The theme for this month is ‘Fulfill responsibilities, strive for self-improvement’. I am sure we hear these words on a daily basis: Be responsible, if you are not, then you cannot improve. Yet, there seems to be so many responsibilities as we wear many hats in our lives, so it is not always that easy […]

Christy: Hey, Harvey, why do you look so happy. What’s going on? Did you finally finish your Christmas shopping? Harvey: Nope, not even close. But I am feeling joyful because it’s Gaudete Sunday yesterday —also known as the Sunday of Joy! Christy: Oh, that makes sense! The Third Sunday of Advent is all about joy.

Good morning. Yesterday we celebrated Founders Day and you heard the sharing from Ms Amy Yeung, a graduate of Shung Tak in 1974. Amy today is very active in our school, coming back not just for the sharing yesterday but she also helps with the calligraphy interest classes. Amy is a beautiful example of what

Good morning, we are the representatives of the History Club. The theme for this month is “Caring campus, harmonious society”. Today, let’s focus on the idea of a harmonious society. In a harmonious society, people live with affection, gratitude and respect for one another, and solve the dissensions in a peaceful way rather than through

Good morning everyone. In every November, the Caritas holds charity bazaars on Sundays in different districts to raise money for the needy. We had some teachers and students participated in this event yesterday. It is really appreciated that so many of you chose to spend your Sunday on social service. It was hot and a

Good morning, we are Campus TV.  Sometimes it feels like a challenge to protect the world. With the damage we have caused, it seems like the work that we need to do would never end. Some may say it is impossible to make a big change to our environment, but we have to try to

早晨。生態保育可說是今日社會經常談論的課題，而早在幾百年前，天主教會亦已有一位聖人——聖方濟‧亞西西（St. Francis of Assisi），他於1979年獲時任教宗若望保祿二世奉為「生態主保」，恰巧今天正是他的紀念日，讓我們了解一下他對大自然的看法。 聖方濟一生愛主愛人，過著神貧的生活，而他對大自然的熱愛更為天主教生態觀提供了很多的啟發。一首〈萬物讚頌歌〉正反映出他對大自然的喜愛之情。聖方濟視大自然為弟兄姊妹，是一家人，彼此都是天主所創造的，都是天主所喜愛的。在作品中，他稱自然萬物為兄弟姊妹，從日、月、星辰，風、水、火、土，花、草、樹、木，到海裡的魚、天空的鳥、地上的走獸、地下的生物，只要是天主創造的，都視他們為姊妹弟兄，更邀請他們一起讚美天主，他認為萬物眾生，包括我們人類，都是平等的，都是一家人，這種想法可以令人對大自然多添一份愛，學會尊重和欣賞它。 反觀今天，我們又如何對待大自然呢？過渡消費、浪費資源等成為了我們恆常的習慣，而世界亦出現了溫室效應、厄爾尼諾等現象。但其實環境被破壞，受苦的到頭來亦都是我們人類。因此，正如昨天同學的分享中也提及，要好好保護環境，「再用、再造、再節約」3R必不可少。 最後，但願我們可以效法聖人，當好地球的管家，尊重和愛護大自然，學習與它共處，返璞歸真，使地球重新成為一個宜居的安身之所。   Ms. WY Lam

今個月的分享主題是「仁者自愛，力臻美善」，在開始我的分享之前，我想請同學檢視一下自己的站姿，是否端正？有沒有將身體傾向某一邊？同學的手有沒有放好？仍然好像很有型般插在褲袋中？還是「翹埋雙手」？桌面上的課本筆記合上了沒有？祈禱手冊準備好了麼？在早會站好、專注是學生應盡的本分，顯示對講者，對場合的尊重，亦是自重的表現，理應不需要提醒。能自重即代表你能自愛。   「仁者自愛」一語出自《論語‧孔子家語‧三恕》。有一次孔子向學生提問：有仁德的人，到底應有何表現？子路答道：「仁者使人愛己。」認為仁者應能讓別人愛護自己；子貢答道：「仁者愛人。」認為仁者應懂得愛護別人；顏回答道：「仁者自愛。」認為有仁德的人應該愛惜自己。對於三位弟子的回答，孔子最認同顏回的說法，人能夠做到自愛，才算是真正明白道理的君子。傳統的儒家思想認為由天子到庶民，都應以修身為本，惟有做好個人本分，懂得自愛、自律、自重，然後才可推己及人，懂得愛人、助人，使天下止於至善。   到底怎樣才能做到自愛呢？當然不單愛惜身體那麼簡單。孔子特別重視學生從「德」和「學」這兩方面加強，一個人如果品行有虧，私德有損，見識短淺，試問又怎可以自立自強？如果我們注重自己的品德修養，會不時對個人、對生活加以反省，勤於改正自己的缺點，遇到不如意事，就不會只一味推卸責任、苛責別人，反而會懂得體諒和寬恕，人與人之間自然能減少許多紛擾和怨恨，關係自然更加和諧美好。當學生的，準時上學是你們應盡的責任，遲到時應該認真檢討原因，而非怪責輕鐵脫班、不滿太多人排隊乘電梯，或是埋怨家人在早上霸佔著洗手間而遲到。又例如在一個團隊中，每個人都做好自己應做的本分和責任，互相支持，萬一遇上狀況都不會發生互相推搪指罵的情況。我相信如大家能夠事事求諸己，時刻反省，努力做好自身，你的品德有所改善之餘，學業成績定會有所提升。如果連自己本分也做不好，還如何期望有能力去兼顧身邊人？這好比一個體弱多病的人，一心想救急扶危，只能徒嘆力不從心了。   剛開學不久，望各位同學能立志做個自愛的仁者，成為一個更好的人。   Ms. KY Wong

Good morning to you all. I am happy to share with you on this special day: it’s Day 1 of the first cycle, and I hope all of you are ready to attend classes. Let’s start our morning sharing with a question. What kind of person do you think you are? In our last round

Good morning. Let me first welcome our new S1 students and welcome back to everyone else.   The theme for the month of September is ‘Cherish oneself, strive for goodness’.   So let us examine the word: ‘cherish’. This word means to love. So, cherish oneself means to love oneself. We need to be thankful
