Translations from Chinese by Candice Zhou


In the Wenchuan earthquake, Huanhuan kindergarten in Zundao town was collapsed at the moment more than 80 children were having their noon snap. This disaster caused 3 teachers and more than 50 children to death. Now two teachers are under surgery and one child is missing.
After the earthquake, parents were crowded around the ruins, calling their children’s names from time to time. At the beginning, children could give faint response. But as time passed by, the response was weaker and weaker. Parents felt helpless, sitting near the ruins, anxiously waiting for the rescues.
The director of the kindergarten bursted into tears when she reminded of the scene when Miss Qu Wangrong was found by the rescue team. “At that time, Miss Qu flutter to the ground, with her back firmly blocked the collapse of the concrete sheet, arms still firmly holding a child. The child is rescued, but Miss Qu is leaving us forever.”
In the ruins, you can see small pillows, quilts and shoes everywhere. People don’t want to imagine the helplessness and panic at that time. However, it’s because an ordinary people just like Miss Qu, we have more children rescued.
