HAIKOU, June 2 (Xinhua) -- Outdoor activities have gained popularity among schoolchildren in south China's Haikou, the capital of Hainan Province, since China launched a "double reduction" policy last year.
The policy has reduced excessive homework and curbed the frequency of exams and after-school tutoring in core school subjects. And since then, schools and families have placed more emphasis on sports.
