Introduction

Life education is one of the core educational principles at our Methodist College. Our goal is to implement holistic education and cultivate students' comprehensive development in areas such as morality, intelligence, physical fitness, group dynamics, aesthetics, and spirituality. We believe that besides academic education, it is equally important to help students grow in emotional intelligence, interpersonal relationships, character development, and spiritual life.

Our life education curriculum is designed based on the specific needs and developmental tasks of students throughout their growth journey, drawing inspiration from the established life education curriculum in Taiwan. Form 1 to Form 6 focuses on different themes:

Form 1: A Journey of Self-Discovery (Personal Growth)

Form 2: The Art of Self-Leadership (Self-Management)

Form 3: Nurturing Dreams through Career Education (Unleash Your Potential!)

Form 4: Inspiring Through Social Service, Civic Education, and National Education

            (Embrace the Role of a Visionary Leader)

Form 5: Embracing Global Citizenship in the New Era (Championing Environmental Education)

Form 6: Cultivating Wellness and Resilience (Achieving a Harmonious Lifestyle)

To align with these themes, our life education team designs various class teacher periods and activities for each form. We believe that life education should not be one-sided or confined to the classroom. Students need firsthand experiences and interactions with others to grow and gain a deeper understanding of the purpose and meaning of life. Therefore, in our life education curriculum, each grade is assigned various experiential activities of different scales. For example, Form 1 has a Growth Ceremony and a Growth Buddy Camp, Form 2 has adventure training camps and social service activities, Form 3 has class teacher periods, Form 4 has academic service-learning activities, Form 5 has campfire night, and Form 6 has a farewell ceremony.

Furthermore, in recent years, we have placed a strong emphasis on value education, aiming to cultivate students' humility and compassion through serving others. Each year, we collaborate with social welfare organizations to arrange social service activities for students at different forms. These activities include visiting elderly centers, elderly individuals living alone, and organizing events at social welfare institutions. Additionally, we have established volunteer service teams to encourage student participation in various community service activities. Apart from local community service, we also organize voluntary service trip to Mainland China or overseas, allowing students to broaden their horizons and develop an open-minded attitude.

Life education is an integral part of our school's educational system, and we are dedicated to nurturing students' holistic development, helping them become individuals with character, a sense of responsibility, and a caring spirit, while preparing them for their future.

National Security Education (NSE) is an important component of values education. It is inseparable from national education and an indispensable part of school curriculum.

The Law of the People’s Republic of China on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (NSL) has been promulgated and implemented since 30 June 2020. As stipulated in Article 10 of the NSL, “The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region shall promote national security education in schools and universities and through social organisations, the media, the internet and other means to raise the awareness of Hong Kong residents of national security and of the obligation to abide by the law”. It is the responsibility of our school to implement NSE through the school curriculum. 

Building on schools’ implementation of Constitution and Basic Law education, we adopt a “multi-pronged and co-ordinated” approach to promoting NSE holistically through related Key Learning Areas/subjects, values education (including moral, civic and national education), as well as learning activities within and beyond the classroom at different learning stages according to students’ cognitive abilities. Elements of NSE integrated organically in and connected naturally with the curriculum contents of various subjects to strengthen students’ understanding of the rule of law, national conditions, and enable them to understand the importance of safeguarding national security. This also enhances students’ sense of national identity and facilitates their development of important concepts such as nationhood, “One Country, Two Systems”, rule of law, rights and duties, responsibility, commitment, respect for others and self-discipline.

中一迎新日，與師兄師姐校園遊蹤。2024年8月27及28日。讓中一同學在開學之前與來自高年級的中三至中五同學在校內進行活動。

師兄師姐於這兩天與中一同學一起進行活動，是次目的除了讓中一同學能盡快互相認識外，其中的校園遊蹤活動亦可讓同學對獨特的校園班房分布及設施有所認知，方便日後上課及活動。另外，當中的二夫長計劃，由師兄師姐個別帶領同社的中一同學，在這一年裡共同活動、分享、及支持，務求建立緊密的關係，分擔精神及情緒上的壓力。其中與師兄師姐共進午膳，亦是讓他們建立良好關係的機會。

因大家都是第一次見面，中一同學與師兄師姐都懷著興奮莫名的心情互相認識。活動過後，大部分帥兄師姐均表示關係良好，期望再與中一同學見面及交流。有些師兄師姐已經與相關的同學熟絡起來，自發性的溝通及見面。

同學需要按照圖樣，以手中的積木努力拼湊，最後完成要求。

盡管烈日當空，同學還很積極參與在籃球場上的拼字遊戲。

師兄師姐幫手派飯給中一同學，同學魚貫排隊等候取飯，之後再分組與師兄師姐傾談。

2. Focus on the mental health and stress of adolescents, provide positive and preventive activities, and prevent adolescents from using inappropriate methods to deal with emotions and stress.
3. Provide various opportunities for adolescents to showcase their strengths and establish positive peer groups, reducing the influence of negative peer groups.
