This winter vacation, Guangzhou Shuqian Road Primary School assigned special "homework" to students - coinciding with the Beijing Winter Olympics, encouraging students to adhere to more than 2 hours of outdoor sports activities a day. In addition, students are reminded that the cumulative use time of electronic products for non-learning purposes does not exceed 1 hour per day.
"I hope that by encouraging students to participate in physical activities, pay attention to eye health, let them come out of TV and games, protect their eyesight, and develop healthy living habits." Principal Xie Shaomei said.
During the winter vacation, The Qianlu Primary School also opened on-campus trusteeship, opening more than 30 sports, science and technology, art and other projects, with nearly 600 students participating. Xie Shaomei introduced that basketball, football, badminton, etc. are the most registered projects, and parents are very willing to let their children come to school to play. "After the 'double reduction', parents' awareness of paying attention to the development of children's quality is increasing, especially the emphasis on physical fitness and vision protection has been significantly improved." She said.
In addition to making an appointment with his daughter in elementary school to watch the tablet every day and paying attention to keeping the light when reading, this winter vacation, Mr. Huang, a citizen of Guangzhou, also accompanied his daughter to insist on exercising every day and traveled around the city. "The child has less homework, so we hope to take advantage of the holidays to make her physical fitness better, harvest happiness in nature, and better protect her eyes." Mr. Huang said.
The protection of the "little eyes" of the holiday has always been an important issue of concern to all sectors of society. Yang Xiao, deputy director of the Refractive and Low Vision Specialty of the Zhongshan Eye Center of Sun Yat-sen University, introduced that the winter vacation is the peak period for primary and secondary school students to visit the doctor, and it is also a weak point in the prevention and control of myopia in the past. The school can better protect the students' eye health through physical exercise, extracurricular activities, eye exercises and other arrangements. But during the holidays, the focus on "little eyes" may be overlooked due to the different family circumstances.
However, this winter vacation, she paid attention to the parents who brought their children to the clinic, and the health awareness of myopia prevention and control and vision protection has been significantly improved. "Even if the child is not short-sighted, parents will pay attention to the child's farsighted reserves and consult whether treatment or intervention is needed." Yang Xiao said that after the "double reduction", parents are also consciously increasing their children's outdoor activities.
Science popularization for "small eye" protection is also in action. In a national style animation, a "Chinese medicine man" with a full belly teaches children the knowledge of scientific use of the eye and prevention of myopia for children Sui Sui, PingPing and An An - this is the original eye protection Chinese medicine science popularization animation launched by the Guangzhou Primary and Secondary School Health Promotion Center. According to the relevant person in charge of the center, in addition to animation, during the winter vacation, the center also provides expert consultation questions and answers and popular science knowledge pushes on the WeChat public account for adolescents and children to love eye care, reminding students and parents to pay attention to protecting vision and keeping "small eyes" away from "small glasses".
