Amid the crackle of fireworks
the old year slips away
As firecrackers echo near and far
The Spring Festival arrives right on
cue Bearing ages of reunions
and wishes true
Welcoming years of joy
and well-being anew
2026 New Year

The initiative aims to collect unique experiences and reflections from faculty and students during the holiday, helping everyone create lasting memories of this special occasion.

After being selected by staff, these photos will be added to a voting mini-program, where students and teachers can cast their votes for their favorite entries!
