In order to broaden students' horizons and enhance their practical skills, MIS has been actively connecting with high-quality external resources to enrich students' lives. Recently, 11 MIS students from Year 4 to Year 6 embarked on an enlightening Chinese cultural journey. This trip was not only an exploration of history and art but also a profound experience for their minds and spirits.

The flag-raising ceremony is a solemn form of expressing respect and love for the country. At 8:00 AM, over 5,000 people gathered on the playground of the Longhua District Foreign Language School Education Group campus. The ceremony, rich in form and meaning, served as a heartfelt tribute to the motherland and a demonstration of understanding Chinese culture. Through observation, participation, and experience, MIS students gained a deeper understanding of Chinese national spirit and values, enhancing their sense of cultural identity.

During the “Belt and Road” Model United Nations Conference, MIS students, alongside peers from Longhua District Foreign Language School Education Group and Bocan Foreign Language School, focused on global issues. They simulated international cooperation between China, the United States, and India in addressing climate change, offering youthful solutions and wisdom for global governance.

Chinese characters are a crucial carrier of Chinese culture. In the Chinese character culture class, students listened to stories from calligraphers and immersed themselves in the strokes of Chinese characters. They learned about the development history of Chinese characters, the cultural stories behind them, and the values and thinking patterns of Chinese people, experiencing the essence and charm of Chinese culture.

MIS students also visited the Redwood Furniture Museum in Guanlan, participating in a mobile political science class. Starting from “observation” and experiencing through “doing,” they appreciated and understood the culture, history, and craftsmanship of traditional Chinese wooden furniture. Through activities such as listening to explanations and hands-on making of wooden stools, they marveled at the ingenious mortise and tenon craftsmanship and the extraordinary wisdom of ancient Chinese artisans.
