Guangdong University of Foreign Studies' 'University Students Summer Social Practice Programme' this year involves 110 teams and 2,970 college students.
The annual programme aims to let students put their knowledge into practical use through serving society - especially communities in poor rural areas.
Students mainly serve as voluntary teachers and conduct surveys on the lives of rural residents.
The Try & Goal Team from the School of English for International Business went to Bo Ai Primary School in Zhongshan to host a summer English camp.
At the opening ceremony, team leader Huang Zongyu said it was a great honour to be able to make a contribution to education in Zhongshan, and he and his team members would do their best.
Try & Goal Team member Zhou Kuizhi said he was looking forward to interacting with the children and planned to teach them some magic tricks.
