Humanities Learning Week: Stepping Out of the Classroom to Explore Hong Kong
Our school will hold a "Humanities Learning Week" from February 23rd to 25th, 2025. In line with the primary school humanities curriculum's emphasis on "learning from life" and "understanding Hong Kong, the nation, and the world," a three-day workshop has been arranged for students from Grades 1 to 6.
The activities are designed in three phases: On the first day, students from each grade will leave the classroom for field trips to different locations; in the afternoon, they will organize their findings and conduct workshops. On the second day, students will engage in in-depth discussions in small groups, dividing tasks to collect information and design learning reports. On the third day, based on the speech lessons learned in the previous semester, students will focus on eloquence training and stage etiquette rehearsals in preparation for their presentations in the afternoon, comprehensively enhancing their expression and teamwork skills.
Tiered Visits: From Community to Nation
The visits during this Humanities Learning Week were carefully arranged according to students' grades and learning priorities, allowing students to start from their local communities and gradually connect to national history and defense security:
Sixth graders visited the Hong Kong Museum of the War of Resistance Against Japan and Coastal Defence to learn about Hong Kong's history of resistance against Japan and the development of its coastal defense, understand that today's peace is hard-won, and cultivate their care and responsibility for the nation and Hong Kong.
