This event profoundly demonstrated the excellent cohesion and execution of the Friends of Harrow. In just two days, we went from determining the theme of “A Bite of China” to the selection of cuisines for each class, efficiently and orderly. This was not only a feast of taste, but also a display of deep cultural exchange and home-school cooperation, making the children more understand and cherish the value of multiculturalism. This experience made me more convinced that as parents, we are not only the enlightening teachers of our children, but also the valuable partners of the school.
I would like to quote a line from Lu You’s poem Eating Beans in a Small Garden: “At the beginning of February, the cardamom sprouts, the spring breeze for ten miles is not as good as you.”, to express our deep appreciation for the Chinese cuisine. Just like the cardamom that sprouts in the spring, our event not only showed the delicacy and diversity of the food, but also a feast of culture and emotion. This experience made us deeply feel that whether it is the spring breeze blowing over ten miles, or the food presented in front of us, they are not as good as the beauty and warmth that we created together.
