By Fang Jun, a practitioner from Taiwan

(Clearwisdom.net) May 7, 2005 marked the 44^th anniversary of Minan National Elementary School in Taipei County. After a whole night of rainstorms, the sky was clear and the breeze was cool and pleasant. The school held a sports meet to celebrate the anniversary. The school especially arranged a stand for Falun Gong practitioners. Pupils and their parents kept coming to the stand to learn more about Falun Dafa. Practitioners patiently explained to the young children about the stories depicted in the paintings that were shown in the stand. They also taught children to read poems from Hong Yin [a collection of poems by Falun Gong's founder, Master Li]. The children were very happy and joyfully shouted in front of the camera, "Falun Dafa is great!"

The practitioner who coordinated this activity said that he contacted the school as soon as he learned about the sports meet from his child who attended this school. The person in charge of the event at the school said, "I've waited for you for a week already."

Practitioners actively participated in the activity. During their exercise demonstration, the principal of the school and the director of the Parents' Association also followed along with the practitioners to do the exercises. After the performance, the school issued a banner to honor the Falun Gong group, while the practitioners also presented a poster entitled "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" to the school. The joyful anniversary celebration concluded in a festive atmosphere. Practitioners brought the beauty of Falun Dafa to the school.
