What are the reasons for traditional culture education in schools?

The living environment of traditional festivals in China is facing severe challenges of economic globalization and modernization. The gradual deepening of western culture has had a serious impact on the traditional folk culture in China. Traditional festivals are increasingly ignored by young people. A considerable number of young students have been ignorant of or turned a blind eye to traditional festivals with national characteristics, and are keen on "Christmas" and "Valentine's Day" in the West. Therefore, it is very urgent for educators to use traditional festivals in China to educate students. It is necessary for us to let students know the traditional customs and traditional morality contained in traditional festivals through education. Through festivals, students can receive the edification and education of traditional virtues and inherit and carry forward the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. In a word, it is the duty and responsibility of our educators to inherit, carry forward and develop the traditional festivals in China, influence the younger generation with the traditional virtues of China, and implement the educational strategy of sustainable development, which is also the need of building a harmonious socialist society.

Carrying forward the glorious traditions and virtues of the Chinese nation is a good teaching material for ideological education of students;

Implementing Scientific Outlook on Development and promoting the construction of a harmonious socialist society are the expansion of the concept of sustainable development to society, culture and ethics. In the field of education, in addition to educating the educated with values, behaviors and lifestyles consistent with sustainable development, the connotation of education needs to be enriched and expanded, covering environmental education, development education, democracy and legal education, cultural diversity education and other fields. These educational fields will adapt to the concept of building a harmonious society and play an irreplaceable role.
