Today is an important day at Donghai Elementary School, as we start our read-aloud competition that focuses on local features. There's a lot of excitement among everyone, and our students have put in a lot of effort to prepare for this special event.

We're very pleased to welcome Professor Chen Meizhen from the Applied English Department at National Pingtung University. Her joining us adds prestige to our competition and brings a higher level of professionalism to the judging of the performances. Director Pan YiChing, also from the Applied English Department, and Teacher Zeng Yuyin from our school are part of the judging panel too. Their experience and commitment to fairness will be valuable in evaluating the students' performances.

Our students are ready and looking forward to showing off their skills and what they have learned. They are a gifted group, and we're sure their performances will be outstanding.

We are very thankful to Principal Dai Guozhang for his continuous support, which has been essential in making this event happen. His leadership has helped us come together to appreciate the hard work and abilities of our students at Donghai Elementary School.
