Having witnessed how small individual efforts can grow into collective impact, veteran environmental volunteers Wong Sin Hwa and Chua Wee Chong share this message: you can do more than you think.
The final Parent-Child Bonding Class of the year is always filled with laughter and anticipation. On this special day, the children showcased what they had learned in the past year through games.
Children are like saplings, and when nurtured with dedication by parents, teachers, and volunteers, they will thrive as they grow. Through the Seeds of Hope Merit Awards, Tzu Chi aims to recognise every child’s growth. It is the organisation’s hope that every child who perseveres in their learning despite adversity receives this warm blessing, giving them the strength to move forward and ultimately transform into a towering tree that shelters others.
“How do we want to work?” and “How do we want to connect?” During Tzu Chi Great Love Preschool’s third Professional Development Day, the speakers guided the preschool educators to rediscover their original aspirations for joining the early childhood field through interactive sharing and collaborative group activities.
Teachers' Day is not only a day to thank teachers; it also reminds us that education is a cycle of love, and within this cycle, teachers gain strength and happiness from the support of children, staff, and society.
The efforts for sustainable development cannot stop at national borders. The TIYA Conference 2025, held for the first time in Singapore after relocating from Taiwan, brought together youth from fourteen countries and regions.
Do you get enough rest every day? During this year’s Youth Day, Tzu-Chi Foundation (Singapore) hosted a large-scale initiative cum fundraising event, SYNC. Festival, to promote the concept of sustainable wellbeing.
True rest is not about 'doing nothing'. At SYNC. Festival 2025, young people were invited to explore ways to nourish and balance various aspects of the self, including the mind, emotions, senses, body, social relationships, creativity and spirituality.
Silver storks, kingfishers, mudskippers, ospreys… animals rarely seen in our city landscape were adopted as names for the teams in the 2025 Tzu Chi Teenagers’ Camp. And they also represented the wildlife that they hoped to come across during the camp. So, what other novel experiences awaited the Tzu Shaos on Kukup Island?
How do teenagers express their gratitude to their parents on Parents’ Day? Some parents shared that such intimate interaction such as foot bathing are rare at home, but the heartfelt atmosphere created by Tzu Chi makes the experience natural and heartening.
"I used to score only 8 marks on my math exam and even thought about giving up on my studies. However, with my mother’s continuous support and my sister’s tutoring, I managed to get a Grade B in my PSLE this year." From scoring 8 marks to earning a Grade B, Primary 6 graduate Qusyairie Shah tearfully shared his exam preparation journey.
Through their community initiatives, you will discover a group of young individuals who, empowered by a public welfare platform, are diligently practicing the values they hold dear while joyfully pursuing their passions.
At different stages of life, people wear different hats suited to the occasion: soft and adorable hats in infancy, trendy sun hats in adolescence, and chef hats, engineer hats, or surgeon hats in adulthood, depending on one’s profession. Even so, the most precious and unique hat will always be the first mortarboard one wears.
Children reap a year of growth through creativity and practical actions. From creating 3D-printed life-saving models to charity sale notebooks, from compiling Jing Si Aphorisms to expressing love for living beings through musical sign language, each project symbolizes love and hope, marking a heartwarming conclusion to 2024.
Courses in sound healing, vocal training, guzheng, tea art, floral arrangement, cooking, and Chinese ink painting offer enriching leisure activities that go beyond scrolling on phones or taking vacations, bringing tranquility and enjoyment to our busy modern lives.
Today's children are growing up in a world of material abundance and diverse values. In their first classroom, beyond the joys of learning and forming friendships, it is crucial to instil character education, life education and living skills. These foundational lessons may not show immediate results, but they lay the groundwork for a lifetime of well-being and resilience.
"Yes, there are times when we all feel 'too tired,' but I remind myself of the original aspiration I became a preschool teacher," said Teacher Teo Yu Qing. "For me, educating with care means carefully observing and focusing on the children, even the smallest details."
“Oh my, they’ve all grown up so much!” On this day, preschool alumni who have moved on to primary school and their parents returned to celebrate this significant occasion.
The 90-minute children's stage play delved into themes of ethnic barriers, refugees, and climate issues, offering valuable lessons for both adults and children. These themes foster resilience and empathy, helping audiences of all ages navigate life's challenges.
Gratitude rather than complaint opens the doors to life.
