ABOUT US／關於我們
Our Mission
In accordance with the comprehensive educational philosophy of Tzu Chi’s leader, Master Cheng Yen, we aim to cultivate our students’ senses of compassion and giving, as well as to integrate Chinese learning and character education in order to build a solid foundation for their futures.
Our Goals
Our goal is to teach students more than just Chinese but also to provide humanistic cultural education to further cultivate good ethics, values, and interpersonal skills. We advocate for our students to practice life etiquette and social responsibility by applying “gratitude, respect, love” in their daily life.
What Makes Us Unique
The unique “Jing-Si Aphorism Teaching” plants the seeds of kindness in the heart at an early age. This education from the “heart” is guided by wisdom, so children can learn contentment, gratitude, understanding, and tolerance in order to awaken the conscience, goodness, and love for themself, others, and the environment. The wide range of contents covers etiquette education (i.e. good habits), character education (i.e. honesty and good deeds), life education (i.e. respect and filial piety), and environmental protection education (i.e. cherishing resources). In addition to regular classes, students also have opportunities to volunteer at senior residences, community distributions, disaster relief fundraising, and other public welfare activities that will help them to cultivate their compassion and kindness, and to develop the habit of giving back to society at a young age.
辦學宗旨
秉持慈濟創辦人證嚴法師全人教育的理念，由「心」出發，以慈悲喜捨的精神，誠正信實的態度，將「人文教育」與「語文教育」結合。
辦學目標
目標在教導海外學子，除了學習中文外，也讓孩子接受優良傳統文化的薰陶，進一步培養正確的倫理、道德觀念及為人處事的原則。提倡生活禮儀課程，讓學生均能體會「感恩、尊重、愛」的生命真諦。進而在他們的成長過程中，將人文教育的內涵潛移默化，應用於日常生活中。
特色
獨特的「靜思語教學」將善的種子在幼小時就深植心中，希望從「心」教育，以智慧為導向，讓孩童學習知足ヽ感恩ヽ善解ヽ包容，啟發良知、良能與愛心。內容包涵廣泛，由生活教育 (如: 禮儀ヽ好習慣養成)ヽ品格教育 (如: 誠實ヽ行善)ヽ生命教育(如: 尊重ヽ孝順) 到環保教育 (如: 珍惜資源)。除平常課程外，孩童也有機會訪視長者公寓ヽ社區發放ヽ賑災募款等公益活動，培養悲心善念，自小養成回饋社會的習慣。
