Visit to Chao Kuang Piu College by the Macau Down Syndrome Association

澳門唐心兒協會到訪曹光彪書院

澳門大學曹光彪書院自2020年起與澳門唐心兒協會建立夥伴關係,目的是透過義工的服務為唐寶寶和家人帶去溫暖和陪伴。過往,書院多次與唐寶寶舉行共融活動,內容涵蓋手工藝術品製作、身體律動、戶外郊遊等。

本學年作為總結活動,書院邀請唐寶寶和家人到訪。除了實地參觀義工哥哥姐姐的生活和住宿環境,也與他們交流互動。他們一行30多人於上週末到訪W31。首先,由曹光彪書院劉潤東院長致歡迎辭,並贈送紀念品予協會會長劉笑歡女士。接着,唐寶寶在義工的帶領下進行熱身活動,包括身體律動和走圈圈互相認識。熱身過後,義工帶領他們進行參觀,向他們介紹了書院的多功能室、音樂室、健身房及書院品牌無限咖啡及貪食角落。隨後唐寶寶分成了三組,分別進行拼接積木相框、拉花體驗及溫馨家庭照拍攝的活動。活動結束後,唐寶寶一起品嚐由貪食角落準備的手工曲奇,並分享感受。他們表示,和家人都玩得不亦樂乎。其中他們與家人拼接的積木相框是提前送給媽媽的母親節禮物,場面十分溫馨。他們同時感謝書院是次安排。

協會劉會長表示,十分感謝書院及義工對唐寶寶持續的關心與付出,未來雙方均期待更多的合作與交流。

 

Since 2020, Chao Kuang Piu College has been working closely with the Macau Down Syndrome Association, aiming to bring warmth and company to children with Down syndrome and their families. In the previous years, the College has held a number of inclusive activities with the buddies, including handicraft making, body exercises and outdoor activities.

This year, our volunteers invited the buddies and their families to pay a visit to the College as a closing activity. A group of more than 30 people from the Association visited the College at W31 last weekend and interacted with our volunteers. First, College Master Dr. Lau gave a welcome speech and presented some souvenirs to the President of the Association Ms. Lau. After that, the buddies were led by volunteers to do warm-up activities, including body rhythm and walking in circles to get to know each other. After the warm-up, the volunteers took them on a tour and introduced them to the multi-purpose room, music room, gym and the College’s student brands Infinite Coffee and Foodie Corner. After the tour, the buddies were divided into three groups to work on a building block photo frame, Latte Art and family photo shoot respectively. After the activities, the buddies had a taste of the handmade cookies prepared by Foodie Corner and shared their feelings. They said they had a great time with their families. They liked the block building photo frames which are indeed early gifts for their mommies for Mother’s Day. They also thanked the College for the arrangements.

Ms. Lau also expressed her gratitude to the College and the volunteers for their continuous care and dedication to the Down syndrome buddies. Both parties look forward to more cooperation in the future.
