Fude Elementary: Growing, Learning, and Speaking English 台灣好新聞

On March 6, 2025, 14 first graders at Fude Elementary School had a fun day in the school garden. With help from their teachers and parents, they picked radishes they had grown by themselves. After that, they joined a bilingual class and learned how to cook the radishes without wasting any part of them.

The school’s garden is not just for growing vegetables. It helps students get closer to nature and learn about being kind to the Earth. The children also learn English, good habits, and how to take care of the environment. They collect leaves and eggshells to make compost and try not to waste food.

Teacher Lin Meihui used AI to make fun bilingual dialogues for the cooking activity. Principal Cho Hongbin said these hands-on lessons help children understand where food comes from and learn to care for the world.

Parents Chang Danhua and Chen Yating joined the activity and were happy to see their kids learning English and learning to protect nature. The kids were excited too! Huang Yansyun said, “It was my first time eating something I planted. Pulling radishes was fun!” Zhang Jinxia said, “I learned how to grow vegetables. I want to plant more!”

This special day helped students learn new words, new skills, and how to treasure the food they eat.
