Winners of SIGC Summer Internship Photo Competition

2023

A photo taken on the second day of summer camp! A recovered kid reunion to my group after one-day sick leave. His name is called Samuel too (but different from mine!). I wore a suit as a role-play of Loid Forger, who is a secret national spy in SPY x FAMILY, in understanding pinecones and seeds as secret missions!

“Inspiring Dialogue”. This poignant picture captures a significant moment during our internship as we engage in a thought-provoking interview with the founder of a remarkable social enterprise. Seated across from each other, me and my colleagues listen attentively, captivated by the founder’s words and the passion that emanates from their every gesture.

Future ‘Let your hopes, not your hurts, shape your future.’This group of refugee/ asylum seeker kids are taught to live with hope, even though their status and identity made their life much harder than other ordinary kids, they face their life with big smiles.

Towards the end of the internship, I designed a board game about financial knowledge with two student interns from other universities. Based on the setting of snakes and ladders, it simulates the life encounters and personal finance of childhood and adulthood with financial transactions and unpredictable events. Experiential and game-based learning were involved, enriching my teaching experience as an Education student. Most importantly, children could learn in a fun way.

Education is never a one-way delivery, instead, it requires interactions between students and teachers.

We seldom pay attention to the buildings and facilities in our own communities, but in fact most of them are unique and extraordinary. It’s important to be curious, to explore and discover the story in your neighborhood in order to really connect with it.

Have you ever tied an apron for your parents? When is your last intimate moment with your parents? As they get older, what they really need is not money and gift, it is our care. Therefore, spend more time with your parents and let them enjoy the rest of their lives.

During the internship, I have participated in a drama resonance event that targets sexual violence on public transport. Participants were invited to intervene as the victim and third party in response to indecent assault and upskirting on MTR.

Just like how we grow our plants, adding water and fertilizers to keep them healthy as well as how community members put effort into the community leading to a better community to live, work and stay.

Together we made more than 200 binoculars for the virtue programme at JEMS which enabled the children to discover what it means to be a person of character and contribute to society. More importantly, the three of us have acquired our own binoculars in observing character education and perceiving our personal growth from different perspectives. From this photo, we would like to emphasize that “Education is not just about knowing but perceiving.”

A carefully planned workshop on elderly and softmeal turned into a semi-improvised event after the unexpected surge of COVID-19 cases. Us interns were overwhelmed by the last-minute adjustments and only had time for a photo after the successful workshop.

Throughout our time in Nepal, we were often caught off guard by just how giving the Nepalese people were to us. It was an experience that we will never be able to forget.

Stay in Nairobi and the internship provides me with a chance to witness the change in this land and society. The work I’ve done, which is analysing the local government’s policy, opens a window for me to look into Kenya’s society, its people and its mysterious past.

The programme this picture shows was the Code+Create workshop, where the kids learned programming via Scratch. It was so amazing when we saw their plot in Scratch and we almost forgot about how pure and innocent that our childhood can be.
