JASER scheme是一個對我影響很大的scheme。記得2019年,我剛剛加入華仁,在首個上課日之前已經被安排到JASER TRAINING CAMP,所以是我對大家留下第一印象的地方,我首次見證到華仁特色既教育,就係比一班大J去搞一個training camp,通常搞camp呢啲野一定會係老師負責,因為更加可控同埋由一班冇搞camp經驗既學生負責,其實會花費十分多時間,但我地都一直堅持呢個practice係因為覺得可以令傳承更完整同埋令學生有更多學習同成長。另一樣我經歷既係完左個camp第一日之後戴sir insist要同大J debrief,但當年既大J唔肯,事後佢地其實相當後悔,令我見識到learning from failure比learning from success有時意義更重大。
到後來我比較in charge呢個scheme,我擔當更多工作同要負起責任。由BOOK CAMP,搞CAMP, PLAN 活動,開例會,中期檢討等等都需要COMMITTMENT。但我十分相信呢D環節都係成個scheme不可或缺既部分,亦令成個scheme變得有溫度,建立到brotherhood同時承傳到人與人之間既關係既成功要素。
最後,我覺得JASER scheme係一個你比幾多就會收幾多既scheme。你有付出時間心機落黎,自然會有對應回報。希望各位JASER可以do the right thing, not the easy thing。最最最後,希望十年,二十年後既JASER scheme都可以繼續承傳到呢份華仁獨有既兄弟情,延續呢一團火。
