The School
After a long time of preparation, from January 22 to 27, 2025, our Drama Psychology Winter Camp will finally be launched! Before the Spring Festival, we organized 10 volunteers to go to Shidong Middle School, Huaiji County, Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province, to carry out a drama psychology winter camp. We will first conduct internal volunteer training for 3 days, and then carry out a drama psychology camp for 34 boys and girls in Grade 1, a total of 2 days. We will go through a series of dramatic mind games, then rehearse four scripts and perform them. These four plays are related to emotions, respectively, anger, love, worry, sad. The script is written in combination with Journey to the West, one of China's four great novels. I hope that children can learn more deeply about emotional experience and management through the interpretation of the script! Pray for the success of our activities!

The scripts for the drama psychology class done
By Summer Tan | Executive Director

To help our left-behind junior high school students better perceive, experience, and manage emotions through drama, we've invited professional drama teachers to design four scripts, incorporating the four basic emotions of joy, anger, sadness, and fear, along with the classic story of Journey to the West. We're organizing a one-day drama psychology camp for the students, guiding them to feel and express emotions through drama and present them in a theatrical form. Drama is very rare for the local students to seen in their daily life. And in this camp, the students are required to use body and face to present the emotion. I am sure this is a good way for this kind of students to express their feeling! We hope the students will have a wonderful experience and gain valuable insights!

Drama psychology lesson for Ailian school students
By Summer Tan | Executive Director
In the early stage of the project, we went to Ailian Middle School and conducted a cluster survey on all the students in the first and second years of the school. We learned that family relationship and peer relationship are the two main factors that cause junior high school students to have mental health problems. In this special period, the way of drama can help them to better open themselves and explore their relationships with others.
On April 10th, we went to Ailian Middle School to provide a drama psychology class for one class in Grade One. There are about 60 students in the class. Because we have attendances amount limited for drama psychology class. So we had separate classes for boys and girls. Boys and girls have one lesson each.
In the course, students began to express different state emotions through some imitation of animals, and developed to use drama materials to express their own safe house. We read the picture book "Little Big Tree" together, and then each group performed a page of story content that they wanted to express.
Students were opening themselves up more and more to show themselves! In the process, we also constantly set up some aspects to encourage ourselves and others. After class everyone can be very loud to encourage themselves! What a meaningful and valuable time with them!
