Mission
With a vision to nurture children as empathetic and caring individuals through integrated curriculum and experiential learning, the Foundation has been planning the initiative of a school-based character education program.
With a whole year of preparation in planning curriculum and training instructors, we launched our first school- based character education program in October this year! For four months, we have been working closely with General Chamber of Commerce & Industry of The Tung Kun District Cheong Wong Wai Primary School and
Jockey Club Primary School
to deliver our character classes to all Primary 3 students from both schools.
Each week, our trainers go to the schools to teach fun and interactive classes with the students based on themes around Responsibility, Respect, Perseverance and Kindness. Students took the roles as respectful chefs, perseverant zoologists, and kind doctors to learn about the different character strengths in themed modules.
