Ming Hwa Temple

 

Ming Hwa Temple was established in 1997 by a group of Tao-practitioners from one of the eighteen divisions of the I-Kuan Tao organization. Ming Hwa Temple is a federally registered Canadian charity organization with teaching centres in Vancouver, Calgary, and Toronto. Each teaching centre has its sanctuary carrying all the rituals and worships regularly. Teaching classes, retreats, camps, events, and outdoor activities are also conducted throughout the year.

Vegetarian Meals

 

Our camp will provide the kids with delicious vegetarian food cooked by our kitchen staff volunteers. We will also be providing snacks before and after lunch to make sure their little tummys are happy and ready to learn!

(Please note in the registration form if your child as any good allergies)

We will camp volunteers and coordinators during all 3 days to ensure a safe and encouraging learning environment for our campers.

Filial Piety

 

Our goal is to teach children the importance of respecting parents and elders. Through filial piety, they also learn values such as:

- Respect

- Gratitude

- Empathy

- Appreciation

- Manners

 

Through these lessons, children will also learn a bit of Chinese culture, Chinese language, as well as values and attitudes that will help them grow up to become a wonderful, lovable person!

Fun & Interactive Lessons

 

Our lessons will be taught in fun and interactive ways to make the learning experience much more enjoyable children while allowing them to have a much easier time learning. We will be teaching them using activities such as dramas, games, videos and more

 

Teaching Content: Chinese

Teaching Language: English

Filial Piety is a deep-rooted value in Chinese culture, so we will be teaching Chinese content (such as poetry, songs, and some common Chinese phrases). However, instructions and lessons will be given in English, as we understand this to be the dominant language spoken.

 

We will also have volunteers who speak Mandarin, Cantonese and Korean as well.

About the Summer Camp

 

What is more important than having kids to enjoying their summer while learning filial piety? Filial Piety is a virtue of respect for one’s parents, elders, and ancestors. 

 

This summer, at Ming Hwa Temple, we offer a free summer camp where kids will enjoy their time here with their friends or making new friends and doing a lot of fun activities. Our goal for this summer camp is to teach children Filial Piety by playing games and engaging activities such as drawing, singing, dancing, and making handicrafts.

 

 

What Will Children Learn?

 

Through experiential lessons and activities, your child will learn important topics outside of the regular school curriculum. An example of such topics is this year’s Filial Love (孝道).

 

Children will learn:

  1. To cherish and appreciate parents’ love and efforts in raising them.

  2. To develop empathy and respect towards parents.

  3. To stand in parents’ shoes and be more helpful and considerate to parents.

  4. To appreciate and explore the wonders of Chinese culture and Confucius values.

  5. To understand what it means to be a good child to mom and dad.

  6. To make friends who are also learning to appreciate their parents.

  7. To interact and cooperate with other children in small and supportive group environments.

  8. To see that learning is a fun thing to do.

  9. To be more independent and well-mannered.

 

Learn Chinese language, Chinese proverbs, and Confucian teachings. Learning is FUN, FUN, FUN!!
