澳大鄭裕彤書院師生亦到訪湖南的時務學堂舊址，感悟近代知識分子“救亡圖存”的愛國情懷與使命；參觀了第一師範學校舊址，探尋青年毛澤東求學經歷，體會先輩的熱血奮鬥；登上橘子洲頭，欣賞湘江風光，加深對愛國情懷的認知。此外，湖南大學歷史系助理教授李屹軒以“嶽麓山中的六朝史”為題，向澳大鄭裕彤書院師生分享嶽麓山承載千年的歷史記憶。

UM students attend Confucius memorial ceremony at Hunan University
To promote cultural exchange between universities in Macao and the Chinese mainland and to deepen Macao students’ understanding of traditional Chinese culture, Cheng Yu Tung College (CYTC) of the University of Macau (UM) organised an exchange trip for its students and faculty to visit Hunan University from 25 to 28 September. During the trip, CYTC members attended the Confucius memorial ceremony to commemorate the 2,576th anniversary of Confucius’ birth.
The opening ceremony of the exchange programme took place at Yuelu Academy, where Gong Yingxue, associate master of CYTC, and Xiao Yongming, dean of Yuelu Academy, delivered speeches. They both expressed their high regard for the exchange programme. As part of the programme, students and faculty from UM and Hunan Universities attended the Confucius memorial ceremony and experienced the traditional Chinese ritual.
In addition, students and faculty from CYTC visited several sites in Hunan. At the former site of Shiwu College, they gained insight into the patriotic sentiments and missions of intellectuals of the late Qing dynasty who sought to ‘save the nation from peril’. At the former site of the First Normal School of Hunan, they learned about Mao Zedong’s academic journey and the struggles of the predecessors. They also enjoyed the scenery of the Xiang River at the southernmost tip of Orange Isle. Moreover, Li Yixuan, assistant professor in the Department of History at Hunan University, gave a lecture on the history of Yuelu Mountain during the Six Dynasties period, enhancing the CYTC members’ understanding of its thousand-year history.
The exchange programme is a testament to the strong friendship between the two colleges and has laid a solid foundation for future cooperation. In return, Yuelu Academy will send its students to visit CYTC in August next year.
