To celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the People’s Republic of China and the 25th Anniversary of the Macao SAR, Moon Chun Memorial College and Choi Kai Yau College co-organized a music appreciation lecture titled “MCMC x CKYC Musicales – Yellow River Cantata Music Appreciation lecture” on September 23, 2024 (Monday).

The guest speaker of the lecture is Dr. Zhou Zidong, Associate Professor of Wuhan Conservatory of Music. Professor Zhou introduced the “Yellow River Cantata” in different aspects, including the historical background, composing and performing details, musical structure and style, and different versions. Apart from the “Yellow River Cantata,” Professor Zhou also discussed other repertoires of the Sino-Japanese War, such as the patriotic song “Mayflower” (music by Guang Weiran; lyrics by Yan Shushi), the “Yellow River Piano Concerto” (arranged by Yin Chengzong and Chu Wanghua), and analyzed the passionate and patriotic elements in the musical works.

為慶祝中華人民共和國成立75周年和澳門特別行政區成立25周年，滿珍紀念書院與蔡繼有書院於2024年9月23日（星期一）晚上8時合辦黃河大合唱音樂欣賞講座。

是次講座由武漢音樂學院周紫東副教授主講，向觀眾介紹抗日戰爭時期的救亡歌曲《黃河大合唱》的歷史背景、創作及演出過程、作品組成、音樂風格及創作版本。除《黃河大合唱》以外，周紫東教授亦介紹了抗戰歌曲《五月的鮮花》 (詞：光未然、曲：閻述詩)、改編自《黃河大合唱》的《黃河鋼琴協奏曲》(曲：殷承宗、儲望華等)，並分析音樂作品中呈示的激烈情感及愛國情懷。

On June 16–26, 2024, a group of eleven students and one staff member from Choi Kai Yau College (CKYC) of the University of Macau (UM) volunteered to teach at Xiushui County No. 2 Primary School in Jiangxi Province. As part of this volunteer teaching program, college students taught the pupils in the daytime as well as participated in team reflections in the evening. They actively discussed pedagogy and content, encouraged each other, and continuously improved their methods. UM students also engaged with the teachers at the No.2 primary school, enhancing their understanding of pupils and maximising the impact of their teaching.

During PE classes, students taught the children how to form lines and jump rope, which improved their teamwork and coordination. Through art classes, students taught children how to make intricate origami maple leaves and colorful fluid bears that foster their artistic creativity. In music classes, students taught children to play the recorder. The final day’s performances showcased the students’ learning achievements and joyful spirits, with melodies like “Jingle Bells” and “Ode to Joy” echoing through the campus.

In addition to teaching subjects, University of Macau students meticulously prepared presentations on Macau’s history, geography, and local customs. They introduced the children to various aspects of Macau and patiently answered their questions, planting seeds of curiosity about the wider world.

After the final talent show, students and teachers from Xiushui County No. 2 Primary School held a heartfelt farewell ceremony for the University of Macau volunteers. The children made their own greeting cards and flowers. The primary school teachers also delivered sincere and moving speeches, expressing gratitude for UM students’ knowledge and joy. This compassionate journey not only opened doors to knowledge for the children but also built bridges of friendship between students from different regions. Several expressed their hope that education and spreading this love would continue.

The leading staff of the group, non-resident fellow of CKYC and professor of ICMS, Zheng Ying, said: “Xiushui County, Jiangxi Province is a designated target for Macau’s assistance. I hope that in the future, Macao will have an increased number of capable and caring students, teachers, and social forces to continue volunteer teaching and other activities over there.”

Lam Tai Man, a freshman from the volunteer teaching team, reflected, ‘Two weeks may be short, but a lifetime is long. Although we couldn’t impart all knowledge in two weeks, we aimed to instill reverence and enthusiasm for learning. While two weeks can’t change a person’s entire life, we aim to ignite courage and perseverance in pursuing dreams. Education’s essence lies in one tree swaying another, one cloud propelling another, and one soul awakening another. May we all become gentle breezes, stirring more dormant hearts.’

Wang Yuhuan, another freshman, shared, ‘During this time, I felt compelled to make up for regrets from my own student days. I wanted to fulfill the requests I once made as an unnoticed student and become the kind of teacher I admired. Two weeks may be brief, but I hope to bring joy and music to these children.’

Zhao Yushi, a junior, reflected on the deep connections she formed with the children in just ten days. Teaching and learning came hand in hand, and volunteering enhanced her personal abilities. Even after just one class, the children remembered our names and greeted us enthusiastically every day.”

2024年6月16日至6月26日，澳門大學蔡繼有書院師生帶著愛心與責任，前往江西省修水縣第二小學開展了為期十一天的暑期支教活動。通過這次義教，書院院生們鍛鍊了自己的社區服務能力，也大大提升了領導力、團隊合作能力以及社會責任感。書院師生們除了白天教學，也在每天晚上進行團隊總結和反思。大家積極交流討論教學方法和教學內容，互相鼓勵，提出建議並且不斷優化改進。此外，澳大同學們積極與二小教師對接，增加對學生們的認識與瞭解，努力做到教學成果最大化。

活力課堂，寓教於樂: 在體育課上，同學們教授了孩子們隊列和跳大繩，鍛煉了他們的團隊協作能力和身體協調性。美術課上，同學們帶領孩子們製作了精美的折紙楓葉和色彩斑斕的流體熊，培養了他們的動手能力和藝術創造力。音樂課上，同學們教授了孩子們吹奏豎笛，並在最後一天的彙報演出上，每個班級都帶來了精彩的表演，悠揚的《鈴兒響叮噹》和歡快的《歡樂頌》樂曲在校園裏回蕩，展現了孩子們的學習成果和快樂心情，給此次義教活動劃上了圓滿的句號。 文化交流，開拓視野: 除了教授基礎課程，澳大學生們還精心準備了澳門文化介紹，通過圖文並茂的形式，向孩子們展示了澳門的歷史、地理、風土人情等，並耐心解答了孩子們關於澳門的各種問題，在孩子們心中埋下了了解外部世界的種子。

愛心傳遞，難說再見: 匯演結束後，修水縣二小的師生們為澳大學生們舉行了充滿溫情的歡送儀式。孩子們將親手製作的賀卡和鮮花送到每一位老師手中，稚嫩的臉上寫滿了不舍。二小的老師也發表了真摯感人的致辭，感謝澳大學生們帶來的知識和快樂。 這趟愛心之旅，不僅為孩子們打開了知識的大門，也為兩地師生之間架起了友誼的橋樑。 同學們紛紛表示，希望未來能將這份愛心繼續傳遞下去，將助學行動堅持下去。

義教團帶隊教師蔡繼有書院非駐院導師及中華醫藥研究院教授鄭穎表示：“江西修水縣是澳門的定點幫扶對象，希望在未來，澳門能有更多有能力和愛心的同學，老師和社會力量，持續加入到義教活動中，多方面創造條件，給修水的孩子們提供更加豐富多彩的全人教育和素質教育。

大一的林泰民同學說:  “兩周的時間很短，一生的時間卻很長。兩周可能無法傳遞全部的知識，但我們希望能帶去對知識的敬畏和熱情；兩周可能無法徹底消除迷茫，但是我們希望能帶去歡笑與感動；兩周可能無法改變人的一生，但我們希望能帶來追逐夢想與奔赴遠方的勇氣和毅力。“教育的本質是一棵樹搖動另一棵樹，一朵雲推動另一朵雲，一個靈魂喚醒另一個靈魂。”風吹樹動，願你我都能化為輕風，搖動更多沉睡的心靈。”

大一的王鈺歡同學說:  “在這段時間裏，我似乎總想著彌補我學生時代的遺憾，試圖滿足我做學生時不被留意的請求，試圖成為我學生時代時最喜歡的老師的模樣。兩周很短，但我希望我帶給他們的不止快樂，還能讓他們感受到音樂的魅力。”

大三的趙語時同學說:  “雖然只有短短十天的時間，卻早已與孩子們產生了深厚的感情。教學相長，支教的過程中也提升了個人的能力。僅僅一節課的時間，孩子們就能記住我們的名字，每天同我們熱情地️打招呼，真的是一件非常幸福的事。”

Choi Kai Yau College of the University of Macau, together with the Chung Chi College of The Chinese University of Hong Kong, and Muse College of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen), jointly organized the second “FC Lo Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Study Tour” from 20-30 May 2024. This programme provided a crucial platform for over 70 students and teachers from the three colleges to gain in-depth understanding of the past and future development of the Greater Bay Area (GBA), while also demonstrating the intensification of the close communication and cooperation between UM and the two universities in the GBA.

During the study tour, participants from the three universities visited seven cities in the region – in sequence, Shenzhen, Dongguan, Guangzhou, Zhongshan, Zhuhai, Macau and Hong Kong – attending different lectures and seminars. They visited urban planning exhibitions and history museums in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao to understand the urban development and cultural history of the Greater Bay Area; industry-leading enterprises such as Huawei, BYD and BGI to deeply explore innovative technological development in the “Silicon Delta”; and renowned universities such as the University of Macau, the two CUHK campuses in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, and Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou for in-depth exchanges with local teachers and students.

The students and teachers from the three colleges remarked that the study tour was a wonderful opportunity for them to learn about the rapid and booming development of the Greater Bay Area, and to personally experience the tightly interconnected nature of the GBA cities, enabling them to not only gain a comprehensive understanding of the present situation and future prospects for regional development but also enhance the interaction and collaboration among members of the three universities in Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Macao. It will inspire them to be actively engaged in making important contributions to the coordinated development of the Greater Bay Area in the future.

The study tour was sponsored by a renowned patriotic entrepreneur Mr. Lo Foo Cheung. He has paid close attention to the GBA’s regional development, and has been actively engaged in the economic and industrial development of our country. Mr. Lo aimed to enable more and more students to learn about the GBA and broaden their horizons through immersive city tours and interactions that offer opportunities for exchange; and at the same time to enhance their mutual understanding and cultivate friendships, nurturing a fresh force for the GBA’s development in the future.

In a pioneering initiative aimed at fostering deeper connections between academia and cultural understanding, Choi Kai Yau College at the University of Macau successfully hosted the concluding session of this year’s “The Development of City and Culture Exchange Program”. From January 15th to 19th, the event brought together students and staff from prestigious institutions across the mainland, marking a significant milestone in the program’s history.

Launched in October 2018, the collaborative exchange program saw the inception of a unique partnership among Fengru College of Beihang University, Meng Xiancheng College of East China Normal University and Choi Kai Yau College of University of Macau. This collaboration was further strengthened in the spring of 2019 with the addition of Chongshi College of Xi’an Jiaotong University, culminating in a comprehensive four-college alliance. The initiative has been designed to promote cultural exchanges across the diverse geographic landscape of the nation, aptly named the “Four Seasons, Four Colleges Exchange Program.” This program underscores the commitment to exploring the rich tapestry of China’s cultural heritage through seasonal visits to each partnering college.

A pivotal moment of the program was the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding on January 16th, signifying the commitment to a focused project on The Development of City and Culture Exchange Program “encompassing Beijing, Shanghai, Xi’an, and Macau”. This ceremony not only marked the commencement of a new phase in the collaboration but also highlighted the participating colleges’ dedication to cultivating a nurturing environment for educational excellence and cultural exchange.

Throughout the five-day exchange, participants were immersed in a series of activities designed to enhance their understanding of Macau’s unique cultural landscape. They toured the University of Macau’s facilities, including cutting-edge research labs, as well as the university library and gallery, offering insights into the UMRC’s whole person educational philosophy. The program also included hands-on environmental conservation efforts and explorations of Macau’s historical sites, allowing students to connect with the locale’s rich heritage and contemporary challenges.

The exchange culminated in a vibrant New Year celebration, uniting participants in a festive acknowledgment of the Chinese New Year of the Dragon. This event served not only as a cultural exchange but also as a celebration of the friendships and connections forged throughout the program. The poignant farewell, underscored by a collective performance of “gān bēi shí wǒ huì xiǎng qǐ nǐ” symbolized the participants’ hope for future reunions and continued collaboration.

This initiative underscores the importance of inter-collegiate exchanges in enhancing students’ educational experiences, fostering a deeper understanding of cultural diversity, and building lasting international relationships. As the program looks toward its next phase, the participating colleges remain committed to expanding these opportunities, further bridging the gap between cultural heritage and academic exploration.

1月16日，「城市與文化發展—聚焦北京、上海、西安與澳門」計畫合作備忘錄簽署儀式在澳門大學蔡繼有書院進行，澳門大學蔡繼有書院院長梁美兒、華東師範大學孟憲承書院黨委書記兼院長吳薇、北京航空航天大學馮如書院執行院長李俊良、西安交通大學崇實書院院務副主任段繼超，分別代表四家書院共同簽署了新一輪項目合作協議，標誌著四地書院的實踐育人合作交流進入新發展階段。

五天的交流期間，四地同學一行參觀了澳大校園，包括澳門大學微電子國家重點實驗室，澳門大學大數據與物聯網國家重點實驗室，大學圖書館，大學展館等，了解了大學四位一體、以學生為本的全人教育理念。此外，同學們還跟隨澳門綠色未來協會在路環海灘參與了撿垃圾淨灘活動，在澳門口述歷史協會導賞下參訪了澳門軍事遺跡。四地同學於本次行程分為五組，分別為自然澳門、葡韻澳門、娛樂澳門、澳門之味以及家國情懷。在蔡繼有書院同學的帶領下，同學們以不一樣的角度了解認識澳門，體驗澳門獨有景色，品嚐特色美食，觀賞世遺景點，感受澳門風情，並了解背後的歷史與文化。四間書院師生還一起舉辦了新春聯歡晚會，共同慶祝龍年春節。

通過一起走過的充實行程、交流了解中的互相認識，同學們帶着不捨的心情來到第五天的結營儀式中。儀式上，同學們訴說自己來澳幾天的感想，對澳門這座小城的印象，和與大家建立的深刻友誼。

在結營儀式的最後，師生們合唱《乾杯時我會想起你》，載歌載舞。雖然大家心中充滿了離別的不捨，但臉上都洋溢著笑容，期盼春天在上海再次相聚。

Choi Kai Yau College students recently participated in a rowing experience event at the Hengqin Tianmu River Rowing Park. A professional coaching team demonstrated the techniques of rowing, providing detailed guidance to the participants. Students learned how to feather the oars, coordinate their strokes, and maintain balance, which proved to be a challenge for those who were trying rowing for the first time. However, they overcame the difficulties with enthusiasm and courage, gradually mastering the skills of rowing.

One excited student exclaimed, “rowing is an exhilarating sport! When I first started rowing and the boat glided across the water, I felt the speed and power, and it was truly thrilling. Throughout the process, I also learned about teamwork, working closely with my team and making collective efforts.” This rowing experience not only allowed the students to enjoy the fun of water sports but also cultivated their teamwork, patience, and self-confidence. It is believed that this experience will enhance their passion for sports and have a positive impact on their personal growth.

同學興奮地表示: “划艇是一項令人振奮的運動！當我第一次划槳，艇滑行在水面上，我感受到了速度和力量，這讓我非常興奮。在這個過程中，我也學會了團隊合作，在隊中與同學們緊密合作，共同努力。” 這次划艇體驗活動不僅讓學生們感受到了水上運動的樂趣，還培養了他們的團隊合作、耐心和自信心。相信這次體驗能提高他們對運動的熱情，並對成長產生積極的影響。

Choi Kai Yau College of the University of Macau invited the International Negotiation and Mediation Society Macau and organized a “Mediation Workshop” for student leaders to share professional knowledge and practical experience on January 7th.

Mediation is a method of non-litigation dispute resolution that helps both parties reach a voluntary settlement agreement with the help of a third party. Mediation is widely used in business, family, labor, the community and other fields. It can save time, cost and effort, while protecting both parties’ privacy and relationship. The workshop covered basic mediation concepts, principles, procedures, and techniques, along with some college students’ conflict case studies. The instructor Simon Yeung explained mediation’s strengths and how it can be used to resolve a variety of conflicts and disputes to the student leaders with vivid language and rich case studies.

The College student leaders gave positive feedback about the workshop, considering it a rare opportunity for learning and exchange, as well as an exercise to enhance their leadership and communication abilities. They said they would be able to apply the mediation skills and knowledge they learned in their studies to their lives and jobs, as well as contribute to the harmony and development of the College and society in general.
