One meaningful thing ive learnt today is the amount of technology the school has. For example, they used meal cards which is like a debit card with allowance to purchase food and does not use cash. This shows how they have been advancing in technology and is not like how people think as a very rural country. This also changes my perspective as I always thought of china being less technologically advanced.

A meaningful thing I learnt from my experience today is that all schools in China have a huge rock with a meaningful quote or phrase engraved on it. This is meaningful as students who feel down can look at the words and feel better and more encouraged. This changes my perspective that schools in China are quite boring.

今天的经历让我学到一件很有意义的事情：中国所有的学校都有一块巨大的石头，上面刻着一句意义非凡的名言或短语。这很有意义，因为情绪低落的学生可以看看这些文字，心情会好起来，受到鼓励。这改变了我对中国学校很无聊的看法。

Something meaningful I learnt is their dedication their studies and how passionate they are about what they are learning in their school. This reformed my views on how and how much studies is part of a students nature. This is in a way that we should have greater concern over what we are learning and seek to constantly improve in order to not lag behind others not just for others but also for ourselves

I learnt to be grateful that in Singapore, our schools do not end as late as my China buddies. Before complaining, we should be grateful and be thankful as others might have things worse off than us.

我学会了感恩，在新加坡，我们的学校不像我在中国的朋友们那样放学那么晚。在抱怨之前，我们应该心怀感激，因为其他人的处境可能比我们更艰难。我们应该庆幸自己不需要像他们那样学习到那么晚，并且我们还有机会在新加坡学习。

我学会了感恩，因为农场的这段经历让我感受到农民为我们生产蔬菜和喂养动物所付出的辛勤劳动。

the Chinese school uses farming to teach value, unlike singapore which uses CCE lessons. they use hands on activities such as harvesting crops and feeding animals to teach values such as responsibility.

南京学校通过农业来教授价值观，而新加坡则使用德育课。他们使用收割庄稼和喂养动物的活动来教授责任的价值观。

i learnt about the hardwork of farmers as it is not easy to harvest potatos. it was tiring to squat for a long time but it was an enjoyable experience. i also learnt how soymilk is made. china allowed me to experience a lot of things that i have never tried in singapore

我了解到农民的辛劳，因为收获土豆并不容易。长时间蹲着很累，但这是一次愉快的经历。我还了解了豆浆的制作方法。在中国，我体验到了很多在新加坡从未尝试过的事情。

Some similar methods is that there is both theory and physical lessons that give us more insights into what we are doing and why. Some different methods is that the activities tie very heavily to their heritage and culture. Every briefing and debriefing session has a short section where they relate the activity back to the roots of Chinese culture. There is also an heavy emphasis on etiquette and methods especially for tea ceremony. Every step has a specific reason to achieve the best taste of tea. For the farming lesson, the instructor explained about the tools and equipment that farmers used. With the physical reason also came the meaning and reason of why we are experiencing this and why they still have such lessons. This is to instill and ingrain a sense of responsibility, reverence and sort of deference to our forebears who worked the land and built the nation. They hope to see how we integrate such values into our everyday lives. The farming instructor also emphasised multiple times how he wished that we would be a citizen of both Nanjing and Singapore so as to project unity.

# data[].attributes.body
I learnt that students in Nanjing take part in labour courses such as helping at the school farm to help them build values. This is different from our school as we don’t need to do labour courses but instead we build values using other ways

我发现南京的学生们都会参加劳动课程，比如在学校农场帮忙来帮助他们建立价值观。这和我们学校不同，因为我们不需要参加劳动课程，而是通过其他方式来建立价值观。

For Yesterday's lesson, i learnt to appreciate tea and its history, something singapore doesnt really do as most of Singapore's tea is in packets. For pottery class, i learnt to use clay and make it into sculptures. For the observation of night time class, i saw how students are having lessons at night, i feel that we are quite fortunate to not have night classes as some of us get tired. But at the same time, i feel it is very productive to get the job done.

For today's class, i went to a farm to harvest yam and feed some animals. The feeding of animals is a pleasant experience and for the harvesting of vegetables, i learnt that it is hard work and the farmers work tirelessly to ensure that we have food on our plates, it also taught me not to waste food as their hard work will be gone to waste.

在昨天的课上，我学会了欣赏茶和它的历史，而新加坡在这方面做得并不好，因为新加坡的茶叶大多是袋装的。在陶艺课上，我学会了用粘土制作雕塑。在夜校观摩课上，我观察了学生们是如何上夜课的。我觉得我们很幸运没有夜校，因为有些人会很累。但同时，我觉得完成这些工作非常有成效。 今天的课上，我去了农场采摘山药并喂养一些动物。喂养动物是一次愉快的经历。在采摘蔬菜的过程中，我了解到这是一项艰苦的工作，农民们不知疲倦地工作，以确保我们餐盘里有食物。这也教会了我不要浪费食物，因为他们的辛勤劳动将会被浪费掉。

# data[].attributes.body
something different i have learnt is that they have to work hard to harvest their own food and while us in singapore, we get spoon fed as the food is readily available for us. i felt that we have grown well together as a group while we help each other.

我学到的不一样的东西是，他们必须努力工作才能收获自己的食物，但我们在新加坡时，我们的食物随时可供我们使用。我觉得我们作为一个团队一起成长得很好，我们互相帮助。

Drinking tea teaches me to respect, create new friends and share. Learning about night study helps students accept feedback which shows that they are willing to learn. When digging the sweet potatoes i realised how fortunate i was to be able to just buy things without knowing the hardships of the farmers and how tiring it is to plant corps to sell

喝茶教会我尊重他人、结交新朋友和分享。学习夜读有助于学生接受反馈，这表明他们愿意学习。挖红薯的时候，我意识到自己是多么幸运，能够直接买东西，而不必了解农民的艰辛，也不必知道种植红薯卖出去有多累。

# data[].attributes.body
differences:

After seeing what night school are like, i noticed that students are willing to study and focus in the lesson despite having lessons late at night. there were no sounds of complaints, let alone any secretive chatter amongst students. i think this is a good example for us to learn to respond to our surroundings appropriately like in lesson time, and learn to not fuss over small things like having remedial after school.

看到了夜校后，我发现学生虽然需要时间晚还上课，但他们还很愿意学习，又专心上课。课堂上没有抱怨的声音，更没有学生之间闲聊。我认为这个是个好榜样，让我们学会像上课一样适当地应对周围的环境，并且学会不要为课后补习的小事而烦恼。

similarity:

both schools have outside-class activities to expose students to experiences that cannot be learnt in the classroom. for Singapore, we have activities like "learning beyond classroom" while for China, they have activities like the labour course on the school farm, where we fed the animals and dug out sweet potatoes.

两所学校都有课外活动，让学生接触课堂上学不到的经验。新加坡有“课外学习”等活动，而中国有学校小农场劳动实践活动，我们在那里喂养动物、挖红薯。

# data[].attributes.body
I learnt about gratitude and that we should be grateful for what we have right now. As farmers have to wake up every morning and work until the night while all we have to do is study from the morning till the afternoon. Yet we still complain but the farmers never complain at all. So after doing farmwork, we were very tired and learnt to appreciate our current life as students.

我学会了感恩，懂得了我们应该珍惜眼前的一切。农民每天早起，干活到深夜，而我们却要从早到晚学习。然而，我们依然抱怨，农民却从不抱怨。所以，干完农活，我们虽然很累，但学会了珍惜现在的学生生活。

# data[].attributes.body

At noon, we experienced “farm life” by digging up taros and feeding animals. It was an enjoyable activity where I learned through hands-on experience instead of classroom learning. Through this, I realised that physically trying things out helps me understand better and make the experience more fun. This is quite different from our usual learning methods in school, where we mostly listen to teachers’ explanations and follow instructions. However, both methods involve paying attention to guidance and applying what we have learned in reality.

中午时，我们体验了“农家乐”，亲自挖芋头和喂动物。这次活动让我通过亲自实践的方式学习，而不是在课堂上听课。我发现，除了讲解，亲自动手的体验能让我进一步了解老师所说的感恩与担当。这与我们平时在学校主要通过听老师讲解、跟随指示学习的方式不同。不过，两种学习方式也有相似之处，那就是都需要专心听取指导，并将所学到的知识应用到现实中。

I can apply our school's value of caring from this experience. When my friend felt sick, I offered to help him buy some food and carry his bag. I also kept a lookout for my group mates so that nobody would get left behind.

I have learnt perseverance and determination when harvesting the sweet potatoes. We had to dig for food and harvest them in the school farm. There were many bugs and worms in the soil and many of us were scared of them. However, we did not give up and continued digging for the food. This also teaches me to appreciate food better as it is difficult to find them.

我学会了我们应该要坚持。我们早上在学校的农场里挖食物。泥土里有很多虫子，我们很多人都很害怕它们，但我们没有放弃，继续挖食物。这也让我更加感激食物因为它们很难挖得到。

one thing i’ve learnt from todays labour course was to appreciate every grain of rice as they each one comes from hardwork. even in cool weather i was struggling and sweating and i cannot imagine how much effort the farmers put in all year round just to plant and harvest food for us. i hope to be as hardworking as these farmers so i can put this skill to use to achieve greater things and do things with ease. i also got to learn how to harvest and feed animals, which gives me a better insight and experience to learn compared to textbooks

今天学到的一个东西是要珍惜每粒米，粒粒皆辛苦。虽然在南京的天气下，我还是流汗和遇到困难。我正的事想不到这些农民每天有多累和付出多少的力。我希望我可以和这些农民们一样努力这样我可以争取目标和更容易完成事情。我也学到怎么把土豆和味动物，这个体验比看课本更丰富和有期

An value is discipline which part of being a caring, confident and disciplined person that Ms Ong emphasized many times. My teachers have reprimanded me for not following instructions. This has taught me to behave myself. During the flight, another value is caring. The people sitting beside me when I was napping were keeping quiet. During dinner, each guy at the diner table showed concern for each other by shopping food for those beside them. They showed the school values very well.

when we learnt about the 24 solar terms of China, i was surprised as I, as well as other Singaporeans, probably only know about the main 4 seasons as we dont get to experience it as Singaporeans. after this lesson, i learnt that in each season there are many stages, and each stage there are traditional dishes/foods that people in China eat. this changed my perspective of China as they have other smart methods to determine and celebrate specific times of the year.

当我们学到了24节气，我很惊讶，因为我和其他新加坡人一样，可能只知道主要的四个季节，因为我们作为新加坡人没有经历过。经过这节课，我了解到每个季节都有许多阶段，每个阶段都有中国人吃的传统食物。这改变了我对中国的看法，因为他们有其他聪明的方法来仔细正确和庆祝一年中的具体时间。

a cultural highlight that stood out to me was the Tai Chi, Tai Chi is based on the concept of "Tai Chi" in the Book of Changes, integrating the theories of yin and yang and the five elements, emphasizing the ideas of "unity of heaven and man" The uniqueness of Tai Chi lies in its integration of traditional Chinese philosophy, martial arts, medicine, and health preservation, forming a complete system of physical and mental cultivation.

太极拳以《周易》的“太极”概念为理论基础，融合阴阳五行学说，强调“天人合一”“动静互依”的哲学思想。太极拳的独特性源于其融合了中国传统哲学、武术、医学和养生学等多个领域，形成了一套完整的身心修炼体系。

# data[].attributes.body
I think Taichi is a very unique martial art as it is not like a normal martial art like Judo, Brazilian Ju Jitsu where it is very rough and forceful,but it is allows us to look in another perspective of things, a more relaxed and peaceful way of dealing with things, the strokes conducted although slow, but impactful to us as it allows us to not be so rash when dealing with things.

我认为太极拳是一种非常独特的武术，因为它不像柔道、巴西柔术等普通武术那样粗暴有力，而是让我们从另一个角度看待事物，以一种更轻松、更平和的方式处理事情，虽然动作缓慢，但对我们很有影响力，因为它让我们在处理事情时不那么鲁莽。

A cultural highlight that attracted me is the physical lesson of wushu and taiji. The instructor emphasised speed and voice projection for wushu and accuracy and steadyness for taiji. These are key to performing the steps accurately. They will influence others view of China in a positive way in such that it enhances the Chinese peoples grace and heritage so as to better appreciate the activity and it's meaning. The morning lesson was a introduction to the lessons passed down from generation of Chinese to generation of Chinese, their virtue and a testament to their ingenuity for creating such things.

i learnt to be patient and not to rush things if i want a good outcome. for calligraphy, instead of immediately trying to write a word, i learnt patience by slowly learning the foundation to writing good calligraphy. for the traditional painting, i learnt patience by waiting for step by step instructions to prevent any mistakes and errors in the outcome. i can apply this in my learning to learn to take things easy and learn before i do something instead of being complacent and overconfident in my work.
