In ancient China, the school entrance ceremony(入学典礼) was one of the most important ceremonies. Children began school between the ages of 4 and 7 in ancient China. Since there was no certain time to begin a new term at that time, the most important thing for parents was to choose a lucky day for their children to enter school.

Before that, children would kowtow(叩头) to the statue of Confucius 9 times and then to their teacher 3 times to show their deep respect. During the ceremony, the teacher would put a red point on the students􀆳 forehead(前额) as it meant opening the wisdom eye. Children would also ring a certain bel to start a new term. After that, they could finaly sit down in their seats and begin to study. The First Writing Ceremony was a very important ceremony for every student. Every day, students would arrive at school earlier than their teacher, and kowtow to the statue of Confucius, and then go back to the seats.
