What were the rituals for school children to enter school in ancient times?

The ancient ceremony for the admission of schoolchildren was the opening ceremony.

The concept of the pen-opening ceremony:

The pen-opening ceremony is one of the four major gifts in the life of ancient scholars, commonly known as breaking the veil. School children will get up early on the first day of school and come to school. The enlightenment teacher will teach them the most basic and simple principles of life, and teach them how to read and write. Then they will pay homage to the statue of Confucius before they can enroll in school. This ceremony is the opening ceremony.

Features:

In terms of clothing for participating in the opening ceremony, the Academy took the meaning of "opening" and customized the doctor's clothes instead of copying the clothes worn by ancient scholars. Close to real life. When enlightenment teachers teach about respecting teachers and valuing education and being filial to parents, they do not recite ancient texts, but speak in a more understandable and easy-to-understand way to cater to the needs of children.

At the writing ceremony, the calligraphy teacher held a brush and dipped it in thick ink, writing the character "人" on the hanging rice paper. "人" is a Chinese character with simple strokes but profound meaning. It means that learning to be a human being is the most important thing in the enlightenment stage of life.

Then the teachers walked up to the children holding cinnabar, put a red mark on their foreheads, and wished them bright eyes and bright minds. Parents can also give cards filled with blessings to their children.
