- The key role of the Service Education Committee is to promote value education, including
(1)serving others with needs/difficulties;
(2)loving and caring for others and society, especially the vulnerable social groups.
- Through active participation in community services and making contributions to the community, our students are expected to gain a lot, e.g. enhancing their self-confidence, self-esteem and sense of achievement.
- Besides, our students are also expected to gain in different ways through service education, including:
(1) broadening their horizons and enriching their other learning experiences;
(2) developing their potential and leadership;
(3) enhancing their personal effectiveness competencies (e.g. self-understanding and human relations) and lifelong learning competencies (e.g. communication and information processing);
(4) delivering valued messages of cultural harmony between the Chinese and the non-Chinese so as to develop a caring and harmonious community.
Ultimately students can also:
- learn different generic skills;
- realise the value of their role in society;
- understand the importance of uniqueness and diversity among people, and the value of serving the community; and
- become active and responsible citizens of tomorrow
