Chapter 64 - Campus Culture Week
Yang Jinghui still remembers when he was in elementary school, the blackboard of each class was hung with "study hard, every day", and on the back wall of the class, it was posted that it was a learning garden, which was uniformly written "to achieve four modernizations, running to 2000", at that time in Yang Jinghui's heart felt that all of this was extremely far away, because it was the 80s, and there was a whole decade between the 90s. It's just that the rush to the year 2000 is related to the realization of scientific and technological modernization, and those modernizations should be very difficult to achieve, and it is certainly not something that can be achieved overnight, so it becomes unattainable in the heart.
There are similar topics such as the teacher's voice, which will inspire all students to have a strong sense of patriotism - in 1997, China will resume the exercise of sovereignty over Hong Kong; In 1999, the exercise of sovereignty over Macao will be resumed, because every now and then the teachers will add the historical background of the events to these two topics, for example, Hong Kong, at that time, we will restore sovereignty and take back Hong Kong after 100 years of forced lease by British imperialism; For example, the resumption of Portugal's 400-year colonial rule over Macau from the Ming Dynasty was added to Macau, because 100 years and 400 years were added respectively, so Yang Jinghui also felt that this period was extremely far away at that time.
A few years ago, a female singer named Ai Jing played and sang a folk song "My 1997", rap-style singing, "When to go to Hong Kong, what is Hong Kong like, I can go to Hong Kong, he can come to Shenyang, come soon in 1997......" once again made Yang Jinghui have a delusion, feeling that Hong Kong's return does take some time,
And unconsciously, this year is 1997, quietly in the era that once thought it was far away, but he has not become old, when he is idle to think about this uncalculated gap, Yang Jinghui feels funny, Hong Kong is about to return to the embrace of the motherland in July, what will happen then, Yang Jinghui is looking forward to it. The death of the chief designer of reform and opening up in February made the Chinese people sad, and everyone felt that he had brought great changes to the lives of the Chinese people, and at the same time, they all sighed in their hearts: Hong Kong was back in less than 5 months, but his old man could not see that day.
As Hong Kong's return to the motherland is approaching, TV stations have begun to broadcast many songs one after another to promote the atmosphere for Hong Kong's return. The TV station broadcasts the well-made MTV on a loop, and many songs are sung by stars and singers from across the Taiwan Strait, such as "1997 Eternal Love" and "1997 AD", which stir the hearts of Chinese people and Hong Kong compatriots.
"Let the children remember this historical moment, may this moment leave a mark on their hearts, and remember that this moment has inspired them in the future, whether they succeed or fail, so we should choose to carry out activities to act as a carrier ......." At a regular weekend meeting in June, Yang Jinghui proposed an idea to his colleagues. After heated discussions, everyone agreed that it was too few and not enthusiastic enough to hold a single event, so we simply held a campus culture week to welcome the return of Hong Kong with our own enthusiasm. Different from when Yang Jinghui first arrived in Lijiawa, last year's preschool was transferred to the first grade, so the school now has four grades, namely the first grade, the third grade, the fifth grade and the sixth grade.
After everyone went back to discuss, everyone gathered again, so the cultural week was determined to consist of several competition units, namely "Talent Show Competition", "Essay Competition", "My Dream Speech Competition", "Knowledge Competition", and "Village Games". With the exception of the essay contest, it was agreed that other activities should be held every afternoon. So close to the week of July, Lijiawa Village was unprecedentedly lively, and the people of the whole village knew that the school was going to hold a big event, which parent didn't want to see the wonderful performance of their baby?
The teachers attached great importance to the activities, and the talent show showed their unique skills, and the first-grade children danced the dance "Planting the Sun", holding the sunflower cut out of colored paper in their hands to interpret the golden hope; The third-grade children rehearsed the children's play "Snow White", the head teacher played the vicious queen, and the tall male classmates squatted down to play the role of the little pretentious, and the strong contrast made the audience laugh. The fifth grade performed a poem recitation, "We will meet again in ten years"; The Year 6 students sang the chorus "Singing and Smiling". The playground was full of villagers, and their eyes were locked on their own babies, and at this moment, both the children on the stage and the parents under the stage were extremely proud.
During the village sports meeting, the design arranged the participation of parents, the first grade children and parents of the common competition project is that the children dress up as vegetables, the father plays the porter, from the starting point to the way, with a bucket to pick up their own children and then rush to the finish line, at this time the usually thin children see the advantage, parents pick up and run is not difficult at all. The older sixth grade is to pull the trailer, parents and children exchange groups for competition, tie a long skipping rope around the waist of the child and other people's parents, pull the car in reverse, adults try not to let the child pull, which group of children pull the adults to walk a long distance, which group wins, the onlookers adults, children desperately cheering, shouting, in order to cheer up, people are about to shout out their throats...... Lijiawa Village is as lively as the Chinese New Year.
When it was the turn of the "My Dream" speech contest, many children's dream was to be a teacher, to be a teacher like Principal Yang, his lectures led us into an unknown world, making us confident that we are not worse than the children in the city, some children said that they want to be like Yang Jinghui to return to Lijiawa Village to be a teacher, so that Yang Jinghui was doubly moved, and his eyes were red several times.
