Campus culture
Argot
An Tui ( English: burning oil in the dark; Simplified Chinese: 暗推) origins from the Wenzhounese (the dialect of Wenzhou). This argot is firstly used by a Chinese teacher of Zhejiang Wenzhou High School, referring to the phenomenon that students learn after bedtime. This action requires people to prepare a portable lamp because the school doesn't provide power during bedtime. Students would use light-shield curtains to prevent being found by housemasters. This argot means studying hard without letting others aware of the diligent.
The sports day
The sports days, which often last for 3 days, contain track and field. According to tradition, every 3 classes of different grades would team up as a league to join the competition. Each league would design and buy the outfits weeks ahead of the sports day. Many leagues write their songs to cheer members up, and some even make their mascots and flags.
