Street. Matier, the 8-year-old junior host of Mexico National TV Station, was in charge of the coverage. He is the youngest journalist covering Beijing Olympics.
 Matier had great interest in Chinese traditional education and gave a special report on it. He first went to the Chinese culture enlightening classroom, chatted with Chinese children in Chinese, played weiqi and practiced Chinese folk dance. Then he learned to sing ancient Chinese poetry "Jing Ye Si" with chorus students. He also tried playing zheng, wooden fish, gong and other traditional Chinese musical instruments. Matier said he was very happy to see the beautiful mansion-flavored community school, he hoped to come again and would definitely introduce everything here to people in Mexico.
