Teacher’s Day Culture Enters the Campus
 


General Secretary Xi Jinping once quoted the Ming‑dynasty scholar Zhu Zhiyu—“Respecting education and encouraging learning are the fundamental pillars of national development; fostering virtuous talents is the paramount task of governance”—to underscore the vital role of education in the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Teachers shoulder the solemn responsibility of imparting knowledge and cultivating virtue, and throughout history, the Chinese people have cherished a special regard for the teaching profession. On September 8, to uphold the fine tradition of respecting teachers and valuing education, and to carry forward China’s outstanding cultural heritage, the Tang Xianzu Memorial Hall, the Municipal Museum, and the Wang Anshi Memorial Hall of Fuzhou City joined forces with the Fourth Experimental School of Linchuan District to launch a themed campus‑based cultural event for Teacher’s Day, titled “Cultivating Virtue and Nurturing Talent: Fulfilling Our Mission, Forging Souls and Nurturing New People.”

Fun Classroom

01

Tang Xianzu Memorial Hall: Intangible Cultural Heritage of Traditional Opera – Cloisonné Hair Ornaments Workshop

 
 

  
 


 

The docent began by explaining the classification of opera roles and the headpieces worn by female characters, then moved on to the art of kingfisher‑feather inlay—its origins and its transmission—progressing step by step. The students listened with great interest, and when they saw the images on the screen, they were all struck by the exquisite beauty of the kingfisher‑feather ornaments. Afterwards, staff members handed out tools, allowing the students to personally experience the hands‑on creation of a small, traditional kingfisher‑feather hairpin. This special activity not only let the students directly appreciate the unique charm of opera culture but also enabled them, on the eve of Teacher’s Day, to present their teachers with one‑of‑a‑kind handmade gifts as a token of gratitude. The entire class was lively and engaging; at the end, the students lingered, reluctant to leave. The homeroom teacher remarked that such heritage‑focused courses are highly educational and expressed hope for continued collaboration.
