A boy stands on a diving platform during a training course at an athlete
training school in Shanghai August 31, 2006. The banner reads, "in glory for the
country".Some 20 children, aged 7 to 12, train at the school as amateur divers.
Children educated in this school not only receive diving training but also study
the same general courses as other preliminary school students. Those who have
outstanding performances in diving are admitted to professional teams and
prepare to compete in various competitions. Wu Minxia, an Olympic gold
medallist, used to be a student at the school. [Reuters]
