從迦納捎來的消息

王子和他的團隊(Jukwa youth)有感於教育的重要性,將Jukwa的幾所學校聯合在一起,舉辦了測驗競賽呢!王子的信件中也提到,孤兒院裡孩子們的教育,也是他所關心的重點,他的目標就是要讓所有在Jukwa的孩子們都可以受到良好的教育!

以下是王子所寫的企畫書,大家可以看看
(腳踏車也可以成為鼓勵學生努力向學的獎品喔!)


Introduction
Jukwa Students and Associates is a group that brings together the young literates who hail from and/or live in Jukwa. With the slogan "Together We Build", the group has a sole aim of harnessing the knowledge and the enthusiasm of the young people and to gear them towards the development of the town in particular and the district in general. The association seeks to find workable solutions to the various challenges facing our land. At our meeting in Jukwa on January 2, 2011, it was realized that the current standard of education in Jukwa is low, and as our objective directs, the association is organizing a JHS Quiz competition in Jukwa in the month of February as our immediate step to help salvage the situation.

Objectives
The Association is embarking on this competition to offer motivation for the younger people in Jukwa to take education seriously. We believe that by raising this platform, and with the plan to repeat every year, pupils will be encouraged to study hard to win the prizes available as well as gain the prestige that accompanies such occasions. 
We also hope to rekindle a healthy academic competition among the schools in Jukwa. It is an undeniable fact that competition brings out the best in everyone. Unfortunately, there seems to be no means by which the schools in our area are able to compete among themselves on the academic front. By this programme, we hope to offer that necessary grounds for our younger siblings to achieve their best.
Again, by this means we hope to make both teachers and pupils in Jukwa realize that the community is interested in what they do. There is an unfortunate impression held that “nobody cares” about what happens to the education of most of our children in Jukwa. Without trying to argue the issue, we want to use this measure to inform all and sundry about the interest of the community in the education of its younger ones. 

The Competition
The Jukwa Schools Quiz competition is expected to involve all the nine (9) Junior High Schools in Jukwa namely; D/C JHS, Catholic JHS, Methodist JHS, Anglican JHS, Model JHS, Pamo JHS, Jabez JHS, Shalom JHS and Ebenezer JHS. These nine schools will be put into three groups, after a ballot, for three preliminary contests. Each of these three contests shall be organized on a different day and in order not to disrupt school sessions, the competition shall begin at 1:00pm. Each of these preliminary contests shall take place at Jukwa Motel. After the balloting the schedule for the prelims shall be
Group A- Friday, 11th February, 2011
Group B- Friday, 18th February, 2011
Group C- Friday, 25th February, 2011

The winners of these preliminary contests shall then qualify for the finals of the competition, which shall be held at the Jukwa Acheampong Market on 4th March 2011. 
Each school will be expected present three (3) pupils for the completion, making provision for both sexes on the team. No school shall be allowed to present an only-male or an only-female team. This is to ensure gender sensitivity in the representation. 



Awards
In order to elicit positive response from both teachers and pupils for this competition, we are making the award package benefit both the school and the pupils. Details are as follows;
• Certificates for all participating pupils
• Books and other educational materials for all participating pupils
• One computer and a printer for overall best school
• One bicycle for each of the students in the winning school’s team
• One computer for second placed school
• One computer for third placed school
• Cash prize for the winning team
• Refreshment for all participating pupils and their teachers

Available Resources
• Three bicycles for the winning students
• Association members to work as quiz officials

[HomeWork] Joy 給 11團員的第一份作業

   Joy 給 11團員的第一份作業,要大家想想看自己最想要的三樣禮物、最想一起吃飯的人、與最擔心的三件事有什麼關聯呢?

  • 兔子
  擔心人們自私、互不關心,需要受幫助的人得不到幫助,所以我想和Jacqueline吃飯,想找到「能將我的專業和助人結合」的方法(在這之前得先找到我的專業)。
  • Terry
  我希望擁有一千億、一支正義的團隊、一同和我維護世界和平。爲了達成這個夢想,我希望與巴菲特共餐,商討金錢法則以及對待金錢的態度。我會堅持追逐自己的夢想,並相信成功,直至走到人生的終點。家人的健康、世界不和平和迷失自己,是我一生的牽掛。
  • 七七
  我希望在台灣開第一座Disney遊樂園帶給每個小朋友夢想,同時也獲得一個機會可以上外太空體驗當太空人,但如果能和家人一起玩Disney重拾夢想或是一起當太空人來一趟太空旅行才會是最完美的。在完成這些挑戰的事情同時,也希望可以和Iker Casillas一起共進餐點,談談足球的魅力以及滿足我這個球迷的好奇心。在營運Disney樂園的時候,也就是我找到未來的方向的時候,期望這個樂園帶給全世界的人歡樂,心靈再也不會灰暗無光,同時關心彼此的身體健康與幸福與否。
  • 慢慢
  多一點的時間、多一點的知識其實就是我想要的禮物!這些能為世界做什麼?是那些重大得事情嗎?禮物、一個人物和世界的事情,有著的關聯就是我對生命的態度和希冀

  •  孟花
  我想要的禮物就是得到一台相機還有無限次數的去Disney Land玩!大概就是想要永遠擁有一個童心吧!絕對不可以因為生活的現實面而變成一個無趣到不行的人的!所以也很想要每天記錄週遭的世界、自己的生活,用我的眼睛去看到這個世界的美好。最想跟John Mayer一起吃飯,聊聊他怎樣感動人心。最希望的是大家都能夠live happily ever after!

  • 柔妤 
矛盾著 , 仰慕巴菲特,但又深暗錢所帶來的未知人性...
"很幸福" ,眼睛眨呀眨,有如快門記錄這世界的黑暗髒後,還要說出這些話

  • 東賢
  願有機會乘上時光機,與未來的JOY來場美麗的邂逅,也希望未來的世界比現在還要
好,至少還有未來。

  • 思今
  世界上有那麼多事情在同時進行,這些事情伴隨各種情緒。我想要了解John Barth對於人類生活的思索,再用我的眼睛、我的鏡頭,搭著不知道目的地的飛機去記錄這個世界還沒有被淹沒、人們還笑著的那一面。
