Earlier, the Education Bureau planned to add life planning to the senior primary school curriculum in 2024. It is hoped that students can learn from the elementary level to understand themselves, set goals, make personal plans, and understand various pathways for further studies and employment.
Principal Yan Yuanfeng of Leshantang Liu De School attaches great importance to life planning. He believes: "Life planning is simply the journey of pursuing personal dreams, that is, the "navigation" of life. The sooner students find their own interests and characteristics, and establish their careers. With planning, they can dare to sail toward the "dream".
The biggest difference between dreams and work is that dreams can only be realized with passion (Passion) and courage (Courage), and they can generate motivation to pursue higher-level dreams.

However, dreams seem to be out of reach for many grassroots students. The pressure of living will make people lose the ambition to pursue dreams, and even make many people afraid to have dreams. Are dreams really achievable by everyone's expectations?
Principal Yan has another opinion: "It is very important for children to plant the seeds of dreams from an early age and let children experience and realize their dreams. Children’s world is very simple. As long as the seeds of this dream are planted, it will naturally be in their spiritual soil. In addition, the principals and teachers pour fertilizers like “enthusiasm,” “persitance,” and “braveness” like gardeners, so that “dreams” can grow up in their lives, and they will have goals and directions in their lives. "Career planning" is no longer an external help, but a "navigator" is generated in students. Even if they are in a different environment in the future, "dreams" will still guide them into their lives and live a wonderful life. Satisfying and meaningful.
In order to bring the true meaning of "career planning" to life, Principal Yan is determined to support it with actions, so that the "Demeng" of Liu De School can truly set sail. In order to achieve the students' dreams, he uses the school's "campus TV station". As the host of the show, in just over a month, he has started filming and broadcasted three special episodes of the "I Have My Dream" series-"Desire to be fulfilled", "Hong Kong team athletes will win glory for Hong Kong" and "Being fun" When the German meets the tip of the sword."
When a student wants to become a singer, the principal will personally play the guitar for him; when a student wants to become an athlete and represent the Hong Kong team in the future, the principal invites the Paralympic coach of Liu De School and the fencing representative of the former Hong Kong team to come. The school acts as a guest, and encourages students to recognize their goals, not to be afraid of hard work, and to overcome difficulties in the future and successfully embark on the road of athletes.
"Although it is the realization of dreams, it is actually behind the establishment of life." Principal Yan shared a small clip of Xie Zhong: "Principal, my classmates often say that I am out of voice, do I sing badly?" Principal Yan used his gardener. The technique of pouring "fortitude" and "brave" to the students: "Don't believe what your classmates say. The principal now says that if you sing well, it sounds good." These words of Principal Yan inspired a student, and finally gave it back. After successfully recording his performance, he not only regained his confidence, but also received more praise.
During the interview, another student shed tears when he thought of how hard his mother took him to the venue to practice.
"This is the golden memory ball for children and mothers to experience and practice dreams. It is hard to buy for a daughter. He must remember his mother's love and support for him throughout his life."
Now, with the students’ sincere sharing of the dream of the school, many parents, uncles and aunts have left messages to support them, praising them for doing a good job, the dream will surely be achieved, and the students have begun to become more confident.
This "I Have My Dream" series is not over yet, and there are already many touching stories. I believe these beautiful and unforgettable experiences will surely ignite their "career planning" and become a major driving force for their progress in life.
Therefore, the "I have my dream" in "career planning" is not a course, but to deepen the growth and learning in the child's life. The "navigation" of this "dream" is no longer out of reach.
