长沙康礼·克雷格学校2025年端午节放假通知及安全须知

Dear Parents,

As the Dragon Boat Festival approaches, the aroma of zongzi fills the air, and swaying mugwort leaves convey wishes for good health. In accordance with the Notice of the General Office of the State Council on the Arrangement of Some Holidays in 2025, the school's Dragon Boat Festival holiday schedule is as follows:

To ensure that children have a safe, healthy, joyful, and meaningful holiday, the school has prepared safety reminders for the Dragon Boat Festival. We hope that during this holiday, you will actively cooperate with the school to build a solid safety framework for our children.

With the gradual rise in temperature, drowning accidents enter a high-risk period. Parents should remind children to adhere to the "Seven Prohibitions and Two Abilities" principle for drowning prevention:

Seven Prohibitions:

Do not swim alone.

Do not go swimming with others without prior permission.

Do not swim without the supervision of parents or teachers.

Do not swim in unfamiliar waters.

Do not swim in waters lacking safety facilities or lifeguards.

Do not swim, play, or wade in dangerous waters (such as streams, rivers, canals, ditches, reservoirs, puddles, or mountain ponds) on the way to and from school.

Do not attempt rescues without proper training.

Two Abilities:

Ability to alert, dissuade, and report when encountering dangerous situations.

Ability to perform basic self-protection and self-rescue.

Parents are urged to earnestly fulfill their guardianship responsibilities, strengthen safety education and supervision of children, and always keep track of their whereabouts, ensuring the "Four Knowings":

Know where the child is going.

Know who the child is accompanying.

Know what the child is doing.

Know when the child will return.

During the holiday, with heavy traffic flow, traffic safety remains of paramount importance. Let's collectively observe traffic rules and act as civilized travelers.

Pedestrian Safety:

Cross the road via zebra crossings, footbridges, or underpasses; never climb over isolation barriers.Observe traffic signals strictly, following the "stop at red, go at green" rule.Refrain from chasing, playing, kicking balls, or riding scooters on roads to avoid accidents caused by distraction.

Transportation Safety: 

When using public transportation, stay steady and hold on; avoid playing or making noise in the carriage.Board or alight only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop to prevent falls.When traveling in private vehicles, always fasten seat belts; children under 12 should not occupy the front passenger seat.Never extend heads or hands out of vehicle windows. 

While holiday scenery is captivating, travel safety must never be overlooked. Maintain constant safety awareness and act as guardians of safe travel.

Pre-Trip Preparations:

Research the destination's weather, transportation, and scenic spot opening hours in advance, and plan the itinerary meticulously.Prepare essential medications for emergency use.Inform family or friends of your travel plans and maintain unobstructed communication.

Scenic Area Visits:

Strictly comply with safety regulations and warning signs in scenic areas; do not enter undeveloped or hazardous zones without authorization.When engaging in recreational activities, read safety instructions carefully and avoid dangerous maneuvers.

During the holiday, while a variety of delicious foods are available, prioritize food hygiene to prevent "illness from improper diet".

Balanced Diet:

Maintain regular meal times, avoid picky eating, consume more vegetables and fruits to ensure a balanced nutrition.Limit intake of spicy, oily, cold, and other irritating foods, and avoid overeating.

Hygiene Practices:

Cultivate good personal hygiene habits, washing hands before meals and after using the restroom.Avoid raw or cold foods and unwashed fruits/vegetables to prevent food poisoning and intestinal infections.

While the online world is vibrant, it harbors hidden risks. When using the internet, enhance self-protection awareness and practice civilized and safe surfing.

Screen Time Management:

Reasonably schedule internet use to avoid addiction to online games, short videos, etc., preserving eye health and physical well-being.

Privacy Protection:

Never disclose personal information (name, age, address, school name, phone number, etc.) online casually.Avoid meeting online acquaintances；if necessary, meet in public places under parental supervision.

Information Discernment:

During the holiday, home safety demands equal attention.

Electrical Safety:

Holidays are ideal for relaxation, but mental well-being should not be overlooked. Students should maintain a positive and optimistic mindset, communicating promptly with parents, teachers, or friends when facing challenges.

Structured Planning:

Parents are encouraged to monitor children's emotional shifts, establish open communication channels, provide adequate care and support, and let children experience the warmth of family.

The Dragon Boat Festival is not merely a time to savor zongzi and remember ancient sages but also an opportunity for family bonding and embracing folk customs. During this holiday, parents may encourage children to engage in hands-on activities to experience traditional culture and foster growth through the integration of nature and humanity. Finally, we wish all parents a healthy Dragon Boat Festival and a happy family; may students enjoy the joy of the festival and thrive!
