“I am going to draw a verdant tree with light yellow blossoms. Butterflies are flying around and under the tree, the grass is swaying.” “I have blue sky, white cloud, and green trees. The drawing should be fine.” …

On March 11th, CIE organized a themed Tree-planting Day painting activity, advocating that students should care for the environment and pay attention to environment protection.

The staff made full preparations before the painting, providing the participants with enough painting fabrics, various pigments, and diverse brushes. With full expectation, students depicted their anticipation for green hills and clear waters and their passion for environmental protection. The completed work was attached to the walls in Youren College, whose colourful and creative images received much attention and admiration.

As one of the staff members of the activity, Gao Xiang from Grade 2017 said, “Just like what President Xi said, ‘Beautiful scenery is the gold and silver mines.’ This event is more than a reminder of the upcoming Tree-planting Day. We also hope to increase people’s enthusiasm for environmental and ecological protection. After all, the green hills and clear waters need everyone’s participation and effort.”

“Due to various reason, we may not be able to plant a real tree on the Tree-planting Day, but we can start with small things in daily life to protect greenness with our action.” Hou Renjie from Class Biotech 1703 said.

The activity is short, whereas environment protection is a long-term action. Through this event, the student not only improved their cooperation and friendship but also realized the importance of protecting the environment.

Painting devotedly
