隨著本教學年度快將結束,向來以道德、社會及公民教育概念作為三把重要鑰匙,以培育「社會傑出小成員」為要任的JEMS Learning House,已經精心設計了多個品德教育暑期課程,包括適合20至30個月幼兒Baby JEMS課程、為K1至K3幼稚園學生而設的Junior JEMS課程,以及適合小一至小六學生的核心課程。課程將多項品德元素融入互動課堂、遊戲及義工活動中,讓一眾學員歡度一個饒富意義的充實暑假。

作為本港品德教育的先驅,JEMS的暑期課程因應導師多年的教學經驗和孩子的年齡而悉心訂制。例如在每星期兩堂的Baby JEMS課程中,幼兒將學習到「分享」及「樂於助人」兩種較易掌握、而在成長中卻是必不可少的品格。Junior JEMS小學生核心課程則以五天為一單元,每單元學習不同品德元素如責任感、團體合作和自制能力等,家長可因應孩子需要及時間,靈活選擇不同的課程組合。

此外,JEMS Learning House特別與多家慈善機構合作,讓學員從體驗式學習中深刻地領會課程的品格素質,加強學習成效。例如以「關懷」為主題的Junior JEMS課程便安排學員探訪聖雅各福群會的長者,藉著義工活動學習主動關心身邊家人和朋友的精神。而以「感恩」為主題的小學生核心課程則安排了惜食堂總部的參觀活動,讓學員瞭解香港的貧窮和食物浪費問題,學會在日常生活中常懷感恩之心;另一核心課程以「堅毅」為主題,學員將到訪黑暗中對話體驗館,親身感受失明人士在日常生活中面對的困難和挑戰,從中學習堅強和毅力的重要性。

JEMS Learning House創辦人劉馬露明校長表示:「暑假是孩子從繁重學業中稍事休息的寶貴時間,但品德教育卻無季節之分。藉著暑假的黃金機會,我們希望為孩子提供連貫及包含更多體驗元素的課程,這將有助深化學習,將所學的良好品德融會貫通,在生活中實踐出來!」

JEMS暑期課程現正接受報名,於531日或之前報名更可享9折優惠,請即登入JEMS Learning House 網站(www.jems.com.hk)或致電3188 1516瞭解詳情。

As the academic year will be concluding soon, JEMS Learning House which is devoted to nurturing Junior Excellent Members of Society with right moral, social and civic values, has designed a series of character programmes for the coming summer holiday. It includes Baby JEMS programmes for pre-school children aged 20-30 months, Junior JEMS programmes for K1-K3 students, as well as core programmes for P1-P6 students. The programmes combine character elements with interactive classes, games and volunteer activities, so as to create a fun and fruitful summer for students.

As the pioneer in character education in Hong Kong, JEMS boasts a group of experienced teachers, who thoughtfully design the summer programmes to suit children of different age groups. The Baby JEMS programmes which offer 2 classes per week, for instance, introduces to pre-schoolers the virtues of “sharing” and “helping others”, two character qualities that are easier to grasp and fundamental to children’s growth. The Junior JEMS programmes and core programmes for primary students are 5-day courses, each one with a character quality as its central theme, such as responsibility, teamwork and self-control. Parents can flexibly choose programmes based on the needs and schedules of their children.

In addition, JEMS Learning House partners with various charitable organizations to incorporate experiential learning into its programmes, so as to maximize students’ learning efficiency. For example, to accentuate the theme of “caring”, the Junior JEMS programme arranges students to visit the elderly at St. James’ Settlement. The volunteer experience would let students learn about how to care for family members and friends around them. The core programme themed “gratitude” arranges students to visit the headquarters of Food Angel, where they could understand the situation of poverty and food wastage in Hong Kong, and learn to be thankful for all that they have. Another core programme themed “perseverance” brings students to the Dialogue in the Dark Experiential Exhibition, where they would experience the difficulties and challenges of visually impaired people, and learn about the importance of perseverance.

Mrs. Christine Ma-Lau, Founder and Principal of JEMS Learning House, shared, “Summer holiday is the valuable time when children take a break from academic activities, but character education takes place all year round. The long holiday allows us to arrange consistent programmes incorporating more experiential learning elements to deepen students’ learning. We hope students could successfully integrate the newly learnt character qualities and apply them in daily life.”

JEMS’ summer programmes are now open for registration. Enrol on or before 31 May to enjoy a 10% early bird discount. Please visit JEMS Learning House’s website (www.jems.com.hk) or call 3188 1516 for more details.
