On May 16, the 35th Dalian Sophora Flower Festival grandly opened. As an iconic cultural tourism brand event of Dalian, this year's Sophora Flower Festival, themed "Sophora Flowers Bonding Friendship, Culture and Tourism Promoting Development", is both an important window to showcase the city's charm and an important platform to promote cultural tourism exchange. The etiquette service team from the Smart City Service Industry College of Dalian Maple Leaf Vocational and Technical College, with professional competence, elegant demeanor, and full enthusiasm, successfully completed the etiquette reception task for this opening ceremony, adding color to the grand event with youthful style and becoming a striking scenic line on the scene.

To ensure the high-standard and zero-error completion of this service, the college attached great importance and made meticulous preparations. In the early stage, from personnel selection and etiquette training to process docking and simulation drills, instructors repeatedly polished details such as students' standing posture, gestures, makeup, and service language, deeply integrating etiquette knowledge with activity scenarios, helping students quickly enter the service state. At the event site, Maple Leaf students in uniform were in high spirits and behaved with dignity. From guiding guests at the opening ceremony, welcoming and receiving guests, to etiquette coordination and on-site service at various segments, they demonstrated solid professional competence and good spiritual demeanor with standard movements, friendly smiles, and rigorous attitudes, winning unanimous praise from on-site guests and staff through practical actions.

This activity was a precious practical teaching opportunity, not only exercising students' professional skills but also cultivating their teamwork capabilities and sense of social responsibility. It is a vivid embodiment of the college's deepening of industry-education integration and promotion of practical education.

All along, Dalian Maple Leaf Vocational and Technical College has always adhered to fostering virtue through education as the foundation, market demands as the orientation, deepening industry-education integration and school-enterprise cooperation, and focusing on the dual improvement of students' professional competence and practical capabilities. This etiquette reception service for the Sophora Flower Festival is both a concentrated display of the college's etiquette education achievements and a vivid practice of Maple Leaf students serving local development and demonstrating youthful responsibility. In the future, the college will continue to rely on professional advantages, build more high-quality practical platforms, allow students to grow in talent and bloom with brilliance in the process of serving society, and contribute youthful strength to the high-quality development of the local cultural tourism industry.
