The moon is a symbol of hometown memories in China, and a full moon carries the thoughts of people to their beloved families. The Mid-Autumn Festival offers Chinese people an opportunity to reunite with their family members and appreciate the moon together.
When we look up at the bright moon, our thoughts may wander with Chang’e and the Jade Rabbit in their wonderful legends, enjoying the wisdom of the sages. We may travel to Tang Dynasty and have a drink with Li Bai, experiencing the romance of "wine among the flowers"; We may also leave for Song Dynasty and have a chat with Su Shi, toasting to the bright full moon.
The seeds of "Chinese Origins" are taking root in the minds of every OCAC student. The students made arranged attractive board decorations to welcome the arrival of the traditional Chinese festival.
Immersed in the atmosphere of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the students of OCAC High School made mooncakes which symbolized the reunion of family. During the activity, students felt the warmth of the OCAC family and developed further understanding of traditional Chinese culture.
Under the guidance of the mooncake-baking master, the students proved to be bold acquaintances.
The students took pictures and sent blessings to each other in laughter, singing happily together…
The joyful atmosphere of the scene rose high, and there were many surprises...
The fifteenth day of the eighth month in the lunar calendar this year coincides with September 10, which means that the Mid-Autumn Festival should encounter Teacher's Day this year. Such coincidence would only happen once in 19 years, making it lovely and valuable. OCAC students thanked their teachers with the mooncakes, showing gratitude to the teachers for their hard work and patience.
Immersed in traditional culture and under the care of love, OCAC students shall release the vitality of youth and enhance originality!
