On 8 October 2025, Confucius Institute at UWC was invited to participate in the “Mental Health and Wellness Week” organized by the university’s Centre for Student Support Services (CSSS). With the theme “Wellness in Bloom,” the event aimed to enhance awareness of mental health among students and staff and to promote a positive and balanced lifestyle.

During the event, teachers from the Confucius Institute led participants in practicing Baduanjin, a traditional Chinese health-preserving exercise known for its gentle movements and focus on breathing regulation. The session was warmly received by students and staff for its relaxing and restorative effects. The Confucius Institute also set up a Chinese tea experience area, offering Chinese tea tasting to participants and inviting them to experience the calm and harmony embodied in Chinese tea culture.

By integrating the essence of traditional Chinese medicine with wellness education, the Confucius Institute brought unique cultural vitality and Eastern wisdom to the UWC campus, further deepening mutual understanding and cultural exchange between China and South Africa.
