Every Effort Brings Us Closer! · News · Hsinmin Elementary 新民國小

On July 30, 2026, Hsinmin Elementary School took a meaningful step in its journey of character education — participating in the 16th Three Virtues Campus (三好校園) Review.

Principal Huang Huai-Hsuan and Director Guan-Yu traveled to the Fo Guang Shan Taipei Branch (佛光山北道場) for the professional review session. Before the trip, Director Cai-Jun dedicated enormous care to preparing the school's presentation — gathering evidence of Hsinmin's commitment to the Three Virtues: doing good deeds, speaking good words, and keeping a good heart (做好事、說好話、存好心).

The review panel listened carefully and responded with high praise and encouragement. Their kind words reminded everyone that each quiet moment of effort — a teacher's preparation, a student's act of kindness, a parent's support — truly adds up.

This is the second consecutive year Hsinmin has presented for the Three Virtues review, and the warm recognition from the committee fills our whole school community with pride and renewed dedication. A school of goodness begins with each one of us. 🌿🌿🌿
