傳承中華文化的專題研習

肩負栽培「學習小主人」使命

Carry forward Chinese culture through Project Learning

Bear the responsibility to nurture “little master of learning”

可譽的小一至小四級孩子於一月進行了以「中華文化」為主軸的專題研習，他們於不同的範疇進行探索。在老師的協助下，孩子以「做中學習」(Learning by doing)形式，結合已有知識及技能，親自經歷資料搜集、整理、分析、綜合、反思等過程，作出結論，建構新知識。

我們希望孩子在是次研習中，不但能探究到跨學科知識，更能從中國的習俗、節慶及歷史等主題，深入體會源遠流長的中華文化，同時亦能提升批判能力、創造能力；通過與朋輩相處和合作，也學會了與他人協作和溝通等寶貴經驗，貫徹了初小「DEAR」學習計劃中所提倡「探索知識勇士」的精神，成為「學習小主人」，具備終身學習的條件。

In January, our P1-P4 students took part in project learning under the theme of “Chinese culture” and they explored in different aspects. Under teachers’ guidance, students learn in the form of “learning by doing”. New knowledge and understanding are constructed when students collect data, do analysis and reflect by themselves with the combination of their prior knowledge.

We hope that through project learning, children will not only explore interdisciplinary knowledge, but also appreciate the value of Chinese culture, and at the same time improve their critical thinking ability and creativity. By cooperating with their peers, they will also learn to collaborate and communicate with others, and become the “Warrior of Knowledge Exploration" mentioned in the "DEAR" learning programme for junior form students. They will become the master of learning which is crucial for their lifelong learning.

可譽於1月20日上午舉行了「新春同樂日」活動，當天一眾就讀小學的孩子齊齊穿上華服，透過多元的喜迎新春活動，如中國傳統剪紙、新春掛飾製作、設計具有事事順利寓意的風車、DIY兔年紅包摺紙等，一起認識及體驗博大精深的中國傳統新春習俗及文化。

至於小五及小六級孩子更秉承「以長帶幼」的中華美德，分別在禮堂及活動室，自創一個個別具心思的年宵遊戲攤位，予小一至小四級的學弟妹及區內就讀幼稚園的孩子玩樂。從小五及小六級大孩子帶領遊戲時所展露的滿足笑臉，加上學弟妹及區內幼稚園小孩子投入活動時的手舞足蹈，可見是次「可譽新春同樂日」已達到預期目標——把節日的歡愉及暖心的祝福傳遍東涌區。

當天同場舉行了「STEAM創意揮春迎兔年」親子比賽(幼稚園組)頒獎典禮，是次比賽的反應十分熱烈，共收到百多份作品，恭賀各得獎家庭，作品均十分精美，盡顯親子的心思，亦能把新春節日及本校一直所重視的「STEAM」元素充分反映出來。

最後，可譽謹在此再次感謝幼稚園、家長及孩子對「新春同樂日」及「STEAM創意揮春迎兔年」親子比賽的喜愛及支持，使之有聲有色，並得以順利完成。感恩在教育路途上，一直得到您們的擁護及愛戴，共同為豐富孩子的學習經歷而努力，不勝感激。

The morning of 20^th January, 2023 was the big day of ‘Ho Yu Chinese New Year Fun Day’. On that day, Ho Yu children wore festive Chinese traditional clothes together and learnt and experienced traditional Chinese New Year customs and culture through a wide variety of new year activities, such as the making of Chinese traditional paper-cut, new year decoration and the designing of windmill which has the meaning of ‘everything going well’ and DIY red envelope origami for the Year of the Rabbit.

As for our P5 and P6 students, they uphold the Chinese virtue of ‘Senior leads Junior’, set up self-designed Chinese New Year game stalls in school hall and activity room for junior students from P1 to P4 and kindergarten kids within the district to play. From the smiling faces of P5 and P6 students when leading the game, together with the exciting gestures of the junior students and kids from kindergartens in the district when playing the games and activities, we know that our goal of ‘Chinese New Year Fun Day’ has been achieved - to share ‘love and care to others’ and ‘happiness of Chinese New Year’ to the community.

At the same time, the prize-giving ceremony of ‘STEAM: Creative Fai Chun for the Year of the Rabbit’ Parent-Child Design Competition was held. The response to this competition was enthusiastic. Close to one hundred and twenty entries were received. Congratulations to all the winning families. The entries are very beautiful. They fully show the parent-child thoughts, and can also fully reflect the New Year's Day and the "STEAM" element that our school has always put emphasis on.

Finally, Ho Yu would like to thank the kindergartens, parents and children for their love and support for the "Chinese New Year Fun Day" and the ‘STEAM: Creative Fai Chun for the Year of the Rabbit’ Parent-Child Design Competition, which made it so exciting and successfully completed. We are grateful for the love and support from all of you, and working together to enrich children's learning experience.
