一场跨越千里的牵手

吉根乡小学的孩子们多数是边境守边员的子女。在与吉根乡小学的孩子们远程互动的过程中，我们发现，许多我们习以为常的物件，在吉根乡却非常罕见。例如，爱画画的小朋友却没有一支合适的画笔；在开阔美丽的自然环境中，孩子们却住在简易搭建的棚架子里。

尽管如此，吉根乡孩子们依然是自信与开朗、大方与热情的，他们毫不吝啬地分享自己生活中的点滴。在他们眼中，“不一样”的我们，在“不一样”的生活中有着各自的幸福。

吉根乡小朋友的生活方式拓展了幼儿园孩子们的视野。孩子们不禁惊叹道：“哇，他们可以骑马去上学！”也会感慨道：“跟我一样大的小朋友每天可以做全家人吃的饭啊！”

用热爱与善良，搭建意义与链接

在了解了吉根乡孩子们的生活之后，孩子们对独特的新疆地域文化产生了浓厚的兴趣，也开始思考起儿童节的意义与链接，希望通过自己的方式，与吉根乡小学的孩子们互相学习，彼此帮助，远程共度属于他们的节日。

杭州惠立幼儿园的孩子们希望通过今年的儿童节来加强与吉根乡小朋友的联系。他们认真地思考着：自己可以通过什么方式来帮助他们呢？最后，孩子们决定以班级摊位的方式来筹集善款，为吉根乡购买教学物资。

惠立核心价值观之善良

善良指能为他人着想、无私奉献的精神。

小小的人儿，有着大大的能量

就这样，孩子们在老师和家长的帮助下，开设了脸部彩绘、手工艺品小站、跳蚤市场等摊位，积极募集善款。这场活动中，孩子们共筹集了19373.5元善款，学校为吉根乡的小朋友们购置了文具、体育教具、保暖衣物等物资，而这些物资已经在6月21日打包寄出，不久将送达到孩子们的手上。同时，吉根乡的孩子们也向惠立的孩子们展示了引以为傲的舞蹈文化，让孩子们感受到了同一片天空下多彩的异域文化。

惠立价值观之责任

责任指为自己的行为负责的同时，为人可靠、值得信任，为自己所在的社区及群体履行应尽的义务。

感悟同一片天空下，不一样的我们

在这场“惠立与吉根乡：互相帮助与链接”为主题的儿童节中，孩子们学到了重要的一课，那就是生活在同一片天空下，不一样的我们有着不一样的生活方式。两个学校的孩子们彼此学习，切身体验彼此眼中的幸福。由此，孩子们更加深入地理解了每一个人的独特价值，对尊重这一惠立核心价值观有了更深切的体会。

惠立价值观之尊重

尊重指对个人、群体或其他对象表现出尊重平等的态度。这包括了自我尊重，即不愿为了获得别人的认可而放弃自己的价值观。

Shaking hands thousands of miles apart

at HNH

In the westernmost primary school in China, the Jigen Town Primary School in Uchia County, Kizilsu Kirgiz Autonomous Prefecture in Xinjiang Autonomous Region, children were sharing with our children at Huili Nursery Hangzhou about their dreams and daily life.

It was a heart-warming scene captured while our nursery children were enjoying their project named “How we differ”. Ms Ling, mum of Nemo from EY4, discovered what Jigen Primary School needed during her trip and helped us build the connection with them. Then we had an activity organised by the nursery children themselves and supported by both the teachers and parents, imparting the beauty of individuality to the children, while they explored the distinct value of each individual and demonstrated our Huili values of kindness, respect and responsibility.

Building a bridge crossing

thousands of miles away

Most pupils attending Jigen Primary School are the children of border guards. During our interaction, we found that things we take for granted could be regarded as rare objects there. For example, a suitable drawing pen is not easily accessible for children who love to draw; and even though the natural environment is breathtaking, children still live in makeshift sheds.

In spite of that, children at Jigen Town are confident and cheerful, assertive and enthusiastic. They shared their lives with us and found that we each have our own happiness in our daily lives no matter how different our lifestyles may be.

The lifestyle of the children at Jigen Town broadened the horizons of Huili children. They were amazed because "wow, they can ride horses to school!", and marvelled at the fact that "children of my age can cook meals for their whole family every day!"

Building meaning and links

with passion and kindness

Delving into the lives of children in Jigen sparked Huili children’s interest in the unique Xinjiang culture. They started to wonder about the meaning of Children’s Day and how to build links with their new friends. They wanted to remotely celebrate the festival that belongs to them and learn from the children in Jigen through mutual support.

Huili children wanted to strengthen their connection with the children at Jigen on Children"s Day this year. They thought carefully about how they could help them and finally decided to raise funds through a fair to purchase teaching materials for children at Jigen Village.

Kindness, one of Huili’s values, means:

Showing consideration for others and acting selflessly for their benefit.

Being young and powerful

With the help of parents and teachers, Huili children set up tables for face painting, arts and crafts station, flea market, etc., to raise funds. They raised a magnificent 19,373.5 yuan and the school purchased such materials as stationery, sports teaching tools and warm clothing, all of which have already been sent to their friends at Jigen Town so they can make use of them quickly. Meanwhile, on the other side of the country, the children at Jigen proudly performed their traditional culture, allowing our children to feel connected to the colourful exotic fashion under the same sky.

Responsibility, one of Huili’s values, means:

Being reliable, dependable and accountable for one’s conduct. Fulfilling a duty. Acknowledging the need to serve communities in which we operate.

Under the same sky, we are different.

We transformed this event into a Children’s Day themed celebration named “Huili and Jigen: mutual help and connection.”The children learned that although living under the same sky, people have different lifestyles and that we respect each other’s unique values. Through this activity, children from both schools learned from each other and witnessed happiness in each other’s eyes. It enabled the children to deepen their understanding of being Inclusive, which is also a characteristic of the Huili identity.

Respect, one of Huili’s values, means:

A positive feeling of esteem for a person, group, entity or quality, resulting in acting with fairness. This can include self-respect which involves not compromising one’s values just to gain approval from others.
