From August 6th to 13th, CIAQU held a Chinese cultural experience activity for more than 150 Palestinian primary and secondary school students from the comprehensive education summer camp.
The Chinese cultural experience activities include watching the "Hello! China" short film, speaking Chinese, writing brush calligraphy, painting Peking Opera masks, picking up beans with chopsticks, wearing Hanfu, paper-cutting, and kicking Jianzi. The activity has won unanimous praise from the students, and many of them are reluctant to leave. The teacher in charge of the summer camp said: "The Chinese cultural experience activity has left Palestinian children with a beautiful and unforgettable impression of Chinese culture and ignited their enthusiasm for Chinese culture."
The comprehensive education summer camp is initiated by the Palestinian Ministry of Education and has been held for many years. This is the second time that the Confucius Institute at Al Quds University has hosted the Chinese cultural experience activity of the comprehensive education summer camp.
