舉行「DEAR嘉許禮」那天的禮堂裏，掌聲不只為表演響起，更為每一份看不見的堅持而喝采。
可譽的小一、小二孩子們用舞步、朗誦和歌聲，把一整年的自主學習故事，活生生搬上舞台。
但最讓人眼眶發熱的，不是節目的精采，而是他們站在爸媽面前，捧着親手製作的故事書，一個字一個字説出：「我會努力上課、主動做功課、幫忙做家事⋯⋯」
那一雙雙緊張卻閃亮的小眼睛，那份「我想讓你驕傲」的決心，讓台下許多家長偷偷擦了眼角。
甚麼是DEAR？
它不是死板的功課，而是 Daily（每日）· Exploration（探索）· Achievement（成就）· Reflection（反思） 的成長魔法。透過閱讀、書法、趣味默書、體育活動，孩子們學會的不只是知識，更是「每天進步一點點」的習慣。而這份習慣，背後有家長日復日的陪伴——你們是孩子最温暖的鬧鐘，也是最堅定的後盾。
嘉許狀不只是獎狀，是「一分耕耘」的刻度
每一張頒出的嘉許狀，都在說：親愛的孩子，我們看見你一年來的堅持；親愛的家長，謝謝你從不放棄的同行。
未來，可譽會繼續守護這份自主學習的火苗，讓每個孩子不只成為「會讀書的人」，更成為「懂得學習的人」。因為真正的成長，從來不是一場表演，而是每一天，你比昨天更喜歡那個努力的自己。
In the school hall on the day of the DEAR Awards Ceremony, the applause in the hall wasn’t just for the performances – it was for every invisible drop of perseverance.
The Primary 1 and 2 children at Ho Yu brought their year‑long stories of self‑regulated learning to life on stage through dance, recitation, and song. But the most heart‑warming moment wasn’t the polish of the show – it was when they stood in front of their parents, holding handmade storybooks, and read out word by word: “I will listen carefully in class, finish my homework on my own, help with household chores…”
Those nervous yet shining little eyes, that determination to make their parents proud – many mums and dads in the audience quietly wiped away tears.
What is DEAR?
It’s not rigid homework – it’s a growth philosophy built on Daily · Exploration · Achievement · Reflection. Through reading, calligraphy, fun dictation, and physical activities, children learn not just knowledge, but the habit of “improving a little every day.” And behind that habit are parents who accompany them day after day – you are their warmest alarm clock and their strongest anchor.
The certificate is more than an award – it’s a measure of “no pain, no gain.”
Each certificate handed out says: Dear child, we see your year‑long persistence; dear parents, thank you for never giving up on the journey alongside them.
Moving forward, Ho Yu will continue to nurture this flame of self‑regulated learning, so that every child grows not only into a “good student,” but into a “person who knows how to learn.” Because true growth is never just a one‑time performance – it’s the everyday victory of liking the person you become a little more than you did yesterday.
