During the summer vacation, a local community in Chengyang district, Qingdao, has launched a vibrant cultural activity program.

The summer camp features a special class on Chinese literary classics where children, guided by university student volunteers, dive into the epic novel Journey to the West. Through in-depth discussions about iconic characters and exciting plotlines, the young learners explore such themes as perseverance and resilience in the face of hardship.

The program aims to help children better understand life's challenges while fostering a deeper appreciation for traditional Chinese culture. The engaging sessions not only enrich the students' holiday experience but also strengthen their cultural confidence, making it a meaningful and memorable summer activity.
