Chapter 642 Campus Farm: This is more than just a vivid practical lesson
"Hi, everyone. We are currently at a very interesting place in Suyang Charity School. This is the campus farm..."
Inside the live broadcast room, the reporter stood at the entrance of the campus farm and gave everyone a detailed introduction. However, the people in the live broadcast room were very curious because they had never heard of the campus farm before. Today was the first time they heard about it.
"Next to the Suyang Charity School, there's a farm covering an area of 2,000 mu. It's called the Campus Farm because much of the work on the farm is done by the children of the Suyang Charity School. Inside the Suyang Charity School, starting from elementary school, the children have an hour of social practice course every day..."
Following the camera, everyone saw the true face of the farm. The entire large farm is divided into many areas, both indoors and outdoors.
Outside, plots of farmland were neatly separated, and various crops were grown in these fields, most of which were vegetables.
Looking at the farmland, there are actually many students busy working there.
"Hello classmates, what are you doing?"
The host walked directly to a student and asked curiously.
"We are helping to weed this field. This is our social practice class today..."
The student looked up and smiled, holding a lot of freshly pulled grass in his hand.
“Is this your first time doing this kind of social practice class?”
The host asked curiously.
"No, we started during the winter vacation. Our class contracted this piece of land, which is five acres. We planted Chinese cabbage here, and we planted it ourselves..."
The child smiled and said that through the child's introduction, the audience in the live broadcast room knew the truth of the matter.
It turns out that this vegetable garden was contracted by this class. This piece of land is now owned by this class, and these children are responsible for tilling the land, planting, and weeding.
During this process, teachers will guide them, teaching them the techniques of growing vegetables and imparting some other knowledge.
Learning knowledge through practice and making children feel useful at the same time is a very novel educational method.
Five acres of land isn't small, but for the children in this class, it's nothing. After all, there are quite a few children in the class, and as long as everyone works together, everything can be done quickly.
"These vegetables are all organic, without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. The children are also practicing their own value on this land. In fact, it's not just about weeding. They also need to learn how to plow the land, catch insects, and even dig manure..."
The teacher introduced it, and along with the camera, the audience in the live broadcast room really saw the students digging manure.
Both boys and girls participated in the activity. The children wore masks and took out the fermented feces from the manure pit. They then mixed it with sawdust, dry leaves and other things and piled it together.
Finally, use a dung fork to pile the mixed farm manure together for fermentation again.
"Fuck, they're really digging shit..."
“That’s fucking awesome…”
“This is a live broadcast with flavor…”
"Not bad, not bad. It's better to let the child experience some things..."
"I want to send my daughter in. Can I pay to get in? I can even donate some money. My daughter has been spoiled since she was a child, and I want her to experience life..."
"Okay, okay, other schools can learn from this kind of practical class..."
The livestream went viral. This kind of social practice class is so meaningful. It teaches children so much. Simply put, if you've been in this school since childhood, by the time you graduate, even if you don't know anything else, you'll definitely be an expert in planting. Because they're constantly learning through practice.
Just like students at an agricultural university, you will not only learn how to plant crops, but also be taught some professional knowledge, including how to prevent pests and diseases, how to plant crops, and how to get high yields.
There's not only a farm but also a pasture, housing a wide variety of animals. There are pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese, and even dairy cows. Many parents watching the livestream couldn't help but sigh in admiration as they watched the children expertly mix feed for the cows, build pens, wash the cows, and meticulously care for the calves.
They were envious, really envious of such a campus farm. Look at the children's skillful movements, look at their tired but smiling faces.
Looking at my own children, many of them do nothing but play with their phones. Forget about social practice, many of them haven't even washed their own clothes or socks.
In contrast, many parents fell silent.
If a child from Suyang Charity School competes with your own child for the same position, will your own child be able to win?
If we exclude factors such as relationships and connections, and just focus on hard work and perseverance, there is absolutely no way that my own children can compete with these children.
This is a vivid social practice class, but few schools have the conditions to provide it.
Through the lens, the busy figures of the children make the campus farm full of vitality.
Looking at these children and the various vegetables and poultry on the farm, I realized that they, like the children in this school, will grow up with time.
School has started. Like countless other schools, Suyang Charity School has finally opened. This school has also attracted the attention of countless people.
Everyone is concerned about the future achievements of these children and what they can gain in this school.
No one is worried about the school's expenses right now. After all, Qingyao Group's ability to make money is too wild.
The profits from a recent TV series called "Game of Thrones" could easily support this school for decades. With Su Yang's current wealth, supporting this school wasn't too much of a burden.
After the start of the school season, Su Yang became busy again.
At the headquarters of Qingyao Group, Su Yang, Tang Qing and Qin Shuyao are holding a negotiation meeting with people from the design department.
A huge map was spread out with many lines drawn on it.
"Mr. Tang, Mr. Su, look, this place is about five kilometers from our headquarters. This stretch of beach is currently undeveloped and undeveloped. But as long as the funds are in place, we can develop it. Our water park can be built right on the beach, and some projects can even be built directly in the sea..."
The designer drew a circle on the map, marking the location of the water park. Su Yang nodded at this location. Building a water park near the sea was a good idea. This would allow the project to be expanded. However, when investing in the project, more considerations were needed.
Safety, environmental protection, sustainability, etc. all need to be considered. However, these are not a problem. As long as the money is in place, everything will be fine.
