1944, at the end of the Anti-Japanese War, Nanyang was occupied by the Japanese army, and the remittances were cut off, so it had to go to Fuzhou, Shanghai and other places to raise funds from businessmen. In Fuzhou, with the strong support of Mr. Cai Youlan, then president of Fujian Chamber of Commerce, he finally borrowed the premises of Jinjiang Ancestral Hall (Zhenjuntang) and Jinjiang Academy on the top of Luoxing at 1944, and founded Jiangkou No.1 Middle School. At the beginning of the school, this middle school relied on Hanjiang Middle School and was called Hanjiang Middle School Jiangkou Branch. 1945 was officially named "Private Putian Jinjiang Junior High School" with the approval of Fujian Provincial Education Department of the National Government. The name of the school was inscribed on the tablet by Zhang Qin, the last juren in Putian in the late Qing Dynasty. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Nanyang traffic resumed. As a traditional overseas Chinese school with a history of more than 60 years, Jinjiang Middle School has been deeply known by Jiangkou people and even Putian people. "Jinzhong" has become a familiar school synonym, and the design of the school emblem is based on the pinyin "J" and "Z" beginning with the word "Jinzhong".
(1) The overall shape changes the letters "j, z" into two books, which embodies the characteristics of teaching and educating people in the school.
(2) The two books form a "human" shape, which is very sporty. They not only responded to the school motto of "learn to seek knowledge and learn to be a man", but also pursued the school spirit of "people-oriented, morality first", and also highlighted the teaching styles of "harmony, joy in teaching, erudition, pragmatism" and "courtesy, joy, diligence and innovation"
(3) The shapes of the letters "J, Z" are similar to those of Sun, Moon and Haiyan, which not only shows the natural law of the alternation of the sun and the moon, but also shows the cultural connotation of "Zou Lu on the seashore" and "Hakka fragrance". The brave Haiyan shuttled through the sun, moonlight and central China, showing the great ambition of Jin Middle School to fight against the sea and the sky.
(4) The overall shape of the school emblem is closely related to the "river" of Jinjiang Middle School and the estuary of overseas Chinese hometown, and it also contains the pictographic charm of "mountain", giving people the imagination of "overseas Chinese capital" to promote learning and teaching, and reappearing the regional style of "facing the sea by mountains" with brocade.
(5) In terms of color application, the contrast between red and blue is strong and profound. Red is the most penetrating color, symbolizing enthusiasm and representing the vitality and vigor of the school. Blue is the color of the sea, with a wide range of meanings, symbolizing the achievements of the school and the pursuit of running a school facing the future and the world. School motto: learn to seek knowledge and learn to be a man.
School motto is the soul and flag of the school. "Learn to seek knowledge and learn to be a man" embodies the school group's pursuit of educational philosophy and school-running direction. In the ever-changing era of knowledge economy, learning is not knowledge itself, but the ability, methods and skills to acquire knowledge and cultivate students' habits, abilities and qualities of lifelong learning. "Learn to seek knowledge" is a lifelong passport and pass issued by the school to students. "Learning to be a man" has rich connotations, so it is very important for students to understand the truth of being a man. "Cherish life, be kind to nature, be honest and trustworthy, respect unity" is the bottom line of being a man. "Independence, self-improvement and self-confidence" are the basic contents of being a man. "Helping others, being brave and selfless" is the measure of personality. School spirit: people-oriented, morality first.
Man is the subject and foundation of the world. Adhering to "people-oriented" means implementing the humanistic thought of "equality, respect, cooperation and development", taking students as the center and educating people as our responsibility, promoting quality education, facing all students, paying attention to individual differences and promoting students' free, harmonious and all-round development. "Putting morality first" is to play the normative and guiding role of moral education in campus culture. Since ancient times, our country has attached great importance to self-cultivation and moral cultivation, and cultivated the norms of being a man and doing things, the patriotic feelings of "everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world" and the lofty sentiments of "wealth is not immoral, poverty is unshakable and unyielding". Moral education is the soul of quality education. Our school clearly defines the orientation of running a school, adheres to moral education first, leads students to pursue truth, goodness and beauty, and shapes students' sound personality. Teaching style: harmonious, happy to teach, knowledgeable and pragmatic.
"Harmony" is the primary condition for school development. Harmony can unite people's hearts, unite strength and develop the cause. Only by establishing interpersonal relationships and teachers' self-harmony can schools achieve internal and external harmony, help each other in the same boat, be harmonious with others, be stable and orderly, have a prosperous career and be healthy and upright. "Music education" is the realm of teaching and educating people. Only when teachers are willing to teach can they take pleasure in suffering, enhance their sense of responsibility, stimulate their potential, be diligent, dedicated and selfless, and lead students to success and healthy growth. "erudition" is the requirement of teachers' professional growth. The reform of basic courses requires teachers to constantly improve their own quality, keep pace with the times, and study for life, so that they can accumulate wealth and flourish in teaching. Being realistic is an important quality of teachers. Only when teachers have a pragmatic work style, solid professional knowledge, and devote themselves to education with the feelings of "bowing their heads and being a willing ox" can they be worthy of the old saying that "learning to be excellent is to be an official". Style of study: be polite to others, love learning and be diligent and innovative.
"Rite" is the cornerstone of morality. In a narrow sense, courtesy means paying attention to etiquette and comity, including paying attention to etiquette and being polite. Broadly speaking, courtesy means stressing civilization, morality, order and hygiene, and paying attention to public civilization and public morality. Strictly abiding by moral norms is conducive to perfecting personality, consolidating the foundation of being a man and improving the basic moral quality of citizens. "Happy learning" is the motivation of learning. Only by learning happily can we regard learning as a pleasure, a pursuit, a responsibility and a happy life journey from ignorance to wisdom. Diligence is the most basic condition for success. There is no road to diligence in Shushan, and there is no limit to learning the sea. Students should be diligent and inspirational in order to achieve something and repay the society. Innovation is the soul of a nation. Teenagers are the future of the motherland, and it is the unshirkable responsibility of the school to cultivate students' innovative ability.
The determination of the school emblem, school motto and "three styles" is a comprehensive summary and refinement of the school-running achievements and ideas, which embodies the orientation and pursuit of campus culture by teachers and students in Jinzhong and will certainly lead the development of school education.
