School Events丨蛇么都有!请查收你的FLIS独家年味
又是一年春来到。2025年的春节比往年来得要早一些,寒假前最后一周,福州西湖国际学校学子也用各种各样的方式,提前为即将到来的节日添上了几分“年味”。
The Spring Festival of 2025 came a little earlier than in previous years, and in the last week before the winter holiday, the students of the Fuzhou Lakeside International School used a variety of ways to add some “Spring Festival Atmosphere” to the upcoming holiday.
剪窗花、做香囊、拓印福卡……这些祈福纳祥的手工艺品不仅烘托了节日氛围,也饱含学子对新年健康、平安、顺遂的期盼。
Creating window paper-cuttings, making scented sachets, and constructing blessing cards were just some of the things students put together. These handicrafts for praying for good luck and good fortune not only set a festive atmosphere, but also contained the students' expectations for a healthy, safe and prosperous New Year.
说到“年味”,美食自然是不得不提的一环。对不少人而言,除夕包饺子是传统、是隆重的春节习俗、是美好的童年回忆……在餐厅和同学、老师一起包过饺子,就算FLIS大家庭一起过了春节啦。在这辞旧迎新的时刻,希望有“更岁交子”之意的饺子能给大家都带来一年好运!
When it comes to the “Spring Festival Atmosphere”, food is naturally one of the things that must be mentioned. For many people, making dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve is a tradition, a grand custom, and a fond childhood memory. If you have made dumplings in the cafeteria with your classmates and teachers, you are considered to have celebrated the Chinese New Year with the FLIS family. At this time of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming in the new, we hope that the dumplings, which are meant to bring good luck for the year, will bring good luck to everyone!
2025年在生肖上为蛇年,FLIS特地准备了团体贪吃蛇游戏,学子与队友组成蛇头、蛇身、蛇尾齐头并进,协作共赢。
As 2025 is the Year of the Snake in the Chinese Zodiac, FLIS has specially prepared a group snake game, where students and their teammates form the head of the snake, the body of the snake, and the tail of the snake in unison to work together and win.
今年新春活动最精彩的重头戏当数舞狮表演。古人认为狮子是菩萨的坐骑,乃辟邪去恶之灵兽,因此逢年过节、喜庆之时,人们都喜欢敲锣打鼓舞狮助兴,以求得神明庇佑。这种中国民间传统表演艺术也随着前往海外的华人在全球传播,从而闻名世界。本周五,FLIS特邀专业的舞狮团队,既令学子感受传统艺术的魅力、学习中华文化,也为即将到来的春节讨个好彩头!
The highlight of this year's Chinese New Year activities is the lion dance. Ancient people believed that the lion is the mount of the Bodhisattva, and it is a spiritual animal that wards off evil spirits, so during festivals and celebrations, people like to beat the gongs and drums and perform lion dances in order to seek the blessings of the gods. This traditional Chinese folk performing art has also spread globally with the Chinese who traveled overseas and has become famous worldwide. This Friday, FLIS invited a professional lion dance team to let students experience the charm of traditional art, learn about Chinese culture, and get good luck for the upcoming Chinese New Year!
这是FLIS大家庭携手走过的又一年。感谢各位教职工及学子平日在校努力耕耘,也感谢家长们一直以来的鼎力支持。在此提前祝全体FLIS师生春节快乐,百福俱臻!希望接下来也是很棒的一年!
The FLIS family has been working together for another year. We would like to thank all the staff and students for their hard work and dedication, as well as the parents for their continued support. We wish all FLIS family members a happy and prosperous Chinese New Year! Hope we all have a very good year!
