Chinese Traditional Private School Reappears in Zhejiang
Chinese traditional private school reappears in Changle villege, Lanxi, Zhejiang province. It’s opened up on April 26, 2008.
Students in this school are taking courses tatolly different from those they have in the normal public schools.
You can never find text books of mathematics, English or even mordern Chinese in this school. Instead, they are having traditional lessons on The Four Books( The Great Learning, The Doctrine of The Mean, The Analects of The Confucius and The Mencius) and The Five Classics. Besides, courses about Chinese traditional etiquettes and culture are scheduled to better cope with the all-round analysis of ancient articles.
Students in the school have to write with Chinese writing brush pen and roll their heads while doing reading and reciting just like the ancient Chinese students did. Both students and tutors are dressed in ancient garments. While delievering courses, the tutor is goin’ to carried a ferula in his hand, which I think is only to act more like the anciet tutors rather than to give physical punishment to the kids.
