Description of Our Community: Our school is in Sanchong where is near Taipei City. Because of the convenient communication, Sanchong becomes the area that has the most immigrants from southern Taiwan. The population is big and there are a lot of miniature industries. It‘s a quite prosperous town.

Project Description: Our project is named “ Jiao, Taoism’s rituals, Sanchong Carnival : Five-consecutive-day rituals in 2008 in Sanchong city to pray for peace”. We discovered the mystery of “Jiao”, the rituals of Taoism and local art and music related to the activity. By doing so, we can not only understand the meaning of ritual activities but enhance the prosperity and development of local culture of Sanchong city by a close cooperation between community and school.
