【𝐖𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲-𝐨𝐧𝐞-𝐭𝐨-𝐛𝐞! 我哋喺準小一生啦！】

Time flies! ⏰ For the coming September, we'll be Primary One students! 🎉

We know that studying in primary school is a brand-new adventure, so different from kindergarten! 🌟
Our teachers have prepared a "Primary One Preparation Course" 📚 to help us get ready and experience what primary school will be like. 🏫

I didn’t know that I will have so many different subjects in primary school! 📖 There is even a playground to play with my classmates during breaks! ⚽🎠

In every preparation class, our teachers taught with so much care, spotting areas we need to work on and share tips with our parents. 👩‍🏫💡 We can practice at home, and we will be super prepared before school starts. 💪

Big thanks to our CDC teachers for their hard work! 🙌 We will apply everything we have learned in primary school! 🚀

話咁快，九月我哋就係小一生啦！⏰🎉 我哋知道小學係全新嘅大冒險，同幼稚園嘅上課模式好唔同！🌟
老師為咗幫我哋get ready，準備咗「小一預備班」📚，提早俾我哋體驗小學上課嘅情況。🏫
原來小學會學到咁多唔同科目！📖 小息仲可以同同學去操場玩添！⚽🎠
每堂預備班，老師都好用心教我哋👩‍🏫，好細心咁留意我哋需要加強嘅地方，之後同爸爸媽媽分享💡，等我哋喺正式開學前準備得好啲。💪
多謝老師嘅心機🙌，我哋會將學到嘅喺小學學以致用，番學就無問題啦！🚀

📢 Mini-Dentist Day is back! 🦷 On 24 May, CDC children visited HKU Dentistry Clinic and became mini dentists! Thanks to the Institute for Advanced Dentistry Multi-Specialty Clinic, HKU Dentistry (IAD-MSC), the children explored the clinic, learnt dental hygiene by checking their parents’ teeth, & enjoyed a check-up by dentists. 😄The mini dentists adapted quickly to the environment and weren’t scared at all during the check-up! They’re so awesome! 😁

📢 牙醫小達人體驗日回歸！🦷 5月24日，CDC嘅小朋友一齊參觀香港大學牙醫專科診所，化身「牙醫小達人」！感謝香港大學牙醫專科診所先進牙醫學研究所大力支持，孩子喺有趣嘅遊戲中學到牙齒衛生知識，仲幫家長檢查牙齒！😄最後，牙醫仲為小朋友進行簡單牙齒檢查！小朋友好快適應環境，完全唔驚檢查牙齒！真係好叻啊😁

【Preschool SEN Education Public Seminar】

In the field of preschool special education, families are not only the central environment in children's development but also the most critical support system when facing challenges. Raising a child with diverse needs is often accompanied by tremendous stress, resource scarcity, and strained relationships, placing severe demands on family functioning and marital relationships. This lecture aims to “Enhance Family Resilience and Marital Relationships in Preschool Rehabilitation Service” by adopting a transdisciplinary team approach. The speaker will delve into strategies to support families in rebuilding resilience, optimizing parental collaboration, and fostering positive transformation in marital relationships.

🌸 We Had SO Much Fun on Mother’s Day! 🌸

We were so pleased because our mummies had a wonderful time last Sunday at CDC!! 😊 Thank you, SWD (Social Welfare Department) for funding the lovely Mother's Day Activities. 🥰

✨ We made beaded bracelets with tiny beads. They were tricky for my little fingers, but our mummies and daddies helped a lot! 💎
🎨 We painted vases and picked bright, colourful flowers. I love how they match! 🌷
🖐️ We painted handprint tees with our palms. It was super messy, but we had SO much fun! 🎉

Mummies, do you love the gifts we made? 💖 📸 We are looking forward to our next activity at CDC! 🚀

🌸充滿樂趣嘅母親節！ 🌸

上星期日，我哋好開心， 因為我哋媽咪笑得好開心！😊 多謝社署同CDC，為我哋準備咁正嘅母親節活動！🥰

✨ 我哋用珠仔串手鏈。不過我啲小手指未係好靈活，好在媽咪同爹哋一齊幫手！💎
🎨 我哋畫花樽，仲為媽咪揀顏色繽紛嘅花。放埋一齊真係好靚好好睇！🌷
🖐️ 我哋又用手掌印喺T恤上面。雖然啲顏料掂到周圍都喺，但超好玩！🎉

媽咪，你鍾唔鍾意我哋整既禮物？💖📸我哋已經好期待下一個活動！🚀
