[Independent Living: Exploring New Ingredients in the Kitchen 🍳🦑🍆]

In our cooking lessons👨🏼‍🍳👩🏼‍🍳, we take turns handling different ingredients🥒🥕, giving everyone the opportunity to practise new skills and build confidence💪🏻 in the kitchen.

Recently, we’ve been exploring healthier and less familiar foods, such as eggplants🍆 and squid🦑. We learned how to wash, prepare and cook them safely while discussing their texture🖐🏻, taste😋 and nutritional benefits💪🏻.

Some of us felt unsure🤔 about trying these ingredients at first, but after tasting the finished dishes, we discovered new foods we enjoyed😋😻. It was a great reminder that being open to new foods is an important part of healthy eating💪🏻.

Step by step, we are building cooking skills, confidence, independence and healthy habits for everyday life🙌🏻🤩.

[Mental Health Matters]

Mental Health Awareness Month🧠🤓 reminds us that well-being is closely connected to our relationships🫱🏻‍🫲🏼, daily experiences💪🏻, and how we understand one another🥰🫶🏻.

Through our activities and community outings, we experience many moments of connection🫱🏻‍🫲🏼 — such as spending time with elderly friends⏰👵🏼👴🏼, sharing smiles🤩, having heartfelt conversations💬, and simply being present together. These small human connections help us feel part of a community where we are supported and not alone🫶🏻👩🏻‍❤️‍👨🏼.

As we build these connections, we also learn that everyone experiences emotions differently. Sometimes, the most supportive thing we can do is to understand one another🫱🏻‍🫲🏼, respect how we feel🙇🏼‍♀️🙇🏻‍♂️, and give space when needed. Allowing time to process emotions is also a form of care🫶🏻👩🏻‍❤️‍👨🏼.

[YES 2026 Footprint 👣: Hong Kong Science Museum]

This time, we left our footprint at the Hong Kong Science Museum — a fantastic place where science🔭 comes alive through play and discovery🔍.

We explored a wide range of hands-on exhibits, took part in interactive games, and discovered how different machines and experiments work. One of our favourite highlights was the biodiversity zone, where the impressive displays of animals🐯🐗 and dinosaurs🦖 truly captured everyone’s attention👀.

We would highly recommend the Hong Kong Science Museum to families and groups who enjoy learning through play. It’s a vibrant and engaging space where everyone can explore science together, guided by curiosity!👀🤩

[🌍 Every Step Helps, Every Effort Counts 💚]

Over the past few years, our commitment to protecting the environment has continued to grow🌳. From regular recycling of plastic🥤, paper📰, and metal🗑️, to community clean-ups, we have also been consistently practising food waste recycling to reduce everyday waste.♻️

We’re not only carrying on with our usual efforts, but also exploring fresh and meaningful ways to support a cleaner, greener future♻️🌳. Recently, we’ve embraced plogging—picking up litter while jogging or walking🏃🏼‍♀️🚶🏼‍♂️. This simple activity improves our health💪🏻 while making a direct impact on the environment🌳.

Through these efforts, we hope to raise awareness and inspire more people to take part in caring for our planet🌍. Because every step helps, and every effort counts👣. 🌱

[Community Involvement: Flag Day Volunteers in Action! ]

This month, our team stepped out into the community as Flag Day volunteers💪🏻😍 — armed with flags, stickers, and big smiles😁. We greeted passers-by, thanked donors🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻, and practised polite, confident interactions in a busy street setting🫱🏻‍🫲🏼.

It was more than just fundraising; it was a lively opportunity to build social skills👂🏻🗣️, get involved, give back, and show that everyone can play a part in community life🫱🏻‍🫲🏼💪🏻🤩.

We’re so proud of everyone’s courage and effort, and incredibly grateful to those who stopped to donate🤑, smile😊, or share a kind word🤗.

Every encouragement makes inclusion possible. Every small moment of support truly matters🙇🏻😍.
