SEASONAL SPECIAL GRADUATION Taoshan Elementary School Graduation Ceremony Bright Side Projects first visited ChingChuan in 2011 and shortly thereafter, began our regular creative education workshops with the children there. This is our seventh year joining Taoshan Elementary School’s graduation ceremonies and the third year we have been printing individual photo albums for each graduating youth, gathered from each and every workshop they have joined. In our workshops children learn socialization, learn through play, and build trust and bonds with amongst themselves and with others. We got up bright and early to make the 2 hour drive to the school in time for the ceremonies and performances. We also were there when the children said goodbye to two more of their teachers - one had been with the school for seven years. When Teacher Lin invited us to the front to make a similar speech, we modestly declined as it was not our time - we did not want to steal the spotlight away from the hardworking teachers but also noted Bright Side was not going anywhere and we will still be there for Taoshan kids this summer continue into the new school year and into the future.
