我想在这里让大家了解 家协对提升厕所卫生计划的过程:

在第一次家协会议以后,

1. 家长理事先和唐副看了几次厕所,再和清洁工人谈了以后, 发现除了有硬体的问题(如水压,拉水装置,学生人数和厕所的比例。) 另外一个厕所肮脏的主要原因是用厕所的方式,因此决定做以下几件事,希望能提升厕所的卫生:
    
   a. 拟定厕所规则,电邮给陈校长后,才由学校复印,老师也协助把厕所规则与问卷一起发给家长,方便家长向孩子讲解。(我们统计了问卷,有90% 的家长已对孩子讲解厕所规则,非常谢谢合作!) 为了不想增加老师的负担,厕所的招贴都是由家长理事处理。

   b. 有个理事还特意抽空去买小垃圾桶,置放在厕所,以方便女同学丢弃卫生棉

   c. 校方也配合家协,同意在休假期间让家长理事,装置新锁(有些门不能上锁),置放 小垃圾桶与在厕所贴上招贴提醒孩子关心厕所卫生

这些都是比较简单,不用太多费用,又不会影响孩子上课。
     
最近,有资深老师严厉的指出所贴上的厕所规则有些错误,如繁体字和错别字,所以我们收回改正。不过,这些都是无心之过。

所有的家长理事都同心协力,互相帮忙!

2。我们是很诚心的要提升厕所的卫生。

 红姐姐剧场那晚,有家长送孩子来学校,我刚好 站在门口,这位妈妈对我说:我孩子告诉我,厕所有比较干净了。 我还问:你的孩子是男的,还是 女的?妈妈说:男的。

 过后,我再询问其他同学,也有位女同学说:安娣,厕所是有比较干净了!

 所以,我才把这消息放上blog,和大家分享!希望家长有空时, 转告孩子,加以鼓励!孩子受到鼓励,必定更开心的去配合,这是难得的机会教育!


3。欢迎家长或老师提供意见,我们会尽力而为!

几个小垃圾桶几张贴在厕所的招贴   固然 不能改善厕所卫生  学生态度的变对改善厕所卫生:一定帮助

I would like to highlight here the efforts of the PIBG AJK to tackle the perennial problem of dirty toilets in the school.

After the 1st PIBG committee meeting :
1. After an inspection of the toilets with Assistant HM, Madam Tang, and discussion with the school cleaners, it was ascertained that besides the infrastructural problem ( eg low water pressure, faulty toilet flush, high students to toilet ratio), the main cause of dirty toilets is due to inappropriate usage of the toilets. Thus, we have taken the following measures to improve the cleanliness of the toilets.
a. Compiling the guidelines for proper usage of toilet facilities and together with the survey forms were distributed to parents to help educate the children on the matter. In order not to add to the burden of the teachers, the guidelines were done by the parents AJK.
b. Providing small trash bins for the disposal of sanitary towels
c. Repairing of broken locks on the toilet doors. Pasting the toilet guidelines in the toilets to remind the children to be civic conscious when using the toilets.

All the above measures are easily implemented and  are cost effective and  are not disruptive to the class lessons.
Recently we had to remove the guidelines from the toilets after an experienced teacher informed us that there are errors in using the simplified Mandarin words.

2. We are sincere in trying to improve the cleanliness of the school toilets.

After the Hong Jie Jie concert, I received some feedback from parents and students that the general cleanliness has improved slightly. Therefore, I decided to share this feedback on the blog so that parents and students alike would be encouraged and motivated to ensure the cleanliness of the school toilets.

3. We welcome any suggestions and feedback to further improve the cleanliness of the school toilets.

No doubt just by placing a few trash bins and pasting of toilet usage guidelines in the toilets will do little to improve the toilet cleanliness,  however we are hoping to change the attitudes of the children and we believe this little step will go a long way.

苏明进

刚在 Popular Empire买了一本 苏明进 (台湾)的书-希望教室, 忍不住要和大家分享 :

他任教于台中, 学生称他‘老苏’,喜欢和孩子打成一片,擅长站在孩子观点看孩子。

 他认为在课业的知识固然重要,但培养孩子健全的人格,懂得做人做事的道理,如:尊重他人,懂礼貌,有同理心,懂得感恩,鼓励他们阅读,开拓他们的视野。。。这些更重要。

 所以,他用自己的一套方法: 花非常多时间和孩子沟通,聊天,希望了解每个孩子的特质,才能用最适合的方式引导孩子。我看了他教孩子的方式,非常感动!

苏老师的贴心叮咛 :

1。 赞美的力量,比什么都强大!
2。 用‘阅读’治疗‘没有耐性,注意力不够集中’的孩子
3。教孩子学会反省自己的错误,远比处罚他有教育意义
4。 有激励去取代责备,效果永远会好上千万倍
5。 要教孩子,必须对自己的选择负责
6。我们要在乎的,不是孩子的成绩,而是孩子的学习态度

在这里,我要分享一个现实的故事。

儿子在幼儿园都讲英语,刚到力行读一年级时,每天回来都对我说:妈,我很忙!我听不懂,查看他的家课,原来他抄写华语是很困难,一个字,他要看几次,才能写完 (比如:’语‘ - 他把‘言“写在一行的最后一个字,”吾“写在另一行的第一个字)。

为了帮助他,我买了好多儿童故事书,一字一字读给他听。常对他说:华语是一个非常优秀的语文,尤其是成语,短短的四个子,包含许多意思。 刚好去中了国旅行时,买了一套儿童版的”中华五千年“的史记。他开始对华语故事书感兴趣!

当他埋怨老师不好,给太多功课时,我会对他说:儿子,好的老师才会给多功课,你只做一份,老师得改一班的做业,比你更辛苦!(后来,他在高一时讲了一样的话给四年级弟弟听)

儿子三年级就开始看中国’三国演义‘,里面的对白是有好多类似文言文的对话,也有好多策略,是一部好戏。我也介绍了不少经典故事:西游记,包青天。。

他只喜欢看不是学校课本的书,每天只管把功课做完,upsr 成绩平平,我耐心的等。

中学五年,他好动,只要是玩的,他都喜欢,足球,羽毛球,篮球,water polo ..
只要不是课本的知识,他都喜欢。 怎么办呢? 怎样让他静下读书呢?
我找了一些比较静的活动,比如:弹钢琴,写墨字 (自己也一起学,多话题沟通。)

PMR 拿了不错的成绩,让他信心大增。读了一点弟子规,我教他做人要虚心,不可太自满,加上英文老师多加鼓励下,SPM 也考得不错。

上到A-level,有一天,他说: 妈,原来我还没真正努力读书。我放心了,孩子终于长大了。
到现在,我强调读书成绩固然重要,但做人态度更重要 !

(文笔不是很好,请见谅)

红姐姐剧场天使棒不见了 – 过程和感言   21 sept 13


很开心在2013 新的家协成立后的短短两个月, 校长的支持, 我们有机会可以举办这个话剧。

一个多月前, 好不容易确认了印票和传单(副主席改了好多次),送到学校,嗯..等了几天,老师没 派,哦.. 原来没人分50张一叠,我赶紧去学校分好。

Janet 理事提议要把票做成书签, 因此Tiew 理事也花了一些时间,把票一张张切好。女儿帮忙把serial no 一个个印上去.. ,卉,Janet ,朋友,孩子们一起开工绑ribbon,忙得不亦乐乎。

接到老师的电话,很多老师已收到捐款,要索票,可是接近考试老师非常忙,我就自告奋勇找几位家长帮老师处理,不知不觉,当上了”票务组”。庆幸有个精明的卉(理事),只见她不费吹灰之力,不一下子,数字就整理好了。 主席也帮忙把收到的百多张支票输入电脑。理事们也帮忙把现金存入银行。

上星期,忽然 Mdm Loke 口中得知之前和老师看过的学校音响、灯光都不能用, 心里很着急,幸好红姐姐可以帮忙找到外租的音响、灯光。

剧场的前2天,校方也交代唯一的升降机也不能操作。想想沉重的灯光、音响、铁架,用人力慢慢的抬上三楼,也难为了负责音响的工作人员,辛苦了!

几位家长理事一早就到校,安排礼堂的椅子,红姐姐工作人员也赶紧set up 舞台。 女理事们不顾仪态,半蹲半爬的把椅子从礼堂台下的小室拉出来。虽然做得又脏又累,大家都很开心!我心里想 :真开心能认识您们。

压力越大,大家越合作,意志更坚定!

原本说好 彩排时间也得从2pm 改去3pm.可是紅姐姐整組的工作人員,包括司儀,演員,燈光及音響的 技術人員, 還有家長理事們,積極而有規律的把舞台和禮堂佈置好!

食堂两侧可通往礼堂的楼梯也被锁上了,只能用比较难行的停车场的楼梯,只见来宾们走到礼堂大门时,显得有点吃力!尤其是老人家,真是难为了.

我们看到孩子们都相当投入剧情,一会儿笑,一会儿手舞足蹈的跟着又唱又跳,甚至到最后,有些孩子和父母竟然感动落泪,这一切都是值得的 

感谢校长帮我们亲手移开grand piano, 给我们徵用美丽的学校礼堂, 老师们帮我们处理回条,宣传,更要谢谢捧场的董事董事,校友, 家长. 谢谢主席,副主席,全部家长理事的合作,毫无条件的付出。我很感恩,这是一个美好的回忆 !

唯一的遗憾是当晚校长和老师们无暇出席。

今晚从家长们听到的好消息:
1。厕所有比较干净了
2。几时再有红姐姐话剧呢 ?


The Magic Wand is missing -   the journey and some thoughts.                     
Thrilled that within the short period of two months from the formation of the PIBG committee, with the support of the headmaster we were given the opportunity to organize this musical drama.

After numerous rounds of editing by the timbalan ydp for the tickets and flyers, they were finally printed and sent to the school. After a few days of waiting when the flyers were not given out, I found out the problem. The flyers were not stacked up in 50's copies to be given out to each class. Off we went to the school to sort out the flyers.

Janet, one of the AJK suggested to make bookmarks out of the tickets. So, a few of the AJK's, Mr Tiew, Huey Huey, my daughter and some friends busied ourselves with stamping the serial numbers and tying ribbons on the tickets.

Subsequently, we were informed that the teachers would like to submit the contribution for the tickets and we gathered a few parents to set up the "ticket counter" in the staff room. We tallied the cheque and cash collection and helped banked in the collection.

Last week, we received news that the school's lighting and sound system cannot be utilized for the concert. Fortunately, we were able to source for the rental of the equipment.

We were informed 2 days before the show,  by the headmaster that the only lift is not functioning  and all the heavy equipment had to be lugged up three floors by pure muscle power. My heart goes out to the Hong Jie Jie personnel.

Early on the morning of the concert, a few of the parents were already in the school hall to facilitate the setting up of the stage by Hong Jie Jie personnel. The parents took the chairs from under the stage and arranged the chairs ourselves. By 2pm the stage is set for a rehearsal.

The main staircase near the canteen was locked and guests had to use the narrow staircase near the carpark.  We feel bad for the guests who arrived on the third floor puffing, especially the elderly.

Watching the expressions of the children, absorbed by the drama, participating in the drama by singing and in the finale where some are moved to tears, made it all worthwhile.

We are grateful to the headmaster for allowing us the use of the  school hall and for helping to remove the grand piano; the teachers for helping in the ticket collection, the ydp, timbalan ydp, all parents' AJK members for your selfless contribution. Most of all, we are grateful to the chairman of the School's Board of governor, alumni and parents for gracing the event with your presence.

The only regret is that the headmaster and teachers were unable to be present.

Some positive comments from parents :
1. School toilets are cleaner
2. When is the next concert?

中秋节快乐 Happy Mid-Autumn Festival







每年农历八月十五日,是传统的中秋佳节。这时是一年秋季的中期,所以被称为中秋八月十五的月亮比其他几个月的满月更圆,更明亮,所以又叫做月夕八月节

 Mid-Autumn Festival falling on the 15th day of the 8th month according to the  Chinese lunar calendar.   It takes its name from the fact that it is always celebrated in the middle of the autumn season. The day is also known as the Moon Festival, as at that time of the year the moon is at its roundest and brightest.
