每一天，我們見證著耀中幼教學院莘莘學子堅實地一步一步踏在成為耀中教育家的茁壯成長路上！我們感恩收到首兩位耀中同事的慷慨捐贈，幫助實現高質素幼兒教育的可持續發展。

在此，學院衷心感謝耀中教育機構技術部主管陳瑞玲女士(Joyce)，她的無私捐贈將用以成立特殊教育學位課程獎學金。Joyce對耀中幼教學院和機構的熱誠、對培育未來耀中教育家的投入，啟發了整個耀中社區。Joyce常常體現出耀中的精萃，堅定不移地決心為學生謀求最好。我們非常感謝她的支持。

Rosemary Claire Kelly女士，是我們剛榮休的大學報讀輔導區域主管，她亦慷慨地捐贈予耀中教育機構，而機構已將之撥入幼教學院。Rosemary在耀中已工作經年，乃資深員工，一直相信耀中的願景和使命。她為耀中和耀華學校，以及社區書院升讀大學輔導服務的發展做貢獻良多，幫助所有學生發揮潛能和夢想。我們非常感謝Rosemary這份心思滿盈的禮物，在此謹祝她在美國的退休生活安舒美好！

因藉教育局的第七屆「配對補助金計畫」，從今天起至2019年7月31日，送予學院的捐贈將會增加一倍！在員工、校友、家長、友好的慷慨幫助下，我們正在培養新一代耀中教育家，他們將會改變這個教育界別，在未來影響無數年輕人的人生。

The summer ended, but the joy continues! Here in Yew Chung, first week of school means happiness and laughter. Welcome back, YCers! Wish you have an amazing year ahead.

In this ever-changing world, Yew Chung’s vision stands firm and strong throughout 85 years. From Kindergarten to tertiary education, we are here to provide quality education in nurturing holistic person. Listen to our leaders and parents to see why YCers are different from others.

Here we conclude the WE CARE video series and Yew Chung’s 85th birthday celebration. Special thanks to Stylo Vision Group for their contributions in the past year.

We are delighted to announce the appointment of Anna Chan as the Director of Development and Alumni Relations of Yew Chung Education Foundation.  Anna has been with the Foundation for over 18 years and has a wealth of experience in education management, psychology in education, student counselling, and alumni engagement and parent relations.

In the past five years, Anna had been in various roles, including being the Head of Director’s Office and Acting School Business Manager. She was overseeing the full range of administrative operations of the through-train school from Kindergarten to Secondary.  She was also responsible for the development of Yew Chung Yew Wah Alumni Association.  Prior to this, Anna was in principalship for YCIS-Hong Kong Primary for nine years.

Anna was a founding officer of the Yew Chung Alumni.  Earlier in her career, she was involved in the establishment and operation of the association and the  university guidance office.  She has maintained close relations with the Yew Chung community of alumni, students, parents and staff over the past 18 years.

As the Director of Development and Alumni Relations, Anna will lead the office in developing institutional advancement strategies and oversee the fundraising activities as well as building alumni engagement for both the Yew Chung Yew Wah network and the Yew Chung College of Early Childhood Education.

To celebrate its 85th Anniversary, YCIS hosted an education conference “Reinvention - The Future Beckons” in Hong Kong on 16-17 March, 2018.

With physical participation of close to 500 staff from YCIS and Yew Wah’s schools across the regions, plus those attending through digital devices, a total of over 1,300 teachers of YC family, gathered to learn from experts on topics covering Global Competencies, 21st Century Learning and Learning Communities, which are necessary for nurturing future talents.

Yew Chung founded one of the first kindergartens in Hong Kong some 85 years ago, pioneering what were then the radical concepts of Early Childhood Education (ECE).

Today, true to its ECE roots and educator heart, YCEF is proud to introduce an ambitious, on-going project: The creation of Yew Chung College of Early Childhood Education (YCCECE), a tertiary teacher training college in Hong Kong, upgraded from Yew Chung Community College, with a new campus slated to open in 2018!

Let's begin with YCCECE's visual identity:

❨❩ Latitude and longitude - a homage to master Tai-keung Kan's original logo design, we pared it down to the Earth's lines and celebrated them

❨❩ Tertiary Education - the beginning of complex, endless discovery of our positions in the world, of ourselves

❨❩ True East x West bespoke typeface - English is Yew Chung Display; Chinese is Yew Chung Ming 耀明體. English R has the Chinese-like stroke 捺; Chinese character 敎, in its ancient form, has the English-like X

❨❩ Early Childhood Educators - shapes of humans (人) cradling, guiding, supporting each other

Check out the teaser website and see the identity in action:

At 85, Yew Chung has begun the sprint towards a century of holistic education, and we are moving ahead in style. First, a major school uniform revamp. Now, Yew Chung Education Foundation gets its own new identity!

❨❩ New logo and brand colors - distinct yet echoing the existing YCIS identity

❨❩ Bespoke typeface - English is Yew Chung Display; Chinese is Yew Chung Ming 耀明體

❨❩ New identity distills the Yew Chung ethos to their core: the origin, the globe, the true East x West blend, the infinite rippling cycles of education

The brand new YCEF has arrived.
