BEIJING, Sept.18 -- Children learned Chinese characters during a trial course in Futian District, Shenzhen, Sunday.

The "traditional" preschool teaching calligraphy, Chinese classics, ink painting, etiquette and other traditional Chinese knowledge will open its first branch in Shenzhen later this month.

Started by Zhou Zongkui, professor at Central China Normal University, the school targets children between 3 and 8 and aims to cultivate in them good character and behavior during weekend courses.
