Children in Wuying Miao Village — located in the mountains along the border of China's Guizhou and Guangxi — celebrated the upcoming International Children's Day with a series of fun and festive activities on Wednesday.

Of its 145 households, 104 are officially part of Guangxi and 41 belong to Guizhou. Despite this division, the village has long been a united community, where residents from both sides live, work, and celebrate together in harmony.

The small school site currently runs two classes — one for first graders (7 students) and one for second graders (6 students). Among the 13 children, 8 are from Guangxi and 5 from Guizhou. Despite its size, the site offers a complete curriculum, including Chinese, math, art, physical education, health and safety, as well as local cultural programs such as lusheng (a traditional reed-pipe instrument) and Miao folk singing.
