On the afternoon of July 22, 20 teachers and students from Xiushui, Jiangxi and Hope Primary School of Shanghai Retired Military Cadres in Jinzhai, Anhui Province, together with representatives of retired military cadres, staff of the Municipal Military Retirement Center, and young volunteers, gathered together to express their feelings and blessings for the love relay of the two Hope Primary Schools given by the Retired Military Cadres of Shanghai for 18 years in the form of singing and dancing.
"After constantly climbing over countless mountains, after overcoming disappointments again and again, you will eventually climb to the top of such a mountain, and on the other side of this mountain, there is the sea..." Cao Hangbin of Jiangxi Xiushui, Wang Menghan of Jinzhai in Anhui Province, and Wan Lina of the Municipal Military Retirement Center recited "On the Other Side of the Mountain" with great emotion at the closing ceremony. Although it is the first time to come to Shanghai, these two children have already formed an indissoluble relationship with the Shanghai military retirees. As early as 2010 and 2013, Cao Hangbin's brother Cao Yuhang and Wang Menghan's sister Wang Mengyuan came to Shanghai to participate in the summer camp activities respectively, and they were deeply impressed by the deep messages and red stories told by the grandparents of the retired military cadres, the warm care of the retired military workers and the urban charm of Shanghai. The selfless and broad love of the Shanghai Junxiu people condensed into red "seeds" that took root and sprouted in the hearts of Cao Yuhang and Wang Mengyuan. After unremitting efforts and hard work, cao Yuhang has grown into an outstanding armed police special operator, and Wang Mengyuan has become a college student in the new era. Under the influence of his brother, the young Cao Hangbin also admired the soldiers and longed for the military camp. After Sharing his learning experience on the Bayi stage of shanghai's military retirement system, Wang Mengyuan fell in love with the speech. Her younger sister Wang Menghan is also working hard to become a "little speaker".
Before the start of this year's summer camp, Cao Yuhang learned on the phone with his father that his brother would also go to Shanghai to participate in the summer camp, which instantly evoked a good memory of the summer camp; Wang Mengyuan also saw Wan Lina's contact information on his sister's badge on the trip, and excitedly re-established contact with this amiable big sister... In order to pass on the red "baton", they specially filmed a video to encourage their younger brothers and sisters to bear in mind the entrustment of their grandparents and grandparents of retired military cadres, inherit the revolutionary torch, establish lofty ideals, study diligently and diligently, and contribute their strength to the realization of the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
Upon hearing that the children from the two places had once again come to Shanghai to participate in the summer camp, Gao Shangzhi, Jiang Bingshu and He Jiangang, members of the special fund management committee, attended the closing activities as representatives, and the children were excited to see the photos of Grandpa Gao unveiling the summer camp as early as 2010, and they stepped forward to shake hands and hug the grandfathers.
"Today, I am proud of my predecessors. Tomorrow, the seniors will be glorified because of me..." Under the command of Hu Jinhai, a retired military cadre, the children of hope primary school sang school songs in unison, and loud songs resounded throughout the venue. As the lyricist of the school song, Hu Jinhai, a retired military cadre, had just finished a lecture in the morning and came to meet the children in the afternoon. "Children, thank you for always singing the songs I wrote for you!" Hu Jinhai excitedly saluted the children, "Thank you Grandpa Hu! The children saluted him to the Young Pioneers. This scene infected the audience, and the applause lasted for a long time.
Xue Xixiang, a military writer and retired military cadre, disregarded his unhealed foot injury and came to the scene of the event on crutches to send a heartfelt message for the children. He said that in the future, it is necessary to continue to give play to professional advantages and create literary and artistic programs for the children of hope primary schools of retired military cadres in the two places, enrich their campus life, and help them grow up in an all-round way. There is also Sun Yezhong, a retired military cadre, who took the initiative to donate generously after learning about the children's trip and used the resources around him to take the initiative to provide convenience for the summer camp.
In order to let teachers and students of the two places deeply feel the red vein and city scenery of Shanghai, expand the study and education of party history at multiple levels and angles, and promote the deep integration of the Shanghai military retirement public welfare brand and the party history study and education, under the careful arrangement of the organizer "Shanghai Military Hugh • Concentric Dream" special fund, the students measured the red hot soil with their feet, inherited the red spirit with a child's heart, and more than 2,000 photos comprehensively showed the children visiting the memorial hall of the first congress site of the Communist Party of China, the memorial hall of the former site of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Yuanwang No. 1, the Oriental Pearl, the Shanghai Ocean Aquarium, The People's Heroes Memorial Tower and other highly representative red landmarks, cultural venues and vivid scenes of urban style, the live broadcast of photos allows viewers to have a deeper understanding of the red heritage carried by Shanghai, a deeper understanding of the magnificent reform process, and a firm confidence for the inheritors and practitioners of the city's red genes.
Curious eyes, innocent and bright smiling faces, warm and busy figures... For 7 days, brother Arwen, the photographer who followed the film, pressed the shutter of the camera again and again, using the lens to capture the beautiful moments of the children at the summer camp. When he learned that many of the recipients of the reception service were children in the old revolutionary areas of Jiangxi, he suddenly had mixed feelings, because Ah Wen, who had struggled since childhood, was also from the old revolutionary areas of Jiangxi. "The children are quiet, well-behaved, and very Jiangxi." As soon as Ah Wen saw this group of children, he felt particularly "lucky", following the shooting during the day, and at night he would not stop tinkering and producing pictures, busy until late at night, and upload the pictures of the day to the live broadcast platform before midnight.
"I am about to leave Shanghai, and I am very reluctant in my heart, and I very much want to see this beautiful place again, beautiful people, beautiful character. The time spent here, I will remember in my heart, and the love for you, I will also hide in my heart. Come on, the future can be expected! "One photo after another chronicles the children's emotional diaries and volunteering routines. Young workers from the city's military retirement service management agency have become the children's most intimate volunteer big brother and big sister on this trip; Yang Fan of the Huangpu District First Dry Rest Center and Jiang Wei of the Jiangwan Military Rest Center are young parents and mothers, entrusting the infant children to their families, and throwing themselves into the summer camp escort, which was warmly welcomed by the children; Zhang Susu of the Yangpu Military Rest Center is a college student who has just graduated, participated in the summer camp volunteer service for the first time, and won the elegant title of "beautiful sister" with warm and meticulous escort Chen Chuanyi of the Pudong Military Rest Center is an experienced volunteer who has volunteered for the World Expo and the anti-epidemic campaign. He is good at co-ordinating, leading the children to complete efficient visits, improving the quality of the summer camp day activities, and has become a "child king". "I hope that you will take the rare experience in Shanghai as an important experience in the process of growing up, always have a grateful heart, thank you for the beautiful encounter, and wish your dreams come true as soon as possible!" Chen Chuanyi flipped through the photos and wished him deeply.
"The significance of the love action of the grandparents of retired military cadres is far more than material assistance, but more importantly, it is to encourage and spur them spiritually, and we will always be grateful and submit a satisfactory answer sheet to the retired military cadres with more excellent results." "Although the time is short, the love that our teachers and children receive from here will benefit us for the rest of our lives!" Thank you for your tireless and diligent companionship, after returning to school, we will pay more attention to 'bacon casting the soul, enlightening wisdom and wisdom', and cultivating the children into excellent successors who "five educations are simultaneous and moral education is the first". The principals of hope primary schools in Jiangxi and Anhui, two Shanghai military retirement cadres, said so.
Pay tribute to the century- and chase dreams with one heart. In the past 20 years, the public welfare spirit and feelings of Shanghai military retirees have been continuously relayed and inherited. In recent years, under the correct leadership of the Municipal Bureau of Veterans' Affairs, the city's retired military cadres have actively inherited the excellent work style of our party and our army, given full play to their own unique advantages, and continued to aid the construction of the Hope Primary School for Retired Military Cadres in Shanghai with a series of public welfare as a boost to block the intergenerational transmission of poverty in the old revolutionary areas. The 12th Shanghai Retired Cadre Hope Primary School Summer Camp Project was held, which not only built a platform for children with excellent character and excellent character to come to Shanghai to learn, experience and grow in the summer, but also provided volunteer service opportunities for retired military youth. The Shanghai military retirement system will deeply study and implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's "July 1st" important speech, guide military cadres to always maintain the true color of the revolution, inherit the red gene, build a broader platform for retired military cadres to play a role, interpret the original mission with the old, and gather new hopes with fist and love.
