聖誕系列活動包含三個部分:

第一部分是跨國傳心意。Christmas cards to Philippines Friends 

外師 Judy 的妹妹是一位在菲律賓任教的國中老師。這次我們透過 Judy 搭起了聯繫的橋樑，邀請本校四到六年級的學生寫卡片，寄給菲律賓的國中生，進行一場溫馨的跨國交流。在準備卡片的過程中，當學生們得知菲律賓的國中生從 12 月 20 幾號就開始放起長～～～長的耶誕假期時，現場立刻響起一陣「也太幸福了吧！」的驚呼，羨慕之情全寫在臉上啦！

 🎄 Christmas Series Events

Our Christmas celebration was full of joy, warmth, and creativity! It included three parts:

📬 Part 1: Christmas Cards to Friends in the Philippines

Our foreign teacher Judy helped build a special connection—her sister is a junior high school teacher in the Philippines. With her help, we invited our 4th to 6th graders to write Christmas cards to students there. It was a lovely way to share holiday spirit through an international exchange.

While preparing the cards, our students were amazed to learn that Filipino students start their Christmas break in late December—and it lasts a looooong time! The whole room burst into surprised laughter and envy, with lots of “So lucky!” comments!

來自菲律賓的溫暖問候與回饋。

第二部分是聖誕樂韻，舞動新生。 Dancing Santa with Christmas carol performence  

本次活動亦結合校內英語歌唱比賽一同辦理。英語教師精心挑選多首英文歌曲提供各班導師挑選，並由導師協助訓練學生演唱，讓孩子們在過程中提升語感與自信。比賽當日，學生登台演出，由科任老師與主任組成的專業評審團進行評分並頒發獎項。活動詳情請參閱「耶誕頌歌比賽」專頁。

除耶誕頌歌比賽外，本活動亦融入才藝發表，讓新生的孩子把握這個全校團聚的歡樂時刻，盡情展現活力與創意，秀出專屬於自己的才藝與自信！

🎶 Part 2: Dancing Santa and Christmas Carol Performance

This event was held together with our school’s English Singing Contest. English teachers carefully picked several English songs for each class to choose from and helped students practice their singing. The goal was to help students feel more confident and enjoy using English.

On the performance day, students sang on stage. Some teachers and school directors were the judges. They gave prizes to the best teams. (You can read more on our Christmas Carol Contest page!)

We also had a talent show! This gave students a chance to stand on stage, show their creativity , and have fun with everyone during this happy time.

不只活動豐富，學校的布置也充滿巧思，還有耶誕打卡景點。

第三部分是歲末感恩，跳蚤市場。 Flea market 

一般而言，聖誕節常舉辦交換禮物活動，以增添節慶氛圍。然而，由於本校位處偏鄉地區，學生家庭背景多元，若辦理交換禮物，實施上易產生困難，難以兼顧公平與參與感。因此，我們以跳蚤市場作為替代方案，既能延續「禮物交換」（Gift Exchange）的核心精神，也能讓學生透過物資分享，培養珍惜物品與資源再利用的觀念。跳蚤市場的舉辦，不僅富有教育意涵，更適切地回應本校實際情況，為整個聖誕系列活動畫下溫馨且圓滿的句點。

♻️ Part 3: Year-End Thanks with a Flea Market

Usually, schools do a gift exchange at Christmas to make it more fun. But since our school is in a rural area and students have different family situations, doing a gift exchange could be difficult and not fair for everyone.

So, we had a flea market instead! This idea kept the spirit of giving, but in a way that worked better for our school. Students brought things they no longer used and shared them with others. Through this, they learned how to value their things and think about reusing and sharing.

The flea market was full of love and meaning. It matched our school’s needs and gave a warm, thoughtful ending to our Christmas celebrations.

🎄✨ 聖誕在心中，溫暖在行動
從跨國送心意、歌聲與舞動，到溫暖的分享跳蚤市場，這一連串的聖誕活動不只讓校園充滿節慶歡樂，更讓孩子們學會了語言、展現了自信，也用行動實踐了感恩與分享的精神。

我們相信，最美的耶誕禮物，不是包裝精美的盒子，而是一顆願意關心別人、勇於表達、樂於分享的心。

From sending cards across borders, to singing, dancing, and a meaningful flea market, our Christmas celebration brought joy to the campus—and gave students the chance to learn, shine, and show love through action.

We believe the best Christmas gift isn't in a fancy box, but in a heart that cares, shares, and dares to express joy.
