Chinese Language Day Celebrations on Campus
April 20, the birthday of Chinese characters’ creator Cang Jie, witnessed the great success of our school’s first ever Chinese Language Day Celebrations.
On that day, more than 20 events were organized around the campus, offering the fullest experience of the beauty of our mother tongue. Among those most popular events were live Chinese Calligraphy show from our teachers, and the paper-cutting contest, with participants demonstrating delicately designed patterns of Chinese idioms. What won the most applause was the contest of tongue twisters, attracting visiting foreign students to showcase their wonderful oral Chinese.
The celebrations have had a positive effect on every participant. “Chinese language is so beautiful and interesting, I’ll definitely carry on my study into it,” one visiting student from France told the reporter.

Jordan’s eyes fell on the box and he smiled, “It’s perfect…with my wheelchair.” Seeing the puzzled look on his mum’s face, Jordan quickly told her the design of his new costume — MaxMag on his car. She smiled and gave him a thumbs up. “No time to wait! Let’s get started!” exclaimed his dad who just went in. For two nights, they cut, pasted, folded and unfolded the box; they drew on it and colored it to make it look like a real car; and they glued the old MaxMag costume onto it. When the new costume was finally ready, Jordan tried it on several times and continued to make necessary changes until satisfied.
Soon it was Friday night, and Jordan couldn’t wait to show his costume to his friends. When he wheeled himself into the party, he immediately spotted the three MaxMags. When they saw him, they couldn’t believe it. “The MaxMag and his car? That’s awesome!” Danny’s eyes lit up. “The wheels of your chair are just perfect!” said Tom. “You even have the headlights! It’s so cool.” Izzy pointed to the front. Jordan beamed. “Thanks!” When it was time to announce the winner, Jordan joined his friends by the stage. “The winner of this year’s Harvestfest costume contest is ...”, the principal paused to read the name off the card, “Jordan Eastman!” Everyone clapped. “See? You just needed to be creative!” Alice said. “You mean think outside the box!” Jordan patted on the flaming-red car attached to his chair, with an iconic MaxMag smile.

Jordan’s eyes fell on the box and he smiled, “It’s perfect … with my wheelchair.” Realizing Mom was confused, he quickly added, “That’s a cool desk, Mum. But can I have the big box for the Harvestfest contest?” He then explained excitedly how to turn it into a mobile refrigerator. “Brilliant! You will definitely be the superhero of the party, serving people their favourite drinks,” Mum exclaimed with a broad smile. In the following days, his priority after school was designing and making the new costume, fixing it to his wheelchair and exquisitely making a door. Finally, he even prepared some soft drinks to surprise his friends.
Soon it was Friday night, and Jordan couldn’t wait to show his costume to his friends. When he wheeled himself in as a mobile refrigerator, he heard admiring exclamations, guessing about who it would be. Jordan felt an increasing sense of pride and satisfaction. When he spotted a chocolate bar, he quickly moved towards it, stopped just several inches in front and quickly opened the door. “Jordan, it’s you!” Alice cried out. Jordan passed her her favourite drink. “Thank you, Alice. That’s an idea outside the box.” That night, although he didn’t win the best costume award from the principal, Jordan felt like the real MaxMag: his body and soul were no longer confined to the wheelchair. And he came to realize: there is hidden potential in everyday items, and so it is with every individual.
