校長的話

今年對楊中來說是非常特別的一年，因為我們即將慶祝第35周年校慶，並期待一系列的慶祝活動即將展開。

在上一個學年，我們非常榮幸邀請到教育局局長蔡若蓮博士JP蒞臨本校參觀。這次訪問意義非凡，因為我們將「熊貓」定為學與教的跨科主題，並以此主題推動閱讀。在「『書』送快樂閱讀獎勵計劃」中，學生有機會透過玩「熊貓夾公仔機」贏取熊貓玩偶作為獎勵。我們希望這樣的體驗，能增添同學的幸福感。

今年，我們延續「熊貓」主題，將「The Chill Panda 無憂熊貓」引入課程中。透過閱讀《The Chill Panda 無憂熊貓》書籍，學生將跟隨 Chill Panda 的生活旅程，沉浸於故事中，同時學習並實踐本校的核心價值。此外，我們還成立了「The Chill HeART Lab 無憂心舍」，這是一個結合互動教學與藝術治療的空間。同學們可以在這裡利用The Chill Panda 卡片遊戲表達情感，創作藝術作品，並與 Chill Panda 一起練習靜觀技巧。

為進一步促進健康生活，我們還建設了一個充滿活力的新空間——「The Chill Energy Hub 無憂加油站」。在這裡，學生可以與 Chill Panda 一起在跑步機上跑步。當學生進行運動時，螢幕上的 Chill Panda 會與他們一同奔跑，為他們加油打氣。我們相信，這不僅能呼應聯合國17項可持續發展目標中的「良好健康與社會福祉」宗旨，也能與教育局提出的 4Rs精神健康約章（Rest休息、Relaxation放鬆、Relationship人際關係、Resilience抗逆力）相呼應。我們希望透過結合運動與趣味性的參與，幫助學生在身心各方面取得全面成長。

我們將以「The Chill HeART Lab 無憂心舍」與「The Chill Energy Hub 無憂加油站」的啟用作為本年度的首個慶祝活動，並希望「The Chill Panda 無憂熊貓」主題可以全面啟發學生——不僅在學術上有所成就，更能在精神層面得到成長，並將核心價值深植於學生的心中。我們衷心希望同學們能在樂善堂楊葛小琳中學這個大家庭中，享受愉快的校園生活！

This year is a very special year for our school, as it is our 35th anniversary and we are looking forward to many celebrations coming up.

It was our privilege to have invited Dr Choi Yuk-lin, JP, Secretary for Education to come to our school in the last academic year. This visit was especially meaningful, as we adopted “Panda” as our cross-departmental theme for learning and teaching, while employing the same theme to inspire a love for reading. As a reward for our reading scheme, students had the chance to win a panda toy by playing our panda claw machine. We hope that this experience could also promote students’ well-being.

This year, in continuation of the “Panda” theme, we are introducing the Chill Panda into our curriculum. Through reading the Chill Panda books, students will follow the life journey of the Chill Panda, embracing the core values of our school as they immerse themselves in the stories. Other than that, we have established The Chill HeART Lab, a room for interactive lessons and art therapy. Here, students can express their feelings using the Chill Panda card games, create art pieces and practise mindfulness alongside the Chill Panda.

To further promote good health and well-being, we have constructed a new, vibrant space called The Chill Energy Hub, where students can run together with Chill Panda on the treadmills. As the students exercise, they will see Chill Panda running with them and cheering them on-screen, as they run to meet some check-points. We believe this can echo the Good Health and Well-being objectives of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and also resonate with the EDB’s 4Rs Mental Health Charter - Rest, Relaxation, Relationship and Resilience. By blending physical activity and playful engagement, we aim to nurture both body and mind, helping students thrive in all aspects of their growth.

We will proudly launch the opening of The Chill HeART Lab and The Chill Energy Hub as the first celebratory event of the year and hope that the Chill Panda theme can inspire students holistically- not just academically but also spiritually- while infusing the core values in them. It is our deepest hope that students will enjoy the school life in our family at Lok Sin Tong Young Ko Hsiao Lin Secondary School.
