Introduction of Well-being Garden「微語靜林」簡介

To celebrate the 60th anniversary of Carmel Secondary School, we are enhancing our campus environment in phases to create more learning spaces and expand possibilities for students, providing them with the best learning experience. Among these efforts, we are renovating the ＂Roman Square＂ to offer teachers and students a tranquil space in harmony with nature, promoting physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.

The Well-being Garden features swings, hexagonal tables, a Chinese herb garden, and bamboo fences displaying scriptures. The centerpiece is the “Labyrinth”. Unlike a maze, there is only one entrance and a clear path. Teachers and students can walk through it, reflecting quietly, observing the surroundings, reading the scriptures, praying quietly and turning their thoughts to God. As shown in the scripture: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.”

In the 2023-2024 school year, our school collaborated with Breakthrough on the “Art for Well-being Project.” Through lectures, the art creators from Breakthrough guided our Form 2 and Form 4 students to understand physical, mental, and spiritual health. The art instructors led workshops to explore the connection between well-being and craftsmanship, teaching students to express personal needs through handcrafts. These works are integrated into the well-being garden.

We hope the Well-being Garden can become a haven for students’ physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, allowing them to enjoy tranquility and giving them inspiration. What’s more, it brings about self-discovering through art, enhancing their sense of psychological well-being.

為慶祝迦密六十週年校慶，本校正分階段優化校園環境，創造更多學習空間，讓同學有更豐富的學習體驗。其中，我們將羅馬廣場翻新，期望為師生提供一個與大自然和諧相處的寧靜空間，促進身心靈健康。

這個空間名為「微語靜林」（名字由 2023-2024 學年 4C 蘇俊諺提供，於命名比賽中被選用），寓意在這個安靜愜意的環境，我們感受微風、細看落葉，靜聽細雨聲；與朋友靜訴近況，聆聽內心，療癒身心。

「微語靜林」內設有鞦韆架、六角桌、中草藥園圃、展示經文的竹圍欄等設施。其中最具特色的是中央的「明陣」。「明陣」不是迷宮，而是一條明確的路，師生在其中行走時可安靜反思，細察環境、閱讀經文，心中禱告，將意念轉向上帝。正如在明陣內能觀看到的經文所示：「耶和華是我的牧者，我必不致缺乏。」

在 2023-2024 學年，本校與突破機構合辦「幸福感藝術創作計劃」。突破機構的導師主持講座，讓中二及中四學生認識身心靈健康；創作導師教授藝術工作坊，讓學生發現身心靈健康與工藝創作的關係，並學習用手工藝呈現各人的心靈需求。學生的作品經過整理後，成為身心靈花園的一部分。

本校期待「微語靜林」成為學生身心靈的安息港，讓大家在這裡享受寧靜與啟發，並在藝術創作中探索自我，增強幸福感。期待每位同學都能在這個空間中找到屬於自己的平和與成長。

“Art for Well-being” - “Emotion-nel” 「幸福感藝術創作計劃」之《擁抱情隧》

“Art for Well-being” – “Emotion-nel”

In the 2023-2024 school year, Form 2 students, guided by art creators, first learnt to recognize their own emotions. They then used weaving techniques to materialize their emotions, producing their emotional imprints.

After collecting the works from the whole form, the art creators led the core group members to repair and refine their works. Finally, they hung up all the works, forming a tunnel of emotional imprints.

The colours of the pieces along the tunnel have special meaning: the outer part features deep tones, while the center displays various colours, symbolizing emotions being surrounded and protected, which creates a safe environment for the expression of emotions. Similar colours are placed together, representing the need for companionship on the journey of emotional expression. The creators intentionally left a blank space in one corner of the tunnel, allowing teachers and students to look up at the sky and feel their current emotions.

We hope that as teachers and students walk through the tunnel, they will savor the emotional changes of others and discover their own emotional colours.

在 2023-2024 學年，中二級同學在創作導師的指導下，學習先覺察自身情緒，再藉編織技巧將情緒實體化，編織出屬於自己的情緒印記。

收集全級作品後，創作導師帶領核心小組成員協助修補和潤飾，最後將編織品一一掛起，組合成展示情緒印記的「隧道」。

「隧道」的顏色排列有特別的寓意：外圍是較沉實的色調，中心則是七彩的顏色，代表較內在情緒被包圍、受保護，在安全的環境下可放心展示；色調相似的作品則會擺放在一起，象徵在抒發情緒的旅程中，需要有伙伴同行；「隧道」的一角刻意留白，師生可在此處仰望天空，感受自己當刻的情緒。

希望師生在漫步「隧道」時，既可感受他人的情緒變化，又能發現屬於自己的情緒顏色。
