二月 • 愛心月


i-Learner is organising a series of activities in February. Join us! Spread love!

February 2015A Month of Love
二月 · 愛心月
1)Teachers Seminars
On our experience helping people around the world:
     -- Ms. Willow will talk about her experience of helping children in Madagascar
     -- Mr. Adam will share his experience of helping mentally ill patients in Japan
     -- Ms. Stephanie Lui will introduce the ‘We Will Fly Project’, which has been supported by i-Learner for 3 years

2)Exhibition -- Treasure 
In February, you will see eight exhibition boards under the title of ‘Treasure’ in the parents’ corridor and Room Four. This exhibition, held by the Society for Community Organisation (SOCO) (www.soco.org.hk), shows stories of underprivileged children in Hong Kong. Just a short time perusing the boards serves as a reminder to the ways less fortunate people live, and underlines the importance of compassion. Books published by SOCO are also displayed in the corridor and are for sale. All the proceeds will be donated to SOCO to support their continued efforts.

3)Charity Sales to express our love
In order to send blessings to children in rural mountain areas in China, you can join with the Institute for Integrated Rural Development (IRD) (www.harvest.org.hk), a Hong Kong charity organization serving poor villages in rural China, and become a fundraising ambassador for the Chinese New Year ‘Fai Chun’ Charity Sales. By selling just 10 sets of specially designed ‘Fai Chun’, you can help less fortunate children to continue with their studies.


If you are interested in joining our fundraiser, return this slip to your teachers and go to i-Learner front desk to get a donation folder from Cynthia, Kelvin or Claire. Once you’ve done this, you are ready to share your love! All donations and donation folders should be returned to Cynthia, Kelvin or Claire on or before 28th February (Saturday). A certificate of recognition will be given for your great effort and kindness.

Hong Kong Mouse

It was a writing lesson. We were learning writing with a structure and the topic was Italy.

'Italy has some of the most beautiful cities in the world. Rome, Florence, Milan...'
'Sorry, Ms Pun, I think Milan is a shop,' said Tara.

Oh yes, Milan is a shop in Hong Kong!

But Tara, I also want you to know that Milan is a city in Italy, I want you to know the beauty of the Duomo in Milan, the secret of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the magnificent buildings in Rome and the Flower of Lily in Florence...
