\u2019n Internasionale skoolprojek gefokus op volhoubare ontwikkeling bring leerders van Taiwan en Wellington bymekaar om oor w\u00eareld-kwessies te gesels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die internasionale vennootskap met skole oor die w\u00eareld heen is begin nadat leerders van Chung Hsiao Elementary School in Taiwan verlede September 156 poskaarte aan leerders van die Laerskool Swartland gestuur het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Paul Andr\u00e9, \u2019n Suid-Afrikaner wat \u2019n onderwyser in Taiwan is, s\u00ea die Pingtung-onderwysdepartement wou die ondervinding verder tot \u2019n w\u00eareldwye projek bevorder nadat die Taiwannese leerders pragtige poskaarte terug ontvang het waarin die unieke landskappe van die Wes-Kaap vertoon is. \u201cEk het \u2019n kurrikulum ontwerp wat fokus op volhoubare ontwikkelingsdoelwitte volgens Unesco. Ons het toe ons eerste ontmoeting tussen Chung Hsiao Elementary School, die Laerskool Hugo Rust en die Laerskool Swartland geskeduleer. Dit was \u2019n geleentheid waar leerders hul erfenis, stokperdjies, kultuur, land en kos kon deel. Baie leerders het plakkate ontwerp, aangetrek en selfs werklike kos gewys.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Andr\u00e9 vertel dat die skole se eerste aanlyn ontmoeting \u2019n reuse sukses was. Leerders het dit so geniet dat hulle nie totsiens wou s\u00ea nie. Hy s\u00ea dit was ook \u2019n emosionele ervaring vir sy seun, Loxton. Loxton het tydens die ontmoeting sy lewenservaring as \u2019n Suid-Afrikaner wat in Taiwan grootword, gedeel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die tweede ontmoeting tussen die drie skole was gegrond op die tema natuurlewe. Elke skool het inligting gedeel oor inheemse diere van hul land. Teen die einde van die sessie het elke skool \u2019n tradisionele liedjie van hul land gesing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSwartland het \u2018Dans\u2019 van Lollos gesing, Hugo Rust het \u2018Bobbejaan klim die berg\u2019 gesing, en Chung Hsiao het \u2019n tradisionele haka-lied oor respek vir ouer mense gesing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Derde en vierde aanlyn ontmoeting is reeds beplan. Di\u00e9 keer sal leerders besprekings hou oor bedreigde spesies van hul lande. Andr\u00e9 s\u00ea hulle gaan ook praat oor onderwerpe soos aardverwarming, intensiewe boerdery, besoedeling en klimaatsverandering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die besprekings raak nie net aan die verskeie kwessies nie, maar die kinders gaan verder deur oplossings te bespreek. Elke skool sal dan voorleggings oor hul voorstelle doen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie doel van die projek is om leerders bewus te maak van hoe om w\u00eareldwye netwerke te vestig, hoe lande verskillende benaderings tot dieselfde w\u00eareldkwessies het en om volhoubare w\u00eareldburgers te word wat klimaatsverandering verminder,\u201d voeg Andr\u00e9 by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die graad 6-klas van Charl de Villiers by die Laerskool Hugo Rust is baie opgewonde om deel van die projek te wees. \u201cHulle maak my die week voor die aanlyn ontmoeting mal. Dit is maar moeilik om hulle daarop gefokus te hou, maar hulle geniet dit so baie en \u2019n mens wil dit nie van hulle af wegneem nie. Partykeer, wanneer die kamera op hulle is, lyk dit asof hulle op Nuweland sit soos hulle vir die kamera waai,\u201d vertel De Villiers laggend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie feit dat ons kinders nou meer leer van die Taiwannese se land en hul kultuur, maak nogal die kinders se w\u00earelde oop op die gebied van wat eintlik alles elders gebeur.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De Villiers en Andr\u00e9 het destyds saam onderwys aan die Kaapse Skiereiland Universiteit van Tegnologie (KSUT) in Wellington studeer. Di\u00e9 twee het op \u2019n tyd saam in Taiwan onderwys gegee, maar n\u00e1 sewe jaar oorsee het De Villiers en sy gesin besluit om terug te keer Suid-Afrika toe. Hulle meen hulle is gelukkig dat hulle n\u00e1 al die jare weer kan saamwerk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Andr\u00e9 is die Taiwannese kinders net so opgewonde om die projek voort te sit. Die kinders het besef watter voordele hulle het om Engels te kan praat en om deur die taal met ander te kommunikeer. Hy voeg by dit is \u2019n goeie geleentheid vir die kinders om Engels te oefen, aangesien dit hul derde taal is. Andr\u00e9 s\u00ea die projek is \u2019n goeie voorbeeld van hoekom Taiwan wil h\u00ea sy burgers moet teen 2030 Engels as \u2019n tweede taal praat..<\/span> An international school project focused
