The 3-day activity is designed based on the theme “Kids In Action” and design thinking. A series of activities will be hosted for primary students to participate related to environmental protection. “Pre-fesitval workshop” will be held in July, where teachers and students can join and work as a team to practice design thinking, brainstorming creative ideas and increasing their awareness of empathy. Under the guidance of the teaching team, children will learn about the elements and steps of design experience. Through the process of ideation, prototyping and testing, they can enhance their practical skills and unleash their creative power.
During “Creative Summer Festival” in August, participants will introduce their design concepts and activities to the public, allowing them to share their creative achievements with the community. At the same time, the teaching team will lead the students to collaborate with their peers and exchange creative ideas.
*The programme content is subjected to change, no further notice will be given if changes are made.
