Encouraging children's passion for science
On Sept 9, 2016, Xi returned to Beijing Bayi School — his alma mater — and talked with students designing a mini satellite for scientific education while touring the school's science lab.
He asked them to tell him when the satellite was about to be launched. The students sent a letter to Xi before the launch and received a reply from him in December 2016.
Xi said in the letter he was pleased with their passion and bravery in scientific exploration. He hoped the students would stay hungry for knowledge, keep their interest in scientific exploration and foster their scientific spirit.
