From December 15th to 19th, Aurora from Class 5, Grade 11, held a special equestrian exhibition in the fourth-floor atrium, adding a warm and soothing touch to the campus in winter. The exhibition systematically introduced basic equestrian knowledge and elaborated on the therapeutic effects of equestrianism on the public as well as patients with conditions such as autism. It attracted numerous teachers and students to stop by and visit.

The exhibition is divided into four sections. The equestrian knowledge popularization column featured clear layouts, presenting key information about equestrian classifications and equine physiology. The equestrian equipment display area showcased a diverse range of gear, allowing visitors to experience the charm of equestrianism up close. The lucky wheel draw area added interactive fun to the visit. Additionally, an open book paired with a wall adorned with horseshoes served as a space for expressing thoughts and feelings. Furthermore, the various flowers and plants extending from the exhibition area into the corridors add a touch of natural freshness and an immersive overall feeling. Some students‘ feedback mentions that smelling the fragrance makes them feel as if they are surrounded by nature, and their mood relaxes accordingly while stepping into the building every morning.

Speaking about the exhibition's design concept, Aurora explained that horses, though unable to speak, can keenly perceive the rider's most subtle emotional fluctuations and muscle changes, making them innate ‘listeners of emotions’ and "mirrors of the soul." What’s more noteworthy is that a horse’s body temperature is one degree higher than that of humans. This just-right warmth can gently dispel inner anxiety. Whether beginners or experienced riders, everyone can find resonance in horse-related experiences—equestrianism has long transcended the realm of "sport," becoming a profound dialogue with oneself.

During their free time, many students came to experience the equestrian activities. They gently touched the harnesses to understand their structure, tried on cowboy hats, held whips, and posed for photos imitating Napoleon's classic poses while sitting on saddles. These photos spread widely on campus social media, becoming a hot topic on campus during the winter. Many students also filled out equestrian knowledge questionnaires during their visit and participated in a lucky draw to win souvenirs such as plush horse pendants and horseshoe keychains. While receiving small gifts, everyone also carried the blessings conveyed by this fun interaction, welcoming the upcoming Year of the Horse.

Each student who join received an exquisite equestrian-themed "horse flower" as a souvenir—originally used in equestrian competitions as a substitute for medals. As the exhibition concludes, "Equestrianism has long transcended the realm of sport, becoming a dialogue with oneself." When fingertips touch the warm fur, when the body rises and falls gently with the horse's breathing, the pressure seems to gradually fade away with the rhythmic clatter of hooves. In those calm and profound eyes of the horse, many people may see a more serene and authentic version of themselves.
