Community Service

Service Learning Philosophy

Fuzhou Lakeside International School's Service Learning program cultivates a sense of social and ethical responsibility in students, advances the school mission of creating a caring community, and fosters the development of the School's core value of character. Service Learning is more than simply contributing to a fundraiser or collection drive; done properly, it links education to service and service to learning and therefore becomes an essential part of our co-curricular offerings. All students in the FLIS are encouraged to develop a sense of community service. High School students are required to complete 20 hours of satisfactory work/service for the School each year. The principle rationale behind this requirement is the strong belief on the part of the faculty and administration that a degree of self-giving in terms of work done for others is an integral part of effective education and a growing sense of personal responsibility. 

Fuzhou Lakeside International School Service Learning program encourages students to be good members of the community in three core areas:

√  In our immediate neighborhood, by entering partnerships with our local schools, hospitals and community centers.

√  In our country, by entering partnerships with humanitarian and philanthropic organizations

√  In our global community, by serving the needs of others through ADRA, Red Cross or any other NGO.

社区服务学习理念和政策

福州西湖国际学校的社区服务学习项目，目的在于培养学生社会道德责任感，促进学校成为一个相互关怀的社区，并加快学校本质核心价值观的发展。服务性学习不单单对捐赠人或集体募捐活动有益。如果操作得当，它可将教育至服务、服务到学习完整联系起来，从而成为我们课程辅助活动产品的一个重要部分。我们鼓励所有西湖国际学校的学生养成社区服务意识。中学学员需要每年为学校完成20个小时的满意服务。我校坚持让学生践行此要求，是基于我校全体教职工对为他人默默奉献实为教育中不可或缺的一环，也是培养个人责任感的重要方式这一信念的坚信。

福州西湖国际学校服务性学习项目鼓励学生从三个核心层面出发，成为良好的社会成员：

√ 在我们的周边，与当地学校，医院和社区中心建立伙伴关系。

√ 在我们的国家，与人道主义和慈善组织建立伙伴关系。

√ 在我们的全球社区，通过为安泽国际救援协会，红十字会或其他非政府组织服务。
