In order to get students out of the classroom and experience the beauty of Chinese, we hold Chinese Week activities. Throughout the week, there will be different kinds of Chinese activities, including author sharing, Chinese teacher book sharing, student speaking club, Chinese book exhibition, and literary games. Through these activities, students can experience the rich literary and reading atmosphere from different levels, thus enhancing the reading culture.
Literary Arts Interest Classes
Through regular classes in prose, new poetry, fiction, old songs and new lyrics, and photography, students' sensitivity to language is gradually enhanced, and their personal reflections on life are reflected in words and images. "The program also organizes arts and cultural activities in collaboration with cultural organizations in the community, leading students to reflect on their lives outside of the community and building their lifelong learning capacity to think, explore and innovate.
