One Dragon Boat Festival a year, one year old and one healthy. The "Dragon Boat Festival", which has been passed down for more than 2,000 years, has gone through the smoke and clouds of vast history, and in the washing of the ups and downs, it is like a rainbow, reflecting the Chinese nation. In order to let the children know more about the traditional Chinese festivals and experience the meaning of the traditional festivals, New Asia School in Chaoyang District, Beijing, spent the Dragon Boat Festival with the students.
Through the guidance of the art teacher, the children carefully drew the hand-copied newspaper of the Dragon Boat Festival, showing their understanding and imagination of the Dragon Boat Festival with every stroke. The colorful brushes depict the fierceness of the dragon boat race, the story of Qu Yuan and the delicious zongzi. Each class arranged their wonderful works on the cultural wall in the corridor.
On the day of the fifth day, the pomegranate blossoms are in full bloom, and the charm of the Dragon Boat Festival fills the air. This traditional festival not only carries the rich customs of eating zongzi, racing dragon boats, and hanging mugwort leaves and calamus, but also contains a profound imprint of Chinese culture, conveying people's prayers for a better life and the persistence and inheritance of family and country feelings. The hand-copied newspapers carefully drawn by the children filled the campus with the fragrance of rice dumplings.
In this special Dragon Boat Festival, every corner of the Primary School of New Asia School is filled with a strong festive atmosphere, and children experience the tradition in joy and grow in practice. Let us inherit the excellent culture of the Chinese nation together, so that the beauty of the Dragon Boat Festival will always remain in the hearts of children!
