On the afternoon of
December 19th, staff from Education department of XOM went to Yunding School to
deliver a vivid lecture about Olympic culture, share interesting Olympic
related knowledge with the students and teachers and lead them through a
fascinating trip of Olympic culture.
Without hesitation, Greek mythology gave Olympic Games an origin
of myths. The staff started with ancient Greek myths, and then vividly
described the grand occasion of ancient Olympics with examples, which
effectively inspired imagination in the students. They seemed like they felt
the winners’ joy. Since 1st Olympic Games, 1896 Olympic Games, held in Athens,
in just over a century, modern Olympic Games have changed greatly. They
interacted with science technology, culture, art, etc. and formed their
characteristics. The world is longing for the coming 2018 Winter Olympics in
Pyeongchang and 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing.
The lecture was rich and colourful. With the explanation of the
staff, students experienced Olympic culture and learned a lot. This lecture
allowed them acquire knowledge outside textbooks and learn about the past,
present and future of Olympics, broadened their horizon and inspired the spirit
of chasing dreams bravely and striving tenaciously to success.
Xiamen Olympic Museum positively disseminated Olympic culture,
developed Olympic spirit and made this lecture a great success.
