From May 26 to June 2, 18 children from Hong Kong and Macao were invited by the China Soong Ching Ling Foundation (CSCLF) to visit famous landmarks in Beijing as part of their participation in the gala performance "Growing Together: Me and My Motherland." Their visits included Tiananmen Square, the Palace Museum, the National Centre for the Performing Arts (NCPA), the Former Residence of Soong Ching Ling, China Soong Ching Ling Science & Culture Center for Young People (CSCLSCC), Beijing Zoo, and Prince Kung's Mansion. The visits left them captivated by the blend of classical heritage and modern vibrancy in Beijing.
During the Flag Raising Ceremony held in Tiananmen Square, the children eagerly witnessed the national flag rising with the first rays of sunlight. A boy from Macao expressed his joy and shared that the experience filled his heart with pride.
Most of the participants were experiencing the wonders of Beijing for the first time. The architectural grandeur, vibrant colors, and profound historical significance of the Forbidden City left the children in awe.
At the Former Residence of Soong Ching Ling, the children had the opportunity to immerse themselves in recreations of Madam Soong's living spaces and explore a collection of manuscripts, photographs and documentary materials that shed light on her life story. The enduring legacy of Madam Soong served as a source of inspiration for the young participants.
The majestic mansion and classic garden of the Prince Kung's Mansion, which had witnessed the passing of seven generations, captured the children's attention during their visit. At the Beijing Zoo, the children erupted in cheers at the sight of the giant pandas.
Throughout their brief visit, the students delved into the rich history and modernity of Beijing. One student from Hong Kong, Zhou Yongxin, expressed a sense of pride for the cultural heritage passed down by their ancestors and expressed a desire to contribute to the glory of China. Jack Wang, president of the National Conditions Education Association (Macao), emphasized the importance of the students sharing their experiences and insights with their friends back home.
During the gala event "Growing Together: Me and My Motherland," which took place on May 31 and June 1 at the NCPA and was sponsored by the CSCLF, China Welfare Institute, and the NCPA, the children from Hong Kong and Macao performed the opening act by singing together with their mainland peers.
The children who participated in this exchange program were selected by the Hong Kong Girl Guides Association and the National Conditions Education Association (Macao) from Hong Kong Fame Singing Academy and School of Macao Residents.
