6th May 2014
為推行「六惜」校園，寶血會嘉靈學校本年度以「六惜」生活為學習主題，培養學生惜己、惜人、惜飲、惜食、惜物、惜光陰的良好品德。學校已於去年12 月15 日舉行「六惜」嘉年華暨學習展覽，慶祝創校45 周年。嘉年華除展示學生學習成果外，另設各項精彩表演及多個別出心裁的攤位區，包括「六惜大觀園」、「活力台」、「藝趣樓」及「美味亭」等，為學生提供多元化的遊戲節目; 此外，還邀請了彭潔玲、鄧駿輝、余翠怡幾位校友到場，分享他們在嘉靈的校園生活點滴，及長大後的發展和奮發歷程，讓師生、家長及校友共度了一個愉快難忘的周日，更促進親子關係及對學校的歸屬感。另一方面，學校已於去年12 月18 日安排「白馬入校園」，活動由永恒教育基金主辦，香港傑出學生協會贊助。當天騎術中心派出專業導師即場講解，活動分兩個部分：在禮堂進行專題講座，介紹馬匹之演變、身體結構、溝通方法及播放影片等；另外同學亦可以在操場跟馬匹近距離接觸，講解員詳細介紹了馬匹之脾氣、特性、騎馬需要之裝備，當介紹馬匹的食糧時，還邀請同學親自給馬兒餵吃點心。學校希望透過活動，同學除了認識到馬與人類的親密關係外，也藉此培養同學善待動物，關愛生命的情操。
DBC Radio 4 非常班房
Metro Broadcast Corporation Limited
A special series of sharing session on Volunteer Training Scheme 2013 were produced after the scheme. Ten episodes of approximately 10 minutes each were broadcasted on the programme “Song Dedication”, which is a programme of Metro Broadcasting on weekdays from 8pm to 10pm on the digital music channel, during 2nd Dec to 6th Dec and 9th Dec to 13th Dec. A total of 2 hours interview was produced.
The series adopted the format of an interactive talk show in which the participants, members of organising committee and executive committee were interviewed by the DJs, Bingo and Jeffrey. The reflections of other participants of VTS were also read out by the DJs during the programme, although they could not partake in the programme due to limiting quota.
The sharing session allowed the participants to share their experience and learning during the VTS, motivating the audience of the programme to take part in voluntary work. It also serves the function of promoting the scheme and increasing the profile of our Association. In addition, the feedbacks from the participants were highly positive as they regarded it as a novel and memorable experience. Therefore, similar sharing session is recommended for the future activities.
Digital Broadcasting Corporation
Similar to the cooperation with Metro Broadcast Corporation Limited, a series on Volunteer Training Scheme 2013 were produced with Digital Broadcasting Corporation (DBC). The programme is called “非常班房”, which is a programme broadcasting regularly from 4pm to 6pm on weekdays. The sharing session also aims at sharing the learning and experience of the participants with the general public. However, much longer interviews of a total of six hours were broadcasted on 2nd, 3rd and 4th Dec 2013.
The series provided the participants with a valuable opportunity of being a guest DJ. Since every episode lasted for 2 hours, all the participants had to play an important role in the programme. The DJ advised the participants on their presenting skills and techniques of radio programme, enriching the experience of the participants. Our series was conferred the honour of “非常十大”, which is presented to the best 10 activities of this year.
