"I was usually busy with school, so I didn't look so closely at half of the banks of the Masu River. "I didn't expect there to be such a place around Suzhou Creek, and I want to come back more often in the future." Recently, there is a group of energetic "Suhe Little Messengers" in the Kaixuan area - during the winter vacation, it coincides with the Spring Festival, Changshou Road Street and the Putuo District Education Bureau organized a number of high schools and colleges to carry out the "Our Festival" Putuo University Hall (Public Welfare School) high school students' volunteer service social practice activities with the Kaixuan area as the front-line position.
The busy and active figures of the students by the Suhe River and in the area left a deep impression on the surrounding residents, and added a lot of lively "New Year's flavor" to the community. The area arranges the children's "practice schedule" to be "full", adapts measures to local conditions, learns by doing, and relies on the historical heritage of the Banmasu River to create an "all-round community classroom" for high school students that combines practical exercise and cultural experience.
Field Tours:
Pursue the "impression of the Su River" in the eyes of students
Under the leadership of the staff, the children walked on both sides of the Su River to visit and discuss, and shared what they saw and heard in combination with the historical stories told by the staff, so that the historical and cultural connotations of the Banmasu River could be connected and continued among the youth.
When they walked into the Banmasu River Station and Xiaohuayuanwan Party and Mass Service Station, the students were attracted by the "dragon boat" elements scattered everywhere. The so-called "Eighteen Bays of the Suhe River, the Bay has a Story", the Little Garden Bay is the eighth bay of the Putuo section of the Suzhou Creek, and the north side of the Bay Corner is the Putuo Park that the local people are accustomed to calling "Little Garden", and this bay is also named after it; The Suzhou Creek, which flows through the Xiaohuawan section, is the competition channel of the Suzhou Creek City Dragon Boat International Invitational Race in Shanghai, so the entire service station is built with the theme of "watching the dragon boat race and enjoying the crown of the Suzhou River".
Huge silver dragon boat statues, huge dragon boat pictures, unique wave design tables and chairs ......The dragon boat spirit of "riding the wind and waves and striving to be the first" was displayed in front of the students in the form of the most "visual impact", allowing everyone to witness the passionate "other side" of the Banmasu River.
Guarding the Sioux River:
Cultivate the "spirit of service" in the hearts of students
In the practical activities, the students not only visited and learned about the Suhe culture, but also optimized the environmental facilities and enhanced the humanistic atmosphere in the community through a series of practical volunteer services.
In the deep winter, it is cold, but the children's enthusiasm for work in the cold wind is getting higher and higher. Whether it is sorting out shared bicycles or cleaning and renovating debris in the corridors, or knocking on the doors of the elderly in the rain to send New Year's condolences, sweeping dust and welcoming the new year, every seemingly ordinary and tedious community work is a new step towards the "beautiful Suhe", and their serious efforts are also seen and remembered by many residents. "This kid learns to wrap spring rolls with me, and he learns so well! "My child especially likes the student's sister to play with her ......The real "likes" from all mouths are the best proof that the students are doing their best to be "little volunteers".
As the most precious resource in Putuo District, the "Half Masu River" carries the most authentic memories and dreams of the grassroots people and witnesses the development and changes of Shanghai. In recent years, the popularity of the "Half Masu River" cultural brand among young people has been increasing, and students interpret and love the Su River in their own ways and perspectives, so that the two banks burst out with the fresh power of "positive youth".
Next, Changshou Road Street will continue to devote itself to making services have "temperature", culture "thickness", and "breadth" for the people, continuously improve the level of community public services guided by the needs of the masses, and promote the high-quality development of grassroots service construction.
