Chinese Culture Week
From 23 to 27 May, the Chinese Culture Week was held with the theme of “Art and Virtue”. A variety of activities were organised for students, such as lantern-making and paper-cutting workshops where students had fun making traditional crafts; calligraphy workshop in which participants learnt about different fonts and to write their surname in small seal script; Putonghua workshop that challenged students to read tongue twisters and translate between Cantonese and Putonghua vocabulary; “Courtesy in True Light” booth in which students recited famous Chinese proverbs in the newly published “True Light Courtesy Manual” in exchange for exquisite postcards; and last but not least, a cookery workshop where students made cute tiger-shaped sweet dumplings (tangyuan). In addition to enhancing students’ knowledge of Chinese culture, these activities combined learning with fun and cultivated students’ moral character.
