For the purpose of feeling the cultural and educational atmosphere of overseas Chinese festivals in Malaysia, Mr Cheng Fei, a teacher from Hebei Normal University, China visited Kuen Cheng High School on the 24th of June 2023 and had a tour of the school compound, along with the “Duan Wu Theme Activity” of students’ Independent Learning Day of Kuen Cheng High School in the form of live broadcast.

The activities commenced with a brief self-introduction of both the teachers, Madam Loh Hoi Yuen, our Admin Head of the Academic Department and Mr Cheng Fei. Both teachers, filled with the spirit of enthusiasm, ushered an estimated number of 900 overseas teachers and students, where they embarked on their journey of exploring the school compound. Later, Madam Loh began introducing the school’s status during the livestream. As she entered the school canteen, Senior Middle Three students were all engaging themselves in the process of wrapping those rice dumplings. Warm smiles and excitement from the students filled the screen of the livestream as they noticed the arrival of Madam Loh and Mr Cheng. Mr Cheng then randomly selected and interviewed a few Senior Middle Three students about their thoughts and feelings on the rice dumpling wrapping event. They also arrived at the other Senior Middle Three classrooms and set eyes on the students that were doing their utmost on creating their scrumptious and unique rice dumplings.
