元宵节，是中华民族最富有诗意的节日之一。元宵节的月色和灯火，辉映着想象与浪漫。在这佳节之际，青浦协和的孩子们穿起传统服饰，吃汤圆、猜灯谜，欢庆元宵。
The Lantern Festival is the most poetic festival in China. Even the moonlight and lights on the Lantern Festival day reflect poetry and romance. With the arrival of the traditional Chinese Festival Lantern Festival, our students in SUIS Qingpu were celebrating the festival, wearing traditional clothes, eating dumplings and guessing lantern riddles.

小学生的课堂中，孩子们认真编写谜语。看！一条条精心准备的谜语有的被“藏”在孩子们手工制作的灯笼里，有的“躲”在不同形状的彩色图案间……古琴曲悠扬响起，孩子们和着乐声，声情并茂地朗诵《十五夜观灯》、《青玉案元夕》、《上元竹枝词》等经典作品。诵读古诗词的过程中，渐渐体悟元宵节的氛围与意义。
In primary class, children were writing their own riddles. Look! Some of the carefully prepared riddles were “hidden” in children’s handmade lanterns, while others were “hidden” among colorful patterns of different shapes. The music of Guqin is melodious, and the children in traditional costumes recited classical poems such as “Watching Lanterns on the 15th Night”, “New Year’s Eve of Qingyu Case” and “Lantern Festival Zhuzhi Ci”. In the process of reading and appreciating ancient poems, children gradually realized the poetic and romantic spirit of the Lantern Festival.
丰富的灯谜 Lantern Riddles
“六七42”！是初中部孩子们的庆祝方式。高年级学子将寒假德育作业中的“四史”灯谜和自制元宵灯布置在走廊，并邀请学弟学妹一同学习“四史”，评选出“最华丽灯笼”和“最环保灯笼”，流连忘返，兴趣盎然。
In middle school department, higher grade students decorated the corridor by “Four History” riddles and colourful handmade lanterns. They invited younger students to select “the most beautiful lanterns” and “the most environmental friendly lanterns” together.
活动的最后，孩子们吃到了又香又甜的汤圆，寓意甜甜蜜蜜，团团圆圆，事事如意。
At the end of the activity, the students ate delicious dumplings, which means sweetness, reunion and all is well.
愿青浦协和的学子们，在红红火火的牛年，拥有冲天的牛气，成为更牛的自己！
We hope that the children can have strong spirits and become more powerful in the year of the OX!
