Ready to take the ferry to Cheung Chau!

Uni-Y (HKUST) initiated a project for children from new immigrant family to know more about Hong Kong so as to let them adapt to their new lives in Hong Kong and increase their self-esteem. The volunteers introduced them to the history of Hong Kong through a detective game held in Cheung Chau. They also showed care and love to the children which made them feel welcomed to Hong Kong society.

Description

這次活動很充實亦很有意義,可以去平時較少去的長洲,又可以去學習如何與小朋友相處,今次的活動是1對1,而我帶的小朋友是比較靜而又識照顧人。除了我帶的小朋友,我亦可以觀察到不同小學生的性格。他們的性格各有不同,傾談的話題其實和我們小時候沒有太大分別,不外乎Pokemon Go之類。這次的活動改變了我對小朋友的看法。其實與小朋友的相處沒有我想像中難,以後有類似活動希望我能參加。

經過今天與小朋友一同參加的活動,令我對現今小朋友的思考方法和知識層面有更多了解。同時也令我感到,不管是現在的小朋友,還是十幾年前的小朋友,其實只要用心聆聽小朋友的聲音,就很容易拉進關係。
