CHONG YANG IS COMING!!!

In 2026, the Double Ninth Festival takes place on 18th, October,2026.

According to records from the mysterious book Yi Jing, the number 6 belonged to the Yin character while the number 9 was thought to be of the Yang character. So, on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, both day and month are Yang characters. Therefore, the festival was named the Double Ninth Festival.

Traditions

  1. Climbing Mountain: Chongyang Festival is also known as the Height Ascending Festival. This custom was supposedly started during the East Han Dynasty when people usually climbed mountains or towers.

  2. Eating Chongyang Cakes: According to historical records, Chongyang cake was also called the Flower Cake, the Chrysanthemum Cake, and the Five-Color Cake. The Chongyang cake is a nine-layer cake shaped like a tower. On its top should be two sheep made from flour. Some people place a small red flag on the top of cake and light candles.

  3. Inserting Zhuyu and Stick Chrysanthemum: During the Tang Dynasty, inserting Zhuyu on the Chongyang Festival became popular. Ancient people believed that inserting Zhuyu helped avoid disasters. And women stuck chrysanthemum in their hair or hung branches on windows and doors to ward off evil.

The most important thing to do in Chong Yang is to visit elderly relatives, Since China designated the Double Ninth Festival as the Senior’s Day, people usually spend time accompanying elderly relatives on the day for respect. It is a great opportunity to climb to high places or have an excursion for whole families.

Have fun on 18th Oct/ Chong Yang festival, and don't forget to visit your elderly relatives!!!!!👴👍 👵👍

Though we would need to convince Mr @Moses-Hu to let us go to a mountain field-trip. BUUT convincing the Executive Vice-Principal would be hard tbh....

Didn’t like last semester you did?

Yeah but I want to go again, this time in MYP because I wanna know what it feels like to be at a field-trip without PYP and what it feels like to go in MYP since I'm MYP now, no more PYP.

Can’t we go to like somewhere new, like somewhere that is connected to our lessons
