This academic school year, children of Ruth Home (primary school girls) have a personal growth program – “Give Dreams a Pair of Wings” aims to cultivate their character and self-realization, and encourage them to set personal goals and pursue progress in the four major directions of academics, interpersonal relationships, emotional expression and serving others. The program motivates them to work towards the goal of reaching their dream paradise.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Embark on a wonderful journey (Let\u2019s see the results of their efforts!)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Academics\uff1a<\/strong><\/p>\nRanked the first in the class in Chinese Listening; Handed in homework every day; Studied very hard before the exam (a few weeks before); Ranked in the top 30 in grades; Ranked the second in Physical Education; Learned a lot of new words\n

Interpersonal Relationships\uff1a<\/strong><\/p>\nI have many friends at school\uff1bthose who live in room 1 are all my good friends\uff1bI have many friends because I have good manners.\n

Emotional Expression\uff1a<\/strong><\/p>\nI can calm down a little faster when I am angry; I don\u2019t hit my friends when I am angry; I seldom lost my temper; I don\u2019t lose my temper when doing homework; I do control my emotions; I try to express my emotions; I have progress in my picky eating habits\n

Serving Others\uff1a<\/strong><\/p>\nI often help classmates and teachers at school; visit care home for the elderly; participate in flag-selling; help others to pour water or remove sundries; comfort others when they are injured\n

Children learn to work hard for themselves in every endeavor and realize the hard work can make difference for themselves and others.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cA Disney Date – Invitation to Disneyland\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\nThroughout the entire program, social workers provided guidance and motivation, arranged a reward activity – \u201cA Disney Date – Invitation to Disneyland\u201d to commend the children for their active participation and efforts over the past few months, giving their dreams a pair of wings so that the “little princesses” could go to the castle to play together.\n\nWhen they completed the last piece of the puzzle at home, it meant that everyone had achieved their goal!\n\n\"\"\n\n\"\"\n

Dreams Come True\u3000Grateful Diary <\/strong><\/p>\nWe hope that our children are able to express their feelings and learn to be grateful. We invited them to write or draw after the visit to Disneyland to recall the wonderful things that happened. May happiness remain in their hearts and become the driving force for them to face life.\n

Thank God for making us the children of Ruth House<\/p>\n

\u300cDear God:\nThank you for allowing us to achieve our goal and go to Disneyland, the place we all dream of.\nActually, achieving our goal is not an easy thing. We all work hard to complete everything, so that we can go to Disneyland happily together in the end.\nThank you for sponsoring us.\nThank you for bringing us to this world and meeting our family and friends.\nDuring my time at Ruth House, I really feel everyone’s kindness, tolerance, and understanding towards me, and feel the meaning of being a human being.\nThere are happy and unhappy moments here, and social workers and parents patiently\nlisten to me and comfort me…\nThank you for giving me strength!\u300d(The sharing from Fish)<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
