Science Days for Primary Schools

The school has organized 3 science days for 3 primary schools. The first two have been conducted on 14/10 and 21/10 and the last one will be on 28/10. Participating schools are Kowloon Rhenish School, Chan's Creative School and Kau Yan School. Here attached a student's sharing.

這是我第一次參加科學日，起初也十分緊張，不知道小六的學生會怎樣，又擔心自己應付不來。但另一方面，我又很期待與他們愉快相處的時刻。
這一天，最令我深刻的是，我成為了四個小六學生的姐姐，整天都和他們一起。他們年紀雖少，但看著他們第一次進行實驗、討論、勇於發問及回答，也頭頭是道。可見他們是經過細心思考，不是草草了事。另外，可能只是小小的發現，甚至是十分平淡的劃火柴，但在他們臉上，會經常看見像是發現了新大陸一般興奮、快樂！他們對科學探究的那份好奇心、投入，正正是我開始慢慢遺忘的，漸漸失去的。
開心的時光總是過得特別快，雖然短短相處了一天，大家都建立了不少感情，離開一刻也依依不捨！
經過這次科學日，我除了服務了四個小學生外，其實我得著的更多！在他們身上我學習了很多，也提醒了我。我要重拾那份對任何事都好奇的心，經過細心思考、勇敢的發問和回答精神，享受科學探究過程的趣味……
