? ——A side note of Tuanjie Primary School improving school running conditions and building a beautiful campus
Time has come to the early summer of 2018, and the brand-new teaching building on the campus has stood tall, and the exterior walls have been renovated. The work is coming to an end, and the red and white ceramic tiles are shining brightly under the bright sunshine, sounding the clarion call to unite the primary school for progress.
However, what does not match this is that the floors and stairs of the new teaching building are still outdated cement surfaces, and supporting facilities such as anti-theft nets, curtains, and fans are still lacking. In particular, the large playground in front of the teaching building has not been hardened, and the phenomenon of "the sky is covered with dust on sunny days and covered with mud on rainy days" still cannot be changed. What's more serious is that on rainy days, the bumpy playground is muddy and difficult to navigate. The ruts left by vehicles are crisscrossed and water accumulates like pools. It is difficult for teachers and students to walk. Children's sports activities can only become a luxury... This Everything, the main leaders of the two committees of the United Village and the school administration saw everything and were anxious in their hearts.
A century-old plan, education is the foundation! The development of the school cannot be delayed! Raise funds from multiple sources and vigorously improve school conditions - this work is imperative! Village school leaders held multiple on-site meetings to discuss solutions. In a meeting, the principal proposed a WeChat crowdfunding method to raise funds from rural sages and social sages to meet urgent needs. This proposal was endorsed by the then village party branch secretary Zeng Jiafu and village committee director Hou Fuzu and other village committee leaders. Actions are worse than excitement. Some started to put up promotional posters, and some took the initiative to contact enthusiastic villagers... Everyone worked hard and made full preparations for the launch of the crowdfunding campaign. What is particularly worth mentioning is that when the two village committees visited Mr. Cai Peizhi of Houshe, Mr. Cai learned that he wanted to raise funds to improve school conditions, so he immediately donated 20,000 yuan, which was the beginning of the fund-raising activity. So, with five hundred for you and one thousand for me, the vigorous fundraising event kicked off smoothly.
On September 3, 2018, the first day of the new school year, the long-awaited teaching building passed the completion acceptance, and more than 400 teachers and students finally moved into the spacious and bright classrooms. The construction of anti-theft nets, curtains, fans and other supporting facilities was completed during the holidays, making the students' learning environment safer and more comfortable. At the same time, on the first day after taking office, the newly elected village party branch secretary and village committee director Hou Fuzu led the two village committees that had just completed the election to the school to inspect the opening of the school on site. The first stop for the new team of the Two Unity Village Committees after taking office was the school, which fully demonstrated the importance and investment of this session of the Village Committees in education. After participating in the flag-raising ceremony at the beginning of the school year, and after inspecting every classroom on site, standing in the corridor in front of the office on the third floor, everyone was silent! Why? Although the teaching building is new, the floor is made of cement after all, which is very easy to get dusty and even pitted. The dusty playground is even more unbearable to look at! The new team members immediately formed a clear understanding: immediately lay ceramic tiles on the floors and stairs of the teaching building, prepare for the reconstruction of the playground and walls, and be sure to green and beautify the campus environment. There is a long way to go to improve the school's running conditions, and the funding gap is very large. Fundraising efforts must continue.
Through collective efforts, the second renovation of the teaching building began amidst the sound of reading on campus. After mobilizing enough workers, making reasonable arrangements, installing one room and moving the other, it only took more than a month of intense construction, and the secondary decoration of the teaching building was basically completed. Today's teaching buildings have spacious and bright classrooms, clean floors, safe and comfortable floors, toilets and drinking fountains on every floor, neatly arranged desks and chairs, and an elegant learning environment. After the facilities of the new teaching building were improved, in order to sublimate the connotation of the campus and form a strong cultural atmosphere, the school immediately launched campus cultural construction activities and tried its best to make every wall speak: the outer walls of the dormitory building and the new teaching building were decorated with The famous aphorisms of "The campus is full of books, virtues accompany growth" and "There is a road to the mountain of books, and diligence is the path, and the sea of ??learning is boundless, and the boat is a boat", "Unite and forge ahead, be civilized and study hard", "Be rigorous and truth-seeking, be brave and innovative". ", "Study diligently, ask questions, be willing to learn and think well" and other school mottos and school spirits also appear on the front facade of the teaching building. Each class teacher based on the actual situation of the class, determined the class cultural education theme, carefully designed and cleverly arranged the class culture, and the childlike innocence was everywhere. There are learning gardens that display students’ talents through methods such as “calligraphy and painting” and “student exercises”; there is a “class evaluation column” that cultivates students’ sense of competition and cooperation in the form of individual or team evaluation; there is a plant corner that is uniquely designed to become a landscape. , this exquisite decoration everywhere reflects the good intentions of the head teacher and the children in class construction. At the same time, it showcases the colorful class culture, creates a warm and happy atmosphere in the classroom, and adds infinite vitality and vitality to the campus.
The smooth progress of the second renovation of the teaching building has doubled everyone’s confidence. As a result, the playground renovation project officially entered the agenda. In order to build a playground with a reasonable layout and complete functions, first of all, the overall topography of the school was surveyed, planned and designed, and accurate floor plans and renderings were formed. During the planning and design process, we tried our best to adapt measures to local conditions, consider the long term, solicit opinions from multiple parties, and change the design draft many times.
From this planning and design, we can see that the school will have a solemn rostrum and flag stand, a table tennis area, a basketball court, a five-a-side football field, a 60-meter track, a garden-style gallery and a planting area. Sports stands and campus sculptures... Many students are amazed when they see this beautiful aerial view of the campus. They often chase their teachers with wide eyes and ask, can our school really become so beautiful? The young and tender faces are full of infinite longing for the beautiful campus.
The fundraising activities are in full swing. New names appear in the fundraising work group almost every day. Every time the funds are received, no matter how much, everyone can’t help but send out a string of messages. "firecracker". Secretary Hou Fuzhu even led the village cadres to go from house to house and talk about fundraising activities with everyone. While completing other tasks, he always told the villagers that the fundraising activities to improve school conditions were still going on. He hoped that every enthusiastic villager would Everyone was able to contribute, and the town government leaders stationed in the village and the principal of the central primary school were also moved and donated charity funds from their salaries.
In order to continue the work of improving school conditions and promote the healthy development of education in Tuanjie Village, Secretary Hou and Principal Su started to prepare for a new task - organizing the re-election of the school board of Tuanjie Primary School. , give full play to the role of the school board of directors, let the school board of directors become a strong backing of the school, in order to promote a new leap forward development of education in Unity Village. On February 7, 2019, the third day of the Lunar New Year, when the whole country celebrated the happy moment of the traditional Lunar New Year, the campus of Tuanjie Primary School was filled with laughter and joy. Tuanjie Village 2019 New Year Symposium and the Fourth School Board Meeting of Tuanjie Primary School The general meeting was held grandly. The meeting was attended by more than 50 people including Kangmei Town Party Committee Propaganda Committee and Deputy Town Mayor Wu Honghai, Kangmei Central Primary School Principal Su Jinliang, members of the two Tuanjie Village committees, Tuanjie Village Xiangxian and some teachers and students from Tuanjie Primary School.
The meeting elected Mr. Cai Shuiping of Heilongjiang Shiji Technology Development Co., Ltd., a rural sage from the back corner of the United Village, as the chairman of the fourth board of directors, and Mr. Huang Quangui, who had served as the main leader of the two village committees, as the executive deputy director. The president elected the old principal Lin Jiansheng who had just retired but always paid attention to the development of the school as the secretary-general, and Comrade Zeng Huagui of the village committee as the financial director. The meeting also hired a number of local sages as consultants, honorary chairman, vice chairman, director. Hou Fuzu, secretary of the Party branch of Tuanjie Village and director of the village committee, issued a letter of appointment to the newly elected Chairman Cai and awarded the school board seal. Subsequently, Chairman Cai delivered a passionate speech. He recalled his childhood days as a student at Tuanjie Primary School, and said that he would live up to expectations and have the courage to take on responsibilities. He would lead all members of the school board to assume the work responsibilities of the school board and work hard to help solve problems. We will continue to improve school-running conditions and do our best to unite primary schools and teachers and students to do good things and do practical things.
The last item on the agenda of the meeting was a symposium with township sages. The atmosphere was warm and inspiring. Everyone spoke enthusiastically and offered suggestions for their hometown and the school, which inspired the enthusiasm of the sages to support the school in improving school running conditions. A strong political consciousness and joint force have been formed. What is particularly touching is that Chairman Cai took the lead in donating an additional 30,000 yuan after already donating 50,000 yuan. Under his leadership, other village sages expressed their opinions one after another: you have 10,000 yuan and I have 5,000 yuan, some new donations and some additional donations. The total number of pledges on that day reached more than 350,000 yuan. Adding the more than 440,000 yuan raised before the Spring Festival, the total amount of funds raised was nearly 800,000 yuan. Since then, fundraising activities have continued, including grants from superiors, and we have raised nearly a million dollars. We believe that the injection of these funds will effectively improve the running conditions of Tuanjie Primary School and create a beautiful learning environment for the students in Tuanjie Village. The education industry in Tuanjie Village will definitely prosper!
After the change of the school board of directors, several key responsible members quickly stepped into their roles. Continue to raise funds and work on-site to promote project construction, and gradually establish an office meeting system with the school taking the lead and the main leaders of the village committee and main members of the school board participating. Whether it is the construction of the project or the acceptance of the project, from cement pouring in the playground to the selection of ceramic tiles for the wall, office meetings are held to make decisions, giving full play to the democratic spirit and collective wisdom. There is no fixed time for office meetings. As long as there is a need, regardless of holidays, everyone expresses their opinions, cooperates with each other, and contributes selflessly. Although Chairman Cai is thousands of miles away from home to start a business, he always pays attention to the development of the school. He often makes suggestions through the WeChat group and encourages everyone to move forward bravely. He rarely returns to his hometown, but he always makes time to visit the school.
Winter vacation is the most favorable period for school construction. The weather is fine in autumn and winter, and students have holidays to ensure safety. We took advantage of this favorable period to renovate the playground. We cleared more than 2,000 cubic meters of earth, built some new retaining walls, built a new rostrum, flag stand, flower beds, stands, drainage ditches, etc., and promptly repaired the main playground. After hardening, the sports ground has undergone earth-shaking changes in just over 20 days of winter vacation, ensuring that after the new semester starts, students will no longer have to walk on muddy roads or be afraid of flying dust when going to school. Perhaps it is God's favor. This spring, there was more rain than in previous years. We also seized this favorable season and started planting trees, greening and beautifying the area. The Quanzhou Forestry Bureau gave away 20 precious tree species such as yew and Huoli Phoebe for free. We also purchased azalea, dragon boat flower, mandarin duck jasmine and other flower seedlings and planted them in the planned flower beds.
In the blink of an eye, the early summer of 2019 has quietly arrived. Now when I step into the campus, the five-star red flag is fluttering in the wind. The newly planted small tree has sprouted new branches and buds. The branches of the phoenix planted in previous years are lush and leafy. From time to time, the crisp chirping of birds can be heard, and the flower beds are filled with blooming flowers. Looking around, children are sometimes arranged in neat formations on the flat playground, sometimes chasing and playing. Various sports activities are in full swing, making campus life more colorful and full of fun. In the classroom with bright and clean windows, the desks and chairs are neatly arranged, and the hard-working teachers lead the students who are thirsty for knowledge to swim in the ocean of knowledge. With the continuous improvement of school running conditions, the school's quality education work has been significantly improved, and the quality of education and teaching has made great progress. Especially during the past semester, many students represented the school in various competitions at all levels and achieved impressive results. One person won the prize in the Quanzhou municipal competition, six won the prize in the Nan'an municipal competition, and more than 40 people won the prize in the Kangmei competition. Winning prizes in town-level competitions.
Time flies, time flies like an arrow! In the past year, under the strong leadership of the two committees of the United Village, with the strong support of the villagers and all walks of life, and with the hard work of the comrades of the school board, the school's campus environment has taken on a completely new look. At this year’s June 1st celebration meeting, Secretary Hou Fuzhu and Vice Chairman Huang Quangui said that they would continue to help and support the development of the school, strive to build Tuanjie Primary School into a first-class modern school in the township, and cultivate more talents for Tuanjie Village. Talents and cultivate more pillars for the motherland. Their speeches were full of affection and sincerity, reflecting their meticulous care and ardent hope for the teachers and students who unite!
Everyone adds firewood and the flames rise! The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard!
——June 20, 2019
(Author’s words: The school infrastructure construction has come to an end for the time being, and the teaching tasks of the graduating class have also ended. The tired body and mind have recovered a little. Relaxation. Looking through the old photos on my phone, I recalled the little work we have done in the past year to improve school conditions, and I decided to record this process through writing.
However, the writing is clumsy and the words cannot convey the meaning, but it is a true record and the expression of my heart! Pay tribute to everyone who has contributed to the development of Unity Elementary School, past and present! )
