the yellowed graduation photos witnessed the ups and downs of the rural primary school over the past few decades, and also carried the old teachers' deep friendship and youthful memories of education. during the event, the retired teachers also told the new teachers the stories in the photos.

wang xinhua, an 86-year-old retired teacher, recalled that the teaching conditions in the old school were very difficult. "before the relocation, the classrooms in the old school were very dilapidated, the windows were not neat, there was no wind protection in winter, there was no playground, just a small fence, and there were great restrictions on holding activities."

wang yonglin, a 96-year-old retired teacher, said that although the classrooms were simple and teaching resources were scarce, they knew the importance of education to children. the teachers were dedicated to teaching, and seeing their students grow up was their greatest comfort and motivation. "sometimes 10 or 20 students would come to my house to visit me, and i would be very excited. they have all become successful, and i feel very happy that my students are all over the world."

while telling their own stories of teaching and educating, the old teachers used their own personal experiences to convey the true meaning and value of education to the young teachers, encouraging them to continue to carry forward the fine traditions of rural education, stick to their teaching posts, and nurture every student with heart. "the old photos i saw today are all things i have never seen before. i didn't expect that schools were like this decades ago." qiao shu, a teacher at jurong gecun central primary school, said, "today, i was moved by the stories behind these old photos told by the old teachers. in that difficult era, they were so dedicated to their work and devoted to educating people. they are our role models."
