最近到教育學院參加有關價值教育的講座，心想只是一般性的理論，沒有什麼特別，後來越

聽越有味兒，發現在價值教育中的十二種原素︰和平、尊重、愛心、寬容、幸福、責任、合

作、謙虛、誠實、簡樸、自由、團結，不止是老師在進行教育過程時要滲透其中，以培育幼

兒健康、良好的品格，更是我們每一個人做人或做事必須堅守的原則，這樣不單是個人的完

善，亦有利社會的健康發展。

家人和朋友總說我「童心未泯」，我很欣慰，在我十幾年的幼教生涯中，體會最深的就是用

自己永遠年輕的、充滿愛的心，靠近身邊所有的孩子，和他們一起度過他們那燦爛的童年，

也使我的生活更充實、更有意義。在這十多年的工作經驗累積，我深深理解孩子的心，孩子

們也接愛了我這個大朋友。我想，一名幼師應該心境永遠年輕的，這樣才會成為孩子的伙伴

，獲得他們的信任，建立友好、和諧的親密關係。同時，在孩子身上也獲得重大的教育智慧

，這股原動力，使我永遠不知疲倦。

每天在學校大門迎接小朋友，迎面而來的都是天真可愛的笑臉，不禁令人暖在心頭。老師們

花盡心思設計教學活動，讓幼兒投入於多姿多彩的校園生活裏。小朋友喜歡上學、享受學習

，是家校合作下的成果。孩子就像一棵幼苗，在老師及家長的灌溉下，健康茁壯地成長。各

位幼教同工，繼續努力吧！

Hello! I am Ms Joanna and I teach English and Drama to K2 and K3. I have come over to Hong Kong

for a year from England and I used to live near London. I have graduated from University and have a

degree in Philosophy and Sociology. I really enjoy working here at Siu Lun Court and feel really

blessed to be here. All the teachers and staff have been really welcoming and are really friendly. The

children are all so sweet and I am really enjoying teaching them. They are all eager to learn and pick

up the English language quite well. I have been impressed. I love how the school is so colourful and

how all the individual children's needs are met.

You never knew how far the children can go or where their interests lie until you watch them perform

on stage. I felt happy for them when I saw the children standing on stage performing the drama‘Little

Red Riding Hood’and Where is the Dentist?’with confidence. This is the way we help children

learn and I suppose much of what is learned and taught beyond the parameter of the curriculum.I think

this is what education is all about! It is not only learning from books but also learning through play.

When children play together, they learn how to interact with others, how to settle a disagreement

amicably and sharing. Children will learn an important skill – socialization and this skill is going to

benefit them the rest of their life.

I am so delighted to be a member of the English teaching team in SKH St. Peter's Church Castle Peak

Siu Lun Kindergarten. Our school gave me a golden opportunity to participate the 'Quality English

Language Education at Pre-Primary Level' Project. It allowed me to be exposed to a variety of different

teaching strategies. As a teacher, I am amazed at the curiosity and enthusiasm of the students. Each

day is a challenging new experience for me. I really enjoy watching your children learn and grow and

change from day to day. I hope that all the things I do will help in some small way. So it will make

more cherished memories in your children's early childhood.

Coming from South Africa as I do, working at St Peter's has been a very enlightening experience for

me. Our kindergartens back home are very different. The children in South Africa do not wear school

uniform and they partake in a lot more outdoor activities than the children in Hong Kong. I find the

children from St Peter's are more advanced when it comes to reading and arithmetic and have an

altogether more structured and disciplined education. We enjoy teaching because of this and It's very

rewarding to see the children progress at such a fast pace.

I arrived in Hong Kong with my family from Doha, Qatar in July 2005, where I taught at the

International School of Chouifat for 6 years. I was teaching 3 to 4 year olds which was very rewarding

to see them grow and improve immensely with their English Phonics and maths.

I have been teaching at SKH St. Peter’s Church Castle Peak Siu Lun Court Kindergarten since 27

August 2007 and I am really enjoying the experience of teaching drawing and art with my K2 classes.

Through art and drawing, children are able to express individuality and creativity and show a personal

understanding of self. Art activities also promote large motor and fine motor (eye-hand coordination)

development.Other learning that takes place through art activities is developing concentration and

attention span, and stimulating visual representation.

Satisfaction comes with this learning and with the creation of something that is uniquely one’s own

語言是幼兒打開知識寶庫的鑰匙。根據學者研究所得，二至五歲正是學習語言的黃金時段

。身為普通話老師的我，必須把握這個時機，引領幼兒認識我們的母語---普通話。

根據前穌聯心理學家維果斯基（Vygotsky）的社會建構論，幼兒學習需要具備主動性、實用

性和社會互動性。故此，作為幼教老師的我們，應為兒童設計有趣味性及多樣化的活動；並

提供豐富而多姿的學習環境；更需鼓勵兒童多與老師同學溝通交流。讓兒童愉快地學習，為

終身學習奠下良好的基礎。
