会长感言 PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Dear Members,

Time flies in the blink of an eye, the biennial Election AGM is here. I was elected President of the Association on the 29th of August, 2015. Since then, the elected Executive Committee and I have collaborated effectively and carried out a lot of work in the development and expansion of our association. Over the past two years, in accordance with our Association’s policies and objectives, the Executive Committee have worked extensively in community services, cultural promotion and Chinese language education. The Association Development: We re-activated the Chung Wah Women's Subcommittee, Dragon and Lion Dance Troupe, Dragon Boat Team and various cultural groups, so that more members could participate in the development and embracement of Chinese culture. The Chung Wah Chinese School Council was re-established to effectively coordinate the work of the three Chung Wah Chinese School campuses. The advancement of the development of the Chung Wah Autumn Centre. The overall development and construction concept was carefully designed and consulted with the City of Stirling Planning Department to move the project forward to enable construction as soon as possible. Community Services: Our Community and Aged Care centre, as always, have provided quality services for the elderly of the Chinese community; and continued to improve the scope of services reflecting the traditional Chinese virtues of respect and care for the elderly.

Chinese Language Education: We strengthened the professional training for our teachers and established a distance teacher training programme with the Chinese Education Foundation in China. Organised various extra-curricular activities, such as the Chinese recital competition and winter camp in Shandong, China. Over the past two years, the work that we have accomplished and the achievements attained are the result of the participation and contribution of many of our members. Your performances on the stage, efforts behind the scenes, hard work and team work of fully demonstrate the harmonious cooperation and infinite vitality of the Chung Wah family. We are deeply motivated by and proud of the volunteers and team members’ selfless contributions. I would like to thank all the members of the Executive Committee for their cooperation and support; the members of the Council of Elders, Community and all our members for your trust, support and the opportunity to serve and contribute to the Association and the community. To the staff at the office and community; to the Chung Wah office staff and sub-committees. Finally, let us wish our association will continue to hand down more than 100 years of values, carry forward our culture and virtue, and forever be the home for the Chinese community. Wish you all the best. Thank you.

Worked in unity with other associations to serve and build a harmonious Chinese community in Western Australia. Cultural promotion: Organised numerous large-scale traditional and artistic cultural activities that brought a rich and colourful essence to both the Chinese and the local community in Western Australia. Initiated and coordinated a series of Chinese New Year events and activities which became very wellknown and received by the mainstream society. Encouraged and supported the regular activities carried out by the Association’s sub-groups and cultural groups.

Over 150 members attended the AGM, including members of the Council of Elders, past Presidents and Executive Committee members, elderly members from the aged care services, parents and teachers from the Chinese schools, members of social groups and community leaders, etc. The ninety-minute 2017 AGM was conducted smoothly as per the agenda. The efforts of and results achieved by the immediate past Executive Committees were highly complimented. The past president, Mr. Ting Song SU, mentioned that it was a responsible gesture by the EXCO to have all its committees attending the AGM to present the work report and financial report to all attended members in both Chinese and English versions, in the presence of the appointed auditor of the Association. The financial report was the main discussion point during the meeting. In response to a question on the overall financial performance of Chung Wah Association for the past 12 months, the outgoing Treasurer, Mr. Eddie Ko, indicated that the Association did very well financially last year and in fact, it was the best year in terms of financial performance. A net revenue surplus of $648,072 was generated; aged care and the schools were the two main contributors to this surplus.

巴卡达中华文化中心装修

The funds were used to: 1. Repair the roof of the Cultural Centre 2. Tint the upper windows of one side of the hall 3. Refurbish the male and female toilets 4. Replace and install new wash basins with mixer tap handles

文◎陈清灵Doreen Chin 译◎冯恺盈Helene Fung

5. Purchase new kitchen equipment that helped to keep food fresh at the correct temperature, as part of food safety awareness 6. Set aside for new stage curtains, in line with upgrading to meet fire safety requirements for stage fabrics used 7. Replace three old wall fans which had stopped working 8. Install new power points and switches to all the 12 wall fans 9. Install 2 smoke detectors 10. Install 6 RCDs (safety switches) Further fundraising is needed as upgrading items like stage curtains, double-glazing windows to cut down noise, are rather expensive.

新的地板令文化中心看起来焕然一新

T

he Chung Wah Association was founded in 1909, with the aim of fulfilling the social and cultural needs of the Chinese community in Western Australia. The Balcatta Property Development Subcommittee was established to be responsible for the project to build a new cultural centre to provide for the growing needs of our members and the Chinese community. After several years of hard work and effort in planning and fundraising, Chung Wah Cultural Centre in Balcatta was finally, officially opened on 22 March 1998. Over the years, improvements and repairs were carried out by the succeeding Executive Committees. Being a multipurpose hall, it was then well-used by members who played badminton, table tennis and dancing activities, the Mid-Autumn Festival concerts and Chinese New Year celebrations. The Cultural Centre is now almost twenty years old. Currently, it is used weekly by the Chung Wah Community & Aged Care as a day respite care for the elderly, as well as for other activities for the older members of the Association. During the weekend, there are dancing activities organised not only for the members of Chung Wah but also others who are interested in participating. Though regular repairs and maintenance were carried out over the years, the state of the hall floor was showing signs of aging – uneven,

drab-looking parquetry floor, toilets and wash basin taps were in need of regular repairs due to constant water leakage, the whirlybirds were creaking and every time it rained, the roofs of the kitchen and the hall would leak. The hazards that could be caused by these problems were of great concern to the elderly users, as well as the dancers and visitors to the Cultural Centre. The Executive Committee, led by President DING Shao Ping, took a proactive decision to upgrade and improve the Cultural Centre. In late of December 2016, the parquet floor of the hall was completely sanded to even out the floor, polished and covered with three-layer of lacquer coating, so as to make it less slippery. It made the Cultural Centre look new but most important of all, it changed the mood of the elderly and senior members as it made them very happy to spend their time at the hall.

The Association thanks and appreciates very much the contributions and help by our past and present members, and looks forward to their continued help, so that it can carry on to provide a safe and happy venue for the benefit of our members and the community.

添置新的厨房器

We are grateful to the Member for Balcatta, David Michael MLA, who alerted us to apply for the funding called Local Projects Local Jobs Grant. A grant of $25,000 was received from the Office of Multicultural Interests to assist in the upgrade of our Cultural Centre.

James Chong 张仕煌 上世纪70年代初,张仕煌因为爱情和自己的前途来到西澳大利亚就读会计专业。 他报读了科廷大学前身的西澳科技学院,三年的留学生涯,他以科廷大学的第一批会 计本科毕业生完成学业。同时受益于当年的Gough Whitlam 政府的大学免费制度, 张仕煌的整个大学生涯只花了大约一千澳元的学费。1977年,经过太太林少莲的介 绍,张仕煌加入了中华会馆。四十年来,活跃于华人社区的建设和活动。 文/译/摄影◎Elvie Yap叶俐廷

在上世纪90年代,当年还是每年一届的中 华会馆常委会选举制度下,张仕煌是少有连任 五届的会长。在这五年任期中,他的魄力和组 织能力配合一群有志人士的群策群力,中华文 化中心从无到有。 正如他所说, “今天中华会馆是珀斯华人 社会的精神和支柱,这个成就不是偶然的。每 一个常委会委员,每一个干事小组组员都是为 大众义务服务的,他们身后还有家人在背后默 默支持和帮助。” 中华会馆建立于1910年之时,主要是迎 合当时男士为主的少数华人之需。到了1970年 年代后期,由于年青会员人数剧增,位于北桥 的会馆已无法容纳日益增加的会员。1980年 会长吴明山发起了募捐行动,筹募基金建立 新会所。1984年,会馆花了95,500元买下了位 于Balcatta面积共2.669公顷的地。1985年6月30 日,会馆付清了买地的钱。此超低价格的地产 买卖的条件之一,就是限定中华会馆必须在成 交后的十年内有规模地发展此地。

1993年9月份当选会长之后, 月份当选会长之后,张仕煌就 肩负起1910年以来时间最长、 年以来时间最长、责任最大的任 务。1994年1月常委会批准产业开发小组开始 月常委会批准产业开发小组开始 进行中华文化中心的第一阶段和第二阶段建设 工程。四年之后在张仕煌任期结束之前,这座 中华文化中心落成了。他表示,当时华人社区的 鼎力支持和坚定的信念是成就这项任务最关 键因素。 然而,中华文化中心的落成只是这项建筑 工程的一部分。这幅地的工程计划还包括建立 秋园养老院及中文学校。张仕煌在有生之年的 心愿,就是希望华人社区可以再次团结一致, 同心协力给这个工程留下完美的句号,使整个 西澳华人社区共享其果。 步入人生古稀之年,张仕煌仍会把部分 的时间寄情于建立了三十年的生意上。悠闲的 日子里,他喜欢与自己的孩子孙子共享天伦之 乐。古语说: “前人种树,后人乘凉”,张老觉 得骄傲的是他所付出给华人社区的奉献,也有 利于自己的后代。


中华人物专访 PROFILE INTERVIEW

As the old Chinese saying goes, “plant a tree, for it provides shade for generations to come”, James believes having the project fully completed will highly benefit the future generations. James is now over 70 years old. Besides devoting his time on keeping his thirty-year family business running, he likes to spend his time with his beautiful daughters and grandchildren. He is proud that he has done his part for the community that will benefit his offspring.

In the early 1970s, James Chong came to Western Australia to further his studies in accountancy. It was his relationship with his late wife, Anita Chong OAM, that brought him to this destination. James Chong had gone through the transition and he was the first batch of graduates awarded the Bachelor’s Degree in Accountancy by Curtin University. Curtin University was known as WA Institute of Technology before it was granted the status of university. Unlike many overseas students paying high university tuition fees today, James enjoyed the free university education policy under the Gough Whitlam government back then for his entire three years’ tertiary education. In 1977, James joined Chung Wah Association on the introduction of his wife. For the past 40 years, James has been actively involved in the developments and events of the local Chinese community.

support of their families and other members of the Chinese community.”

James & Chung Wah Balcatta centre

In the 1990s, when the Executive Committee elections of Chung Wah Association were still being held on an annual basis, James was a rare candidate who had won the presidency for five consecutive years. Within the five years’ term in office, his determination and organisation skills, in conjunction with a team of passionate volunteers, had strongly contributed to the construction of Chung Wah Cultural Centre in Balcatta.

When the present Chung Wah Hall on James Street was built in 1910, it met the needs of a small, mainly male Chinese community. In the late 1970s, with an ever-increasing younger population, the Hall could no longer cater for all the needs of its members. Dr. Goh Bean San, the President in 1980, set the wheels of progress in motion with the aim of funding a new home for the Association. By 1984, this course of action led to the Association buying the Balcatta land for $ 95,500. The purchase price was paid off on 30 June 1985. One of the conditions to fulfil for this property deal, as it was way under the market price, was that Chung Wah Association must have structured development on this land within ten years once it was settled.

As President, he quoted at the opening speech of Chung Wah Cultural Centre, “It was not by accident that the Association is now the strength and soul of Perth’s Chinese community. The members, who have served on every Executive Committee, subcommittee or group, have all performed their duties and responsibilities on a voluntary basis. These people have often had the unseen and unsung

Since James was elected as the President of the Association, he undertook this huge long term commitment, the scale of which had not been seen since 1910. In January 1994, the Executive Committee gave approval to the Property Development Committee to proceed with the development of stages 1 and 2 of the approved plans. The Chung Wah Balcatta Hall

James & Chung Wah Association

was completed within four years. James believed that the strong support and great optimism of the Chinese community was the major factor for the completion of the Chung Wah cultural centre. James stepped down as a long-serving president at the following elections, after the Balcatta hall was completed. However, as he mentioned, the development project did not end with the hall. James was hoping to see a solid team effort from the Chinese community once again to fully develop the spacious land with Chung Wah Autumn Centre and the Chinese School.

Asian travellers’ visit a boost to WA tourism 亚洲游客给西澳旅游刮起旋风 文/译◎Elvie YAP叶俐廷

T

he 2016 Census has revealed that over a quarter of Australia’s population in 2016 was born overseas (26.3 per cent) and for the first time since colonisation, most of the overseas-born population came from Asia rather than Europe. Migrants make up 32 percent of the population of Western Australia. Asian immigrants are typically much younger than European immigrants. There is no doubt that the significant increase in the Asianborn population in Western Australia has been one of the major factors for the increased number of Asian traveller to this beautiful state. In June 2017, Tourism WA launched a new international campaign to target the Visiting Friends and Relatives (VFR) market. People who visit friends and relatives make up 48 percent of the total overnight market in Australia, while 17 percent of all West Australians were born in either one of the key international markets of Tourism WA. 2016澳大利亚人口普查的结果显示超过四 分之一(26.3%)的澳大利亚人口出生于海 外。自殖民时期至今,出生海外的人口当中来 自亚洲的人口首次超越来自欧洲的移民。 西澳的人口有32%是海外移民。亚裔的移 民人口普遍比欧裔的移民年轻。出生于亚洲的 人口快速增长,无疑促使大量亚裔游客来观光 这美丽的西澳。 今年六月,西澳旅游局推出了一项国际运 动来助长亲人朋友探访的市场。在澳大利亚, 游客在澳过夜的统计数字显示48%是来自亲人 朋友探访的市场,而西澳17%的人口是出生在西 澳旅游局的主要国际市场之一。

Insight from Tourism WA 西澳 旅 游局 Tourism WA shared with our editorial team some of the strategies and action plans used to promote Western Australia to Asian markets such as China, Singapore and Malaysia. Tourism WA CEO, Steve Wood, said “Tourism WA’s 2020 Strategy includes a focus on Asia to help the State increase the value of tourism in WA from $10 billion to $12 billion. “Asian markets, such as China, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia, are dominant contributors to international visitation growth in WA.

西澳旅游局的执行总裁,Steve Wood 说 年策略,其中包括把焦 道: “西澳旅游的2020年策略, 点放在亚洲市场,帮助西澳提高旅游的收益, 从一百亿增加至一百二十亿。 亚洲市场包括中国、新加坡、马来西亚和 印尼,是西澳国际游客增长的关键贡献国。 西澳旅游的策略重点放在消费者推广、增 加航班、加强工业和商务来往和合伙关系。

“Tourism WA’s strategy focuses on consumer marketing, aviation access, industry and trade development, and partnerships.

“西澳的每一天”运动在去年推出,着重 于游客的个人体验,已经在主要的国际市场包 括中国、新加坡和马来西亚展开。

“Just Another Day in WA is a campaign which was launched last year, focusing on visitors’ personal experiences. It was rolled out in key international markets, including China, Singapore and Malaysia.

西澳旅游也与中国南方航空、新加坡航空 和其他合作伙伴携手进行市场推广。

“Tourism WA also undertakes co-operative marketing with China Southern, Singapore Airlines and other partners. “Strong partnerships are also an important part of our strategy. For example, last year, Tourism WA signed an agreement with online travel platform, Alitrip, to promote the State as an extraordinary holiday destination to millions of Chinese consumers.”

西澳旅游局向我们的编辑组,披露了他们 向亚洲市场如中国、新加坡和马来西亚宣扬西 澳旅游的策略和方案。

巩固合作关系也是我们策略的重要一环。 比方说,去年西澳旅 游与网上旅游平台, “ 阿里旅游”签订协议, 向千千万万的中国消 费者推广西澳为一个 非一般旅游目的地。

蝶恋花 —— 渡南洋 之一 人在边缘路彷徨。 远渡重洋,只为年少狂。 回望有如昨日梦,醒来已是一年茫。 物转星移几多常。 苟存于世,岂能无名堂? 有志于心苦不当,星星点点有我亮! ——2004年11月15日于珀斯,抵澳一周年 蝶恋花

地。无论是置身于海边、树林或是开车经过一 片片农田,时间仿佛都是静止的,眼睛看到的 景物,就像照片一样刻在脑子里。

for a city in which I've lived for over a decade, even when I've only left for a very short time, when I left the airport it feels like a lifetime ago.

我喜欢生活在这样的景色中,但实在不 敢想,十年、二十年以后的自己是在哪里。地 球的另一端,永远是家乡,不管时隔多久回 去,总有莫名的亲切感。而生活了十几年的城 市,即使只是短暂的离开,一出机场,感觉恍 如隔世。

Maybe life is like this; just like the me many years ago hadn't really thought as far ahead as now. I plan to make the most of what's in front of us, and treasure the family that I've worked so hard for. It almost doesn't matter where I live, so long as I am happy.

也许人生即是如此,正如多年前的自己也 不曾想到现在。把握眼前,珍惜苦心经营的家 庭,无论生活在哪个角落,总是幸福的就好。

—— 渡南洋 之二 仍在边缘路张望, 两年风雨,已若历沧桑。 镜中容颜似当年,谁知悲愁心头怆。 无奈心决此方向, 大步向前,不再悔恨怅。 只是异国风景好,不如家中饭菜香。 --- 2005年11月13日于珀斯,抵澳两周年 蝶恋花 —— 渡南洋 之三 边缘路途渐宽广。 三载朝夕,回顾道漫长。 读书毕业成夙愿,安家觅职谱新章。 喜得郎君美上妆。 甜蜜恩爱,无事藏心房。 料得年年月月日,夫妻携手创辉煌。 ——2006年11月12日于珀斯,抵澳三周年 翻看初来澳洲几年写的几篇打油诗,生 活,的确是一年好过一年。十四年前,无论如 何也想不到自己会在异乡的土地扎根、发芽。 第一次踏上这片大地时,前途未知,没有半个 亲人知己,身上有的,只是燃烧不尽的青春。 后来为什么选择留下,其实也没什么特别 的原因。移民,只是选择之一而已。在当年,有 机会移民其实是我人生的岔路口,甚至希望自 己不要有多种选择,那样就可以义无反顾地 回国了。 事实是,我留下了。然后顺理成章的工 作、结婚、生子。直到老三出生,才惊觉,原 来,我已经在异国生活了10年! 我爱澳洲的蓝天大海,爱这片广袤的土

Looking back at the several poems I wrote within a few years after I migrated to Australia, life indeed got better as the years passed. I would have never been able to imagine fourteen years ago that I would grow roots and continue to grow on foreign soil. When I first set foot on to this land, my future was unknown, and I was without the company of family nor friends; what I had on me was endless youthful energy to burn. As to why I chose to stay, actually there wasn't any special reason. Migrating was only one of several options. Back then, having the opportunity to migrate was actually finding myself at the crossroads of life. I'd actually wished I didn't have so many choices, then I could have simply moved back home without needing to give it that much thought. But what happened was - I stayed. And then what followed was working, getting married, starting a family... it wasn't until my third child was born that I suddenly realised: I'd actually been living in this foreign country for a decade! I love Australia's blue sky and the sea; I also love this vast piece of land. Whether I'm by the seaside, in the forest or if I was driving past fields after fields of crops, time seemed to have stood still. Scenarios I saw with my eyes have been etched in my mind like photographs. I like living in such a beautiful environment; but I really cannot imagine where I will be living ten or even twenty years from now. My hometown on other side of the earth will always be my home. It doesn't matter how much time has lapsed since I'd last been back, when I do go back, there is still that familiar feeling of comfort. On the other hand,

Multiculturalism 多元文化主义 文◎Rex Lau刘国伟 译◎Helene Fung冯恺盈

When I was a university student in Australia back twenty-odd years ago, “Multiculturalism” was not a popular word that that you could hear very often over the media nor in day-to-day life; but it was a phenomenon that you could see and feel in every walk in the university campus. Students from different countries talked to each other to share their stories about their hometowns, cooked yummy food in celebration of international food festivals, learnt from each other about their respective cultures in University “house warming” and “house cooling” parties. Our university praised Multiculturalism. In designing the new dormitory for the international students, I was one of representatives in the committee and travelled interstate to Deakin University to observe the design of their newly built international student dormitory. We brought back lots of design ideas for our new dormitory. On campus, you did not need to consciously think about or talk about what is Multiculturalism, because Multiculturalism had already permeated deeply inside in every aspect of university student life.

However, when I stepped outside the university campus, Multiculturalism seemed less prominent. My feeling of being a second class citizen indicated that I was not so well-integrated into Australia community. The most prominent connection between myself and Australia would probably be through bonding with my Aussie classmates, and by watching SBS. I remembered that the advertisement of the SBS itself on its radio program was with an emphasis on “Speaking your language”. After some twenty-odd years, Australians generally have become more aware of and treasure Multiculturalism. From “Speaking your language” to “Australian’s multicultural and multilingual broadcaster”, the National Multicultural Festival in Canberra, and the sixth annual Chinese New Year fair in Perth. The seeds of Multiculturalism sowed back in my university days have taken some time to geminate, to flourish and to grow roots into every Australian’s heart. I am glad to see Multiculturalism is more prominent these days, and has become a bigger part of the social norm in Australia.

二十几 年 前,当我 还是 个留澳 大学生 时, “多元文化主义”并非一个在传媒或者在 日常生活中常常听到的词;但它是一个在大学 校园你可以每每看到和感受到的现象。来自不 同国家的学生会互相分享来自家乡的故事,煮 各种佳肴来庆祝国际美食节,又透过大学里各 种入伙/迁出派对互相学习各自的风土民情。 我的大学很崇尚多元文化。设计新的国 际学生宿舍时,我还被委任作代表,穿州过省 去到Deakin大学去考察他们刚刚建好的国际 学生宿舍;我们带回了很多设计意见供校方参 考。在校园里,你根本不需要特别思考甚至提 起什么是多元文化;因为多元文化已经深深地 渗透大学生活的每一环。 不过,当我离开校园,多元文化却好像式 微了。我觉得自己像二等公民的感觉,似乎显 示我并没有如我想象般地融入澳洲社区。我 和澳洲之间最强的联系应该是我和澳洲同学 之间的友谊,和看SBS电视台的节目。我记得 SBS自己在电台卖广告时的宣传重点是“讲你 的语言”。 二十几年后,澳洲人总括来说是比较知 道和欣赏多元文化。从“讲你的语言”到“澳 洲的多元文化多种语言广播者”,堪培拉的国 家多元文化节,到珀斯第六届的盛大农历新 年文化节中可以感受到。在我学生时代种下 那些多元文化主义的种子经过了好长的时间 才开始发芽、成长和扎根在澳洲人的心中。 我很高兴看到现在多元文化的存在比较明 显,亦已经成为澳洲生活和社会惯例中更重 要的一部分。

Chinese Program Coordinator Oberthur Primary School delivering the lessons. The Immersion Program teachers utilise body language and visual aids in addition to interactive games, songs, experiments and group activities, as well as a range of interesting teaching methods to guide the students through learning in the subjects taught in Chinese. The school has planned to progressively extend the program each year from PP (2013) to Year 6 (2019).

董老师(Daojuan Dong) 教导学生学习礼貌用语。

Choosing Chinese (Mandarin) as the second language to learn at school is no doubt a strong preference or intention of many families in Australia with a Chinese background. Languages is one of the eight areas identified in the Western Australian Curriculum and Assessment Outline. There is currently a decline in the percentage of students studying a language in Western Australian public primary schools. One of the reasons for this decline is the difficulty in enhancing and achieving ongoing development of language skills in one session per week, which is typically 40-60 minutes. One of the concerns is that non-Chinesespeaking students struggle to compete with native speakers, something backed up by statistics, which show around 94 per cent of non-native students drop the language by year 10. In 2015, of the 4,000 students doing Chinese in year 12 nationally in 2015, no more than 400 were from a non-Chinese background. 在 澳大 利 亚,许多华人 家 庭无 疑都强烈希望孩子可以在学校学习 中文为第二语言。语言是西澳教育提 纲和测试标准中八项科目之一。 在西澳的公立小 学,学生 选 择 学习语言的比率普遍下滑。导致下滑 的原因之一 是 普遍认为,语言技巧 的掌 握难以在每周一堂课(一 般四 十至六十分钟)得到提升。 数据显示,94%的非华裔学生 到十年级会放弃学习中文。2015年, 全国四千名十二年级报考中文的考 生中,少于四百名是非华裔。

Outstanding Achievement of the Chinese Immersion Program – Oberthur Primary School The Principal, Mr. Tim Bamber, and the Chinese Program Coordinator, Ms. Jieqi Zhang, of Oberthur Primary School shared with our editorial team their insight on the implementation of its innovative Chinese Immersion Program in Western Australia. Oberthur Primary School commenced an excellent and successful Chinese language and culture orientated program in 2005, and since then, Chinese language has been the compulsory second language of the school. All students learned Chinese language and culture two hours every week. Traditional Chinese dance and Chinese martial arts (wushu) classes were established in 2008 to help students to further develop their interest in learning Chinese. The idea of applying the Chinese Immersion Program was nurtured in 2011 after considering the successful outcomes in schools in America, Canada and the Eastern States that implemented the program under a bilingual teaching model. In April 2011, Tim Bamber and the Jieqi Zhang visited schools in Melbourne that had been running successful language bilingual/immersion programs. After a detailed feasibility study and several parent committee meetings, the school decided to implement the program in 2013 with the support of 95% of parents at the time. Since then, Oberthur Primary has become the first and only pioneer school that has the Chinese Immersion Program as a bilingual teaching model in WA. It applies the Content and Language Integrated Learning – David Marsh 1994 that enables students to learn the Australian Education Curriculum in both English and Chinese. Currently, the Chinese Immersion Program from pre-primary to Year 4 has a total of fifteen classes with six and a half hours of lessons conducted in Chinese. These lessons cover part of the mathematics, science, arts, physical education (pre-primary) and Chinese language classes. Teachers of the Chinese Immersion Program and the English teaching staff work together in

In the process of learning the respective subjects, the reading, writing, speaking and listening skills of students in Chinese have also improved. Students are able to ask simple questions and have simple conversations with teachers in Chinese. The Chinese Immersion Bilingual Teaching Program of Oberthur Primary School is a success. This is proven by the 2016 and 2017 NAPLAN results of the school, which were excellent and ranked in the top five best public schools for the past two years. Its Chinese Immersion Program has created a positive influence amongst schools in WA and is well accepted by many parents. The number of students has increased from over four hundred to more than six hundred students. The first batch of students trained under the Chinese Immersion Program are graduating in the year 2020 and the school is actively discussing with relevant high schools on how to ensure that these students can continue to sustain their Chinese language learning when they enter secondary education.

Challenges and difficulties in expanding the Chinese Immersion Program Every year, the school may need to recruit additional teaching staff and purchase and renew bilingual teaching resources and equipment, in order to progressively extend the Chinese Immersion Program each year to a higher level, as well as to ensure the smooth development in teaching and learning. Funding and the increased number of students have presented the school with the challenge of maintaining the professional training of teaching staff in order to maintain and further develop the bilingual teaching model. In addition, the amount and ways of preparation needed for delivering the required education syllabus purely in Chinese within a limited teaching time is also a challenge faced by the teaching staff. The school believes that these challenges can be managed and that the Chinese Immersion Bilingual Teaching Program will continue to strengthen at Oberthur Primary with the strong support and effort of teachers, students, parents and the Education Department.

Benefits of bilingual education from an early age

幼年开始接受 双语教育的好处 Five to six years old is the golden period for the brain development of a child. Recent studies from the Institute for Learning and Brain Sciences of the University of Washington have shown that, for children raised under a bilingual environment, their brain can sustain a longer period in learning and they have more flexibility in thinking and stronger cognitive control. Being trained to switch between languages at a young age helps them to form an ability to adapt to changes in circumstances. In other words, they have better performance in self-control, problem solving and creativity than the monolingual population.

Chinese Learning Program after school hours 课外中文学习课程 The Community Languages Program, an initiative of The Office of Multicultural Interests, provides financial support to not-for-profit community organisations to teach languages other than English as well as cultural maintenance programs after school hours.

社区语言项目,是由西澳多元文化部 办公室倡议来资助非营利社区机构,在课 外时间办英语以外的社区语言学习课程, 同时保存民族文化。 中华会馆的三所中文学校也因此项目而受 惠。此拨款的目的在于让不同语言文化的 族群,可以继续学习自己的母语来与家人 和社区里的其他人沟通。

The three Chung Wah Chinese schools are also recipients of this funding. The main purpose of the grant is to maintain languages spoken by members of cultural/linguistic groups in Western Australia in order to communicate with family members and people within their community.

Imagine coming to a foreign land alone and not knowing the language, how desirable it is for you to know someone speaking the same language as you. Going through the souvenir anniversary publication of Chung Wah Association, the idea of Chinese language teaching was nurtured in 1923 at the Wesley Church, where senior members of the Association talked informally to children attending the Sunday school. But it was only until the year 1974 when the Executive Committee of the Association, with Mr. Ken Sue as President, started a Chinese school to give the members’ children the opportunity to learn Mandarin at the Association Hall, with twelve students attending the first class. In 1980, the school was relocated to West Leederville Primary School. It was the year that Chung Wah Chinese school received Commonwealth funding under the Ethnic School Grant Program. In 1984, Mrs. Anita Chong OAM was made Principal with the

assistance of her then deputy, Mrs. Trinh Quach. The school by then had fifty students and three teachers. This first Chung Wah Chinese school was relocated to Morley Senior High in 1993 till today. In the third term of 1985, the West Lynwood branch of Chung Wah Chinese school was started in response to requests from parents living south of the river. This branch relocated to Rossmoyne High School in 2011. The newest campus of the Chung Wah Chinese school, the Leeming Chinese school, started in 1991. Today, the Chung Wah Association runs three Chinese schools with an enrolment to date of in excess of 1,500 students. The schools provide the facilities and opportunities for students to learn; listen, speak, read and write Chinese (Mandarin), and to gain a greater appreciation of the Chinese culture and tradition.

陈水玉是中华摩利中文学校的校长。 自2001年,她开始在中华周末学校执教。除 自 了在社区学校教中文,陈校长也在当地学 校担任中文教师多年。她的全职中文教师的 工作始于 工作始于Chisholm 天主教中学,是她在该校 创始了中文课。目前,她是 她是John Septimus Roe 圣公会社区学校的语言部主管,同时也是该 校的初中和高中的学生的中文导师。 陈校长提及,随着中国经济的快速崛 起,中文在澳大利亚是一种许多人争相学习 的热门语言。不少商业机构纷纷鼓励员工学 习中文。家长们设法让孩子在当地学校学习 中文,同时也尽量报读周末中文课程。在中 华摩利中文学校,还有大学学生报读成人 班学中文。这些学生深信无论是哪个专业, 只要能掌握双语尤其是中文,就可以让他们 在找工作方面有优势。 Emily TTan is the Principal of Chung Wah Morley Chinese school. She started teaching in the Chung Wah weekend school in 2001. Besides teaching Chinese in a community school, Emily has been a qualified Chinese Mandarin teaching staff at mainstream day schools for years. Her full time Chinese teaching career started from Chisholm Catholic College where she initiated the Chinese language subject for the school. Currently, Emily is the Head of Department for Foreign and Community Language of John Septimus Roe Anglican Community School, as well as the Mandarin teacher for the middle and senior secondary students of the school. As she said, Mandarin is a popular language learned in Australia due to the rapid growth of China’s economy. Many commercial agencies send their staff for Chinese education. Many parents try to send their children to day schools for Chinese learning and also weekend schools for extra Chinese lessons. At Chung Wah Morley Chinese school, we have university students enrolled in our adult lessons. These students believe that being bilingual, especially in Chinese language, could give them an advantage and a better opportunity in job seeking, regardless of what course they are doing.

Xuanli MA 马烜历

马烜历是中华乐思中文学校的校长。上 世纪九十年代初到珀斯的马校长,当时珀斯的 中文教育在很多地区基本处于缺失状态,开办 中文课程的主流学校寥寥无几,只有极少的 学校教授中文。以Nedlands地区为例,在1996 年,该地区还没有一所教授普通话及简化字的 学校。正是由于当时没有学校能够满足该地区 孩子学习中文的要求,一些在西澳大学工作学 习的中国学者家庭以“各尽所能,合作互助” 的形式开办了博士娃中文学校,作为开办者之 一,马校长也就此和海外中文教育结下了不解 之缘。 马校长提及,近年来随着中国国际地位 的提高及文化软实力的日益提升,中国官方语 言汉语的地位也越来越高。西澳的中文教育形 势也乘此东风,出现了可喜的发展势头。 “根据西澳中文教师协会统计,现在西 澳已经有69所中小学开办了中文课程。” 展望未来,种种迹象足以让马校长相信 西澳的中文教育有着广阔的发展前景。 根据澳大利亚统计局今年报告,华人已 成为澳大利亚最大的少数民族之一,中文也 成为英语之外使用人数最多的少数民族语言, 中文在澳大利亚人日常生活中的交际实用性 越来越强。 再次,中澳两国对中文教育的支持力度 都在日益增大。在澳大利亚方面,政府于2012 年宣布了《亚洲世纪中的澳大利亚》白皮书, 把中文列在政府鼓励并提供机会让所有的澳 洲学生从小学开始学习的四门主要亚洲语言 之首。 在中国方面,汉办及侨办在海外中文教 师培训及教材方面都有支持项目,侨办还每年 举办“海外青少年寻根之旅”夏(冬)令营活 动,提供机会让海外华裔子弟回到祖籍国,近 距离了解中国,了解中华文化。

Xuanli is the Principal of Chung Wah Rossmoyne Chinese school. She mentioned that when she first came to Perth in the 1990s, Chinese language education scarcely existed in many suburbs, with a very limited number of day schools providing Mandarin as a second language. In 1996, none of the schools in Nedlands offered Chinese as a language subject. To many Chinese scholars who were working in the University of Western Australia like her, they were desperately looking for a Chinese language learning place for their children. In order to fulfil the demand for Chinese learning, she was one of the founders who established a Chinese learning community school, the Perth WA Chinese school. Since then, her journey in the development of overseas Chinese education has never ended. Principal Ma indicated that the increasing awareness in Chinese culture, as well as the rise in the international status of China, have strongly assisted the growth of Chinese language education in Western Australia. “According to the statistics provided by The Chinese Language Teachers Association of Western Australia, currently there are sixty-nine primary or secondary schools teaching Chinese Mandarin as a second language.” Many supporting reasons have made Principal Ma believe that Chinese language education in Western Australia has a bright future. As revealed in the 2016 Census, the Chinese population is one of the biggest ethnic communities in Western Australia. In addition, Mandarin is the most commonly spoken language other than English. Mandarin has been widely used in the daily living in Perth. The political and economic ties between Australia and China are increasingly strengthened and they complement each other. Both the Australian and Chinese governments have been very supportive to Chinese education. In Australia, the release of the 2012 Asian Century White Paper has made the Chinese language one of the four major Asian languages learned in primary education. On the other hand, the Chinese government are providing training and workshops to overseas Chinese teachers, as well as supplying teaching resources for schools. Its overseas Chinese offices also organise summer and winter camps for students to visit and explore China through these educational programs.

Today, many parents are doing what they can to find places for children to study Chinese as a second language, in order to sustain the culture as well as provide every chance for their children to be a part of the Asian Century. 今时今日,许多家长绞尽脑汁给孩子学习中文为第二语言,不仅为了让源远流长的中华文化得以传承下去,同时也在给孩子创

薰衣草

薰衣草本身就是一种非常具有吸 引力的灌木植物。若想让它变更抢眼, 可以沿着小径种一丛丛的薰衣草来划 分界线。

怎样自制薰衣草干?

收集一堆花,在最后一组叶上面剪短茎部。

Lavender Lavender will gather plenty of attention as a stand-alone shrub. For extra impact, plant groups along paths to create borders.

泥土

薰衣草需要排水力好的泥土。它们较喜 欢碱性土,但如果在轻酸性土上先撒一些云 石石灰之后才种的话,它们还是会愉快地生 长的。

水分

一束手掌足以紧握的薰衣草花束,用橡皮筋 或者麻绳绑住那束花的底部。

它们在落地生根之后比较可以忍受干燥 的环境。在炎夏中,加些干木碎来覆盖根部可 以帮助维持土壤的适当湿度。

将这束花倒吊挂在一个阴暗和干爽的地方 (例如橱柜或者后院储物室)至少一个星期。

修剪

我可以怎样种它们呢? 气候

薰衣草是很坚固和热爱阳光的植物;对 霜也有一定的抵抗能力。它们比较喜欢温和 及偏凉的气候,不喜欢高湿度。

在夏末期间,开完花后把灌木剪至高度 的三分之二。这样可以保持它们的形状和元 气,防止它们在冬天只剩残枝的状态。

施肥

修剪后,施放慢性吸收的肥料可以确保 更多花蕾盛放。在开花季节,加些专门给花果 的液体肥料。

How to dry your own Lavender Collect a bundle of flowers, cutting stems above the last set of leaves. When you have enough blossoms to fill your hand, wrap a rubber band around the bottom of the bundle or tie with twine. Hang the bundle upside down in a dark, dry place, such as your pantry or shed, for a week or more.

How can I grow them? Climate Lavenders are hardy, sun-loving plants and moderately frostresistant. They prefer temperate and cool climates and don’t like high humidity. Soil Lavender require a well-draining soil. They prefer alkaline conditions, though will grow happily in mildly acidic soils with lime dolomite before planting. Water They tolerate dry conditions once established. In the height of summer, mulch around the roots to help maintain even moisture levels in the soil. Pruning Clip shrubs back to two thirds their size in late summer after flowering has finished. This will maintain shape and vigour, preventing them becoming too woody during winter. Fertiliser After pruning, an application of slow-release fertiliser will ensure plenty of blooms. While in bloom, apply a liquid fertiliser formulated for flowers and fruit.

How to choose the right extracurricular activities for our three to seven year old children? 如何给三 到 七岁的 孩子 选 择 课 外活 动 ? 文/译◎Elvie Yap叶俐廷

Music, ballet, gymnastics, tennis, swimming, you name it. Choosing from the vast array of extracurricular activities available to young children can be a difficult decision for both children and parents. As a guide for our parent readers, our editorial team has recorded the experiences from seven mothers through various social media. In addition, we provides you with the perspectives of education specialists from both Western and Chinese backgrounds respectively. 从音乐、芭蕾舞、体操、网球、游泳,数之不尽的课外活动中选择几项,是现代父母和小孩子的一道难题。我们的编采组特别通过几个 社交媒体询问了七位妈妈的经验分享。与此同时,我们也特别在这专题上,刊登分别来自东西方文化背景的专家建议。

What the Western specialists have to say?

What a Chinese education specialist has to say?

A former New York City schoolteacher and speech language pathologist, Rachel Cortese said “Kids tend to do really well when they have structure, and part of that structure is having an after-school schedule.”

According to the Deputy Secretary of Parents and Teachers Management Committee in China, as well as a family education specialist, Dr. QuZhao, parents need to take into account a few considerations before selecting extracurricular activities for their children. Firstly, the parent has to be aware that the choice of lessons is for their children, not the parents, therefore it is necessary to be realistic for the individual child to learn. In addition, it is also important to respect the interests of the child and their development in exploring their interest.

A clinical psychologist, Dr. Mary Rooney said “More recreational activities outside of school, whether it’s sports, dance, theatre, science, gives kids another arena to demonstrate competence and mastery, which is important for their self-esteem and identity development—especially for kids who might be struggling in school.”

西方专家怎么说? Rachel

Cortese是美国纽约的前教师也是

语言病理学家,她表示: “在有结构性安排的 情况下包括有规划的课外安排,孩子的表现 会很不错。” Mary Rooney博士是临床心理学家,她提 及: “多样的课外消遣活动,不管是运动类、

Secondly, it is important that parents pay attention to the process of learning the extracurricular lessons, and observe the attitude of the child in the lesson. It would be best if a parent could also attend the lessons with their children personally. Learning together with children is a great motivation for the child. Finally, if the child has totally no interest or cannot adapt to the lessons, it is important to respect the choice of the child.

舞蹈、戏剧、科学都是一个给孩子证明和掌握 技能的平台,这对孩子提高自我价值和身份认 知的能力至关重要,尤其在学习上有困难的孩 子帮助更大。” 资料来源 Reference : https://childmind.org/article/finding-the-balance-with-after-school-activities/ dated 27 sept 17

东方专家怎么说? 中国家长与教师合作管理委员会副秘书 长、著名家庭教育专家翟召博表示。家长给孩 子选择兴趣班的时候,一定要注意几个问题。 首先,做父母的要明确:是“给孩子选 报”兴趣班,不是“给家长选的”。所以,挑选 兴趣班的时候,一定要从孩子的实际出发,尊 重孩子的兴趣指向和兴趣发展水平, 第二,要关注孩子参加兴趣班的过程,了 解情况,洞察孩子的动态。家长最好也亲身参 与孩子的兴趣班的学习和训练,跟孩子一起当 学生. 第三,如果孩子不能适应兴趣班的学习, 要尊重孩子的选择。 资料来源 Reference http://inews.ifeng.com/51172635/news.shtml? srctag=pc2m&back&back

Experience Sharing

经验分享 Amanda Li 李慧敏

Today’s children are exposed to a huge variety of new things. It is a great challenge for parents to choose the right activity for their children and keep them learning it for the long term. Personally, I think we have to consider the personality of individual children, whether they are extrovert or introvert. Secondly, select an activity based on their age. Thirdly, find out their interest. I have two girls who have distinct personalities. My elder one is pretty introverted and she likes reading, writing and music. She ended up learning piano, dancing and drawing. On the other hand, my younger daughter is more sporty and she is learning karate and swimming.

Linda Wong

For me, I enrolled my children in activities that I think would benefit them,

for

example,

singing and dancing, ice skating and selfdefence, karate. That is because I myself like these activities. Sports, like football, are not my cup of tea. Having said that, I found myself choosing activities for my children which were based on my own interest. 对我而言,我给孩子选择我认为 对孩子有益的活动,比如:唱歌、跳 舞、溜冰和空手道。原因是我喜欢这些 项目,至于运动类如足球,我就不感兴 趣。这样一说,我发现似乎给孩子选择 的活动,取决于我的个人兴趣。

Talk to the child right before enrolment to ensure it is their own choice, and emphasise to them not to give up easily. As parents, we can also reward them after they complete each stage of the lesson. Not necessarily in material form, we can also bring them to places relevant to their lessons, such as art galleries, theme parks and museums, etc. I believe a hobby is the best teacher for children. Children will enjoy the lesson when their interest is developed.

大家好,今天想跟大家交流一下如何对待子女选择兴趣班的问题。现在的小孩从小 接触的新事物很多,如何从中选出适合小孩的活动并且让他们持之以恒就要考父母了。

Teresa Tan

I believe we should provide opportunities to our children to expose them to as many activities as possible, in order to discover their interest and talent from young. My priority was to enrol them in activities that required them to learn from a very young age, for example, piano, violin, ballet, swimming and gymnastics, etc. Do not force children to remain in the activity lessons if they have no interest at all. 我认为如果从少可以发掘孩子的 潜能,先要给机会他们接触不同的活 动,从而看看她们的兴趣在那里。一些 活动要求从小学习的是首选,如钢琴、 小提琴、芭蕾舞、游泳、体操等。但是 如果孩子尝试后觉得没有兴趣,就可 以转换活动,不能过份强迫。

Janice Yeung

Usually, we ask our child first for his thoughts before we enrol him in a specific extracurricular activity. Based on our experience, the child will not enjoy the lesson and he will not perform well in the activity if he has no interest in it. Some time ago, we enrolled our child in AFL football, however he always refused to attend or participate in the game. Eventually, we found out that he was afraid of being hit by the football. Not long after, we asked him whether he was interested in joining swimming and he accepted it happily. He has been enjoying his swimming lessons up to now.

总的来说,有几点参考,第一:小孩的性格特点,属于文静还是好动;第二:年龄,适 合的年龄参与适合的活动;第三:从孩子的兴趣出发。基于以上三点给小孩做出选择, 家长平时就要善于观察小孩的兴趣爱好与性格特点,适当时给予引导。 我家有两个女孩,一个好安静,喜欢看书写作音乐,另外一个好动,喜欢运动打拳跑 步,因此针对她们的特点,老大选了钢琴跳舞画画,而老二选了空手道游泳,根据年龄,一 年学一个新的兴趣,不仅家长不用一下负担太多,而且让小朋友也有个适应过程。

我们在帮小孩选择兴趣班时,会 先询问一下小孩的意愿,因为经验告 诉我们,要是小孩对那项目不感兴趣 的话,他在学习的过程中不会享受,也 会影响学习。我们曾经让我们家的小 孩去参加澳洲足球班,可是小孩每次

球撞到。後来我们问他愿不愿意学游

有句话说,兴趣才是最好的老师。只要培养他们真正喜欢上某项爱好,他们就会享受 爱好所带来的欢乐和成就,这才是我们父母让孩子参加兴趣班的意义所在。

泳,他就很乐意,到现在还是开开心 心的去上游泳课。

《家乡的碧流河》 我的家乡在中国大连市的一个美丽的小山庄。村庄的四周是高高的山,山上的森林茂密旺盛,遍地野花开放,还有很多的小溪

和泉水,从山上流下来形成了一条条小河。这些小河有深的、有浅的、有宽的、也有窄的,各不相同。是这里的最美丽的风景。其中最 大的,也是最有名的一条河是“碧流河”。

碧流河长150多公里,流经好几个县市。她不但能发电和泄洪,更重要的是她承担着大连市区70%的城市饮用水。站在河坝下

面的大桥上仰头看着雄伟的河坝,比旁边的4层楼房还高,正面的河坝上写着“碧流河水库”5个巨大的红字。

大坝的两旁种了很多整整齐齐的松树。沿着石阶走上坝顶,一眼望去,水库好大,景色好美。水非常的清澈,蓝天和白云倒影在

Safety tips 安全小贴士 文◎WA Police西澳警方提供 译◎Helene Fung冯恺盈

Safety for seniors Contrary to belief, seniors still only represent a very small percentage of crime victims. Research has shown that those who appear confident and take security precautions are less likely to become victims of crime. By introducing a few common sense practises into your daily routine you can give yourself, your family, friends and neighbours a much greater peace of mind.

Ensure your house number is clearly visible. Never tell anyone that you are at home alone for example trades or delivery people. Trim trees and bushes to allow a clear view of your home (this will remove hiding places for possible offenders). Don’t leave keys in obvious places, such as under pot plants or in the meter box. Make sure handbags and wallets are not left in sight for example on bench tops or cupboards. Install security screens and grilles. Fit deadlocks and key locks to doors and windows. Install motion sensor floodlights. Think about installing an alarm system.

家人或朋友和邻居更加安心。

The telephone ephone is probably your most important means of communication, however there are some criminals in society that will use it to their advantage. Always hang up on unwelcome callers. Never give your name or address to unknown telephone callers. Don’t disclose that you live alone or that you may be away from your home. Never disclose any personal or financial information. Invest in an answering machine.

养生之道 GOOD HEALTH

Power Couples 高效配对 译◎Helene Fung冯恺盈

As written by Karen Fittall in a local magazine “Good Health” February 2017 edition, some food work better when they are eaten together. Try these pairings to absorb more nutrients and avoid common health issues.

Pair: Yoghu�t and Honey

Pair: Eggs and spinach

Keep your bones strong.

To help maintain your vision

When you eat honey alongside a serve of yogurt, you’ll absorb up to 33 percent more of the dairy food’s calcium.

Egg yolks and spinach are both rich sources of lutein and zeaxanthin, two carotenoins that play a key role in protecting the health of the eye’s macula. But when you eat them together, you’ll absorb up to eight times the amount of the spinach’s carotenoids.

Pair: To�u and �ed capsicum

Pair: Onion and b�own rice

Pair: Cur�� and black pepper To protect against diabetes If the curry contains turmeric, it’ll deliver a healthy dose of curcumin. That’s an antioxidant that can reduce your body’s post-meal insulin response by up to 20 percent, helping to lower your long term diabetes risk. Adding a few grinds of black pepper can increase curcumin’s accessibility by as much as 2000 percent.

Pair: Sa�dines and cooked tomatoes

Lower your risk of heart attack.

To improve immunity

To lower your risk of heart disease

The tofu delivers a hit of phytoestrogens, phytoestrogens inhibit the oxidation of LDL, or bad cholesterol , but the effect is significantly greater when they’re eaten with capsicum which is a rich source of vitamin C.

Brown rice is a good plant source of zinc- a nutrient that’s essential for a health immune system, while onions contain compounds called organosulfurs have been shown to help prevent cancer. When you eat brown rice and onion together, you’ll absorb up to 159 percent more of the rice’s zinc as a result.

Sardines and cooked tomatoes each contain different types of heart- healthy nutrientsomega-3 fatty acids from the fish, and the antioxidant lycopene, in cooked tomatoes. But eat them together and the protective effect for your heart get bigger.

养生之道 GOOD HEALTH

Pair: Chicken and cheese To keep your brain in good shape When you eat chicken and cheese together, you provide your body with three of the eight B vitamins –folate, B6 and B12. Higher levels of those particular B vitamins are associated with better cognitive performance, according to USbased researcher.

Pair: Red meat and �osema�� Protect against cancer Red meat is a good source of nutrients including iron, zinc, and vitamin B12, and if it’s cooked at high temperatures, like on a barbecue cancercausing compounds called hetercyclic acids (HCAs) can form. Marinating lamb with rosemary can reduce the formation of HCAs by between 30 and 100 percent.

Pair: Avocado and car�ot

Pair: Apples and Da�k chocolate

Boost your vitamin A levels

Lower your stroke risk

Pair these two foods together and you’ll absorb up to six times as much of the carrot’s beta carotene which your body converts into Vitamin A. That vitamin is essential for healthy skin, vision and a robust immune system.

Apples contain quercetin and dark chocolate is a rich source of catechins – both powerful antioxidants on their own, but together they’ve been found to prevent platelets in our blood from clumping. It is beneficial for our cardiovascular health because when platelets stick together too much they can form a clot, increasing our risk of a stroke.

Pair: Chickpeas and lemon juice To fight fatigue Chickpeas are a rich source fatigue-fighting iron. They contain the same amount of iron per 100g as lamb, but it’s a variety called non-harm iron, which is harder to absorb than the type of iron that meat contains. Pair it with a source of vitamin C-such as lemon juice can triples the amount of iron from the chickpeas that your body can absorb.

养生之道 GOOD HEALTH

根据 2017年二月份版《好健康 》当地杂志的作者 Karen Fittall ,指出某些食物如果与其他食物一起食用效果会更佳。 试试以下的配对来吸收多些营养和避免常见的健康问题吧!

配对: 酸奶与蜂蜜

配对:咖哩与黑胡椒

配对:牛油果与红萝卜

如果你把蜂蜜与酸奶一起食用,你的身体可

如果咖哩入面含有姜黄,就等于是吃了一剂

将这两种食物搭配一同食用,你就可以吸收

维持骨骼强壮

以增加吸收这乳制品里面的钙质;高于不配 酸奶食用达百分之三十三之多。

配对:豆腐与红椒 减低心脏病风险

豆腐替身体打一剂植物雌激素;植物雌激素 可以防止LDL亦即“坏胆固醇”氧化。但

是如果配合红椒一同食用效果可以增倍,因 为红椒含有丰富的维他命C。

配对:鸡蛋与菠菜 帮助保持视力

蛋黄和菠菜都含有丰富的叶黄素和玉米黄 质;两者都是对保护眼睛黄斑起很大作用

的类胡萝卜素。但如果两者一起食用,菠菜 中的类胡萝卜素可以增加高达8倍。

配对: 洋葱与糙米 改善免疫力

糙米是很好的植物性锌来源。锌是一个健 康免疫系统的必须养分。另一方面,实验证 明洋葱含有可以预防癌症的有机硫。当你将 糙米和洋葱一同食用, 糙米中的锌可吸收 成分增加高达百分之一百五十九。

预防糖尿病

健康的姜黄素 - 这是一种抗氧化剂,可以减 低你身体饭后的胰岛素反应达百分之二十,

并降低你患上长期糖尿病风险。研磨少许的 黑胡椒,可以令姜黄素更容易被吸收,高达 百分之两千。

配对:沙丁鱼与熟西红柿 减低你患心脏病的风险

沙丁鱼与煮熟了的番茄都拥有不同种类的、 对心脏健康有效的营养素。鱼有奥米加三脂

肪酸,而煮熟了的番茄则含有抗氧化剂番茄 红素。但如果将它们一起食用的话可对保护 你的心脏起到更大作用。

配对:鸡与乳酪

令到你的大脑更灵活

当你把鸡和乳酪一同食用,你其实是给身体

提供八种维他命B之中的三种 - 叶酸、B6和 B12。一项美国研究证明,更高的这几种维 他命B含量和更好的认知能力表现有关连。

配对:红肉与迷迭香 预防癌症

红肉是很多养分的好来源,包括铁、锌和维

他命B12。如果它是被高温烹调,例如在烧

烤炉上,可导致产生致癌物质杂环酸(HCAs) 。用迷迭香来腌制羊肉可以减低HCAs的产 生高达百分之三十至一百。

40

增加你的维他命A水平

多达6倍红萝卜里的β-胡萝卜素,之后你身

体会将之变为维他命A。这维他命是健康的 皮肤、视力和强壮的免疫力系统所须要的养 分。

配对:鹰嘴豆与柠檬汁

抵抗疲劳

鹰嘴豆是铁质的一 个丰富来源,可以抗疲

劳。每100克鹰嘴豆含有和羊肉一样多的铁, 但那是一种叫做无害铁的品种,比肉中所含 的铁质更难吸收。如果把它跟一些维他命C

的来源,像柠檬汁一起搭配,你身体所能吸 收的铁可以高达三倍之多。

配对:苹果与黑巧克力 降低中风风险

苹果拥有槲皮素;而黑巧克力则是儿茶素的 丰富来源 - 两者单独都已经是很强的抗氧化 剂。实验证明, 一旦同时食用的话可以抑制

血小板凝聚。这对于心血管健康很有益,因 为如果血小板凝聚得太密,它们可能产生血 凝块,增加中风的风险。

对于年老人士更为重要,原因在于当中考虑到 种种健康有关的因素。要确保你健康生活,我 有以下的建议:

Th There is so much “healthy eating information”, so “What is healthy eating?” eat “Can I eat this?”, “I heard this food can help to prevent diseases, so we started eating it every day”. These are the most common questions and comments I hear. Today we have a lot of information that we hear and read about “what to eat” from friends and family, radio, TV and social media. Having studied nutrition at the University of Sydney, completed a PhD and with over six years of post-qualification experience, nutrition and healthy eating can still be a complicated subject to explain. The simple message is, “If you want to eat healthy, the easiest way is to eat a wide variety of food. Eat everything in moderation. If you mainly focus on a limited type of food, then you will miss out on other nutrients.” This is particularly important in the older population as there may be more health-related factors to consider. To ensure you stay healthy, I have the following advice.

The five food groups and choosing healthy foods Prioritise the five food groups in our daily diet. These include: vegetables; fruits; protein-rich foods such as meats, fish, legumes and eggs;

种类。女性或更年期后的妇女,你须要吸收更 酪,或选择补充钙质的豆奶。

dairy foods; and cereals and grains. Ensure you have some vegetables in at least two meals a day. Choose from a wide variety of vegetables like green leafy types and those of different colours such as carrots, tomatoes, cauliflower, etc. Choose whole fruits as healthy snacks instead of cakes, sweets and juices. Have at least two meals of fatty fish each week. Choose lean meats and remove the skin from poultry. Choose fat-reduced dairy foods. Choose wholegrain cereals such as multigrain. Tips: Make sure you always cover all five food groups every day. If you are a woman and postmenopause, then you will need to have more fatreduced dairy foods such as low-fat milk, yoghurt or cheese, or alternatively you can have soy milk that has added calcium.

Choose healthier cooking methods

准,以每人不能超过一汤匙油的标准来衡量。

我们可以多常选择 非健康饮食呢?

对此没有某个标准,最好可以限制自己少于每

When you dine out, order foods that are cooked using a healthy method. Tips: Steaming, boiling, roasting, grilling, microwaving, baking and stir-frying are healthy cooking methods. For each meal, you should use no more than one tablespoon of oil for each person.

How often should you eat discretionary foods? Discretionary foods are foods and drinks that do not belong to the five food groups because they do not provide many nutrient. For example, alcohol, desserts, cakes, biscuits, some sauces, butter, condensed milk, honey, salted nuts, deepfried foods and sugary drinks, etc. Tips: Write down how many times you eat a discretionary food/drink in a week. There is no rule, but you should limit these foods and drinks to less than once a week.

Regardless of whether you cook or not, you should choose foods that are cooked using healthy methods. For example, choose foods that are cooked in less oil, less salt and less sugar. Foods do not have to taste bland when it is healthy. We suggest using herbs to replace salt and choose vegetables with strong natural flavours such as tomatoes, pumpkin, capsicum or sweet potatoes.

追忆先人 IN MEMORIAL

易 蕾 文◎Lisa Cooke (Yi Lei’s Daughter 易蕾女儿) 译◎Elvie Yap 叶俐廷 Many people within the Chinese community in Perth would have recognised Yi Lei: a beautiful, colourful, confident and talented woman. She not only was a beloved mother, sister and friend, but a fabulous performer and entertainer. For such a happy and positive person many people do not know the difficulties she went through in her life. An incredibly strong and brave woman she went through hardships during her younger life in China and when she came to Australia in 1987. No matter what obstacles life dealt her nothing would dampen her happiness and passion to do those things she loved. In May 2016 she faced her biggest obstacle and was diagnosed with terminal stomach cancer. Although this would be the toughest struggle she would go through in life, no one would ever know. She carried on teaching, dancing and performing, this includes for the Chung Wah Association only days after receiving chemotherapy. Many people did not know or could even imagine what she was going through in her personal life, yet none of this stopped her. She brought much happiness and enjoyment to everyone. She would jump at any opportunity she could to do those things she loved, especially in front of an audience. Even in her last weeks she would still try to sing, dance and perform for the many visitors she had. I can say on behalf of all those people that were lucky enough to know Yi Lei, that they were blessed to have known such a happy and talented person. This includes the Chung Wah Association that she supported and in return gave her the opportunities to perform, entertain and impact on the many lives over the years. May she rest peacefully in Gods arms and save us all a spot in her dance group she has started in heaven. Yi Lei’s Daughter – Lisa Cooke

珀斯华人社区有不少华人对易蕾有 一定的认识。她是一位美丽、狂野、多姿 多彩、自信和多才多艺的女性。她不仅是 一位受人爱戴的妈妈、姐妹和朋友,同时 也是能歌善舞的演员。 像她如此开朗乐观的人,许多人很难 相信她背后曾经历过的艰苦日子。童年时 在中国和1987年初到澳大利亚时的苦难 日子,她以无比的坚强和勇气克服了生活 上的重重难关。 这些年来没有任何障碍 曾削弱过她所热衷的事。 2016 年五月份,她面对了一生中最大

的挫折---被诊断患上了末期胃癌。纵使 应对着她人生中最大的难关和挣扎,她 依旧继续自己热爱的兴趣:教舞、跳舞、 演出,甚至接受了化疗几天后就参与中华 会馆的演出。 那段日子她所承受的痛楚 是许多人无法理解或想象的,然而这并未 让她停下来。 她给大众带来了无限的欢乐。她紧紧 地把握着每一次唱歌跳舞的机会,尤其是 在有观众的场景下。在她离世前的最后一 周,她也撑着身体在观众前载歌载舞。 容许我说一句能够结识易蕾的朋友 是他们的福气,她是一位难得的多才多 艺的乐天派。多年来,易蕾十分支持中华 会馆,也感恩会馆提供了一个平台让她以 自己的歌舞影响欣赏她的人。 希望她在上帝的怀抱里得到安息,并 在天堂的舞蹈团给我们留个名额。

Planning Ahead

提前规划 文◎Chipper Funerals 译◎Lesley Wong黄小娟

hy do we plan ahead? We do it to reap benefits like peace of mind, security and to protect those we care for so we can enjoy life. We all plan for life’s major events: our wedding day, buying a home, starting a family, the children’s education, for our career through to retirement. We typically work harder to achieve this, retire later and live longer. Some of us are becoming more affluent, enabling us to plan retirements full of the sorts of activities we perhaps didn’t have time for during our working lives. Many of us look to get our affairs in order, enabling retirement to be a time of enjoyment with the family, newly discovered hobbies and rediscovered passions. Apart from writing a will, what else can we do to plan ahead? Traditionally it has been a taboo subject and we’ve had few options, but now that’s changed. Today we’re able to plan ahead for almost anything including our funeral. This final event is a celebration of our life and achievements, and we’re able to protect, one last time, those we love from making decisions about our final arrangements, at what unquestionably will be an emotional time. An increasing number of products exist on the market for funeral planning, including funeral bonds, funeral insurance and prepaid funerals, but not all these products are alike. A prepaid funeral gives you the opportunity to record your wishes by prearranging and paying a future funeral service at today’s price. This offers a number of benefits over other forms of funeral planning. It protects you and your family against inflation. You can personalise many aspects of the services to be delivered and it does not adversely affect your personal tax, pension or other entitlements. You can also feel secure in the knowledge that your funds are safely held by the Over 50’s Friendly Society until needed. A prepaid funeral plan offers more than just a cash payout. It gives you the time you need to make informed decisions about the funeral best suited to you, allows you to incorporate your cultural wishes and beliefs into your service and gives you the security of knowing your family is protected. The selected services are guaranteed. To take the first step in planning for your own funeral or memorial service, please speak to your friends at Chipper Funerals on 08 9330 6344 (Perth South) or 08 9381 5888 (Perth North). And for assistance in your language of origin please ask to speak with Stephen Kum on 0428 765 248.

们为什么要提前计划?我们这样做是为 了获得安心和保障,并且能保护我们所 关心的人,让我们可以享受生活。 我们都会规划人生中重大的事件,例如: 婚礼、买房、组织家庭、孩子的教育、事业和退 休。我们努力地工作去实践了才退休。 我们中的一些人变得越来越富裕,使我 们能够计划退休生活,参与在工作时期没有时 间参与的活动。有许多人期待将事务循序完 成,使退休成为享受家庭的时间,培养新爱好 和重新发觉激情。 除了立遗嘱,还有什么我们可以预先规划 的吗?这传统上是一个忌讳,我们没有多余的 选择。但是随着时代的改变,现在几乎什么都 可以预先规划,包括我们的葬礼。 这人生最后的一个典礼要庆祝我们的人 生和成就。我们能最后一次保护我们所爱的人 在毫无疑问最悲伤的时候还要为我们的丧事 安排做抉择。 殡葬计划市场的产品越来越多,包括殡 葬债券,保险和预付殡葬。但并不是所有的产 品都一样。 预付殡葬让你有机会按你的愿望和现今 的价格来预先安排和支付未来的殡葬服务。 这比其他形式的殡葬计划提供了一些好 处。这计划保护你和你的家人免受通货膨胀。 你可以在不影响你的税金、养老金和其他权 益下,要求多方面的个人化服务。你也可以安 心知道你的资金被Over 50 Friendly Society 安 全持有,直至需要。 预付殡葬计划不仅提供现金支付。它给 你时间去为最适合你的葬礼作出明智的决定。 这计划能配合你的文化背景和宗教信仰来给 你服务,确保你的家人获得保障。你所选的服 务都得会获得保证。 如欲 规 划你的葬礼和追思会,请致电

中秋节庆 MID-AUTUMN FESTIVAL

2017 Chung Wah Chinese School Mid-Autumn Festival

中华 会馆中文学校中秋活动 供稿◎中华中文学校管委会主任 蘇翠妹 Sheila Rejek | Article by Sheila Rejek, Chair of Chung Wah Chinese School Council 中文翻译◎中华会馆中文学校Rossmoyne校区校长马烜历博士 | Translated by Dr Ma Xuanli, Principal Chung Wah Chinese School - Rossmoyne

Zhong Qiu Jie festivities permeate the Chinese community! Ditch the clutter with a “spring cleaning” of the Chung Wah Cultural Centre, the moon festival season has arrived. Red lanterns filled the hall with a simple but elegant minimalist preparatory idea incorporating a splash of red to the festivities. Choir by the Chung Wah Leeming teachers and the brave fiery moves of the little apple dance

act were sensational. The exotic drunken beauty cultural dance using colourful costumes clutching feather fans by talented young Chung Wah Morley students were simply enchanting. Equally, Chung Wah Rossmoyne’s prairie moon dance and a poem song for dad and mum by the students who sang their hearts out watched by proud parents, grandparents, siblings, extended families, friends and supporters. This season’s Mid-Autumn Festival was shared and celebrated among 800 Chung Wah Chinese School parents and the general public including

200 students, performers and volunteers who flowed in and out of the hall on Saturday, 16 September 2017 to catch a glimpse of this talent show by Chung Wah kids. Chung Wah Lions led by Stephen Kum opened the show with impressive acts of strength and courage. The physical and mental strength of the Chung Wah Lions comprising some young Chung Wah Leeming students kicked the show off with high intensity. Ten powerful and colourful lions, big and small, graced the floor and centre stage, dancing to the amusement of the audience. This rich heritage and culture continues to capture the audience’s imagination young and old! The sheer sophistication of Chung Wah Cultural Dance led by Jen Nie Chong delivered this year’s theme of Chang’er accompanied by fairies in the rainbow sky with contrasting bright pink and snow white. Liang Liang Dance group elegantly filled the stage with a blue and white delight floating on clouds. Chung Wah Chinese Orchestra led by Chen Zhi exhibited the power and distinctiveness of Chinese musical instruments blending the sound and spirit of Chinese music. Singer, guitarist and drummer trio from Forte School of Music played and sang popular Teresa

Morley committee members and teachers exhibited traditionally embroidered silk Chinese qipao costumes. Students, children and spectators who donned traditional costumes were given the opportunity of a stage parade as part of the acts at the Chung Wah Cultural Centre. Lanterns and artworks by Chung Wah students set the mood for a fabulous evening of festival. Mooncake, lantern, Chinese food, drink, dessert, ornament, art and craft stalls as well as the kid’s activity amusement corner filled the atmosphere of a Chinatown environment. This was an interactive and informative concert enjoyed by all and explored by enthusiastic students who were presented with decorative lanterns to take home. A broad range of talents and performances from solo to group singing, choirs, traditional dances, martial arts, Chinese musical instrument Guzheng

and Chinese yoyo diabolo kept the audience interested till the end of the show when the grand prize was drawn and claimed. The grand prize lucky draw was a 65” UHD smart TV won by a Chung Wah Chinese School Leeming parent. Other prizes were three enrolment vouchers of a one-year free tuition at the Chung Wah Chinese School. Forte music school sponsored multiple vouchers, Impress Office Furniture supplied multiple vouchers and Parrot drone, Play Station 4, Sunbeam multi-cooker, Philips air fryer, Cannon DSL camera, Electrolux vacuum, cooking pots, Fitbit fitness watch, slow cooker, Gateau cake holders, beard trimmer, shaver, decanter, barbeque iron fry pan, mug set and Breville vacuum pack were among other prizes won by Chung Wah parents and friends. Trophies and certificates with panda bears given out as prizes for Chinese drawing, painting, calligraphy and home-made lantern competitions to Chung Wah kids in an evening packed with activities. Awards were presented in recognition of the wonderful efforts and talents by Chung Wah students while many proud parents looked on! David Michael MLA (Member for Balcatta) represented Hon Paul Papalia CSC MLA Minister for Tourism; Racing and Gaming; Small Business; Defence Issues; Citizenship and Multicultural Interests at this function. Tony Krsticevic MLA Shadow Minister for Local Government; Heritage; Culture and the Arts; Citizenship and Multicultural

Interests was present. Sun An Lin, Deputy Consul-General represented Consul-General Lei Ke Zhong of the Consulate General of People’s Republic of China in Perth attended the event. Hui Lin Tan and Wen Tao Qiao were two emcees who created an engaging experience on the evening for spectators and contributed hugely to the success of this cultural show enjoyed by all. Sheila Rejek thanked all sponsors, emcees and members of the organising committee especially Suardi Sumiati, Wee En Chu, Anne Marie Wong, Lambert Leong supported by Principal Dr Li Hua, Principal Emily Tan-Emery and Principal Dr Ma Xuanli including members of the Chung Wah Chinese School Management Committees in Leeming, Morley and Rossmoyne for their untiring efforts towards making this event special and a reality. Also, Sheila Rejek acknowledged the intrinsic value of volunteering, in particular the selfless contribution of Suardi Sumiati and Wee En Chu who devoted precious hours working tirelessly over two Saturdays till mid-night to install 128 lanterns at the Chung Wah Cultural Hall.

hung Wah Dance consists of about ten active members, who are high school/ university students and full-time workers who share a love for dance. Junior members come mainly from the Chung Wah Chinese schools. The group’s Coordinator is Jen Nie Chong and the current dance teacher is Min Zhu. Formed in 1980 as part of the Chung Wah Chinese language school in West Leederville, with the aim of promoting and preserving Chinese culture, the Chung Wah dancers are cultural ambassadors for the community. They have performed at many community events and special occasions, including the Australia Day Oz Concert, Chinese New Year Festivals and various other multicultural festivals around Western Australia. Performances vary from the classical “Han” and minority dances to contemporary Chinese dances. In the last twenty years, as well as growing in professionalism, Chung Wah Dance has had two major milestones. One being our first dance training trip to China in 2007 and the other being our dance production, ‘New Gold Mountain’ to celebrate Chung Wah Association’s centenary. On 14 December 2007, nine members from Chung Wah Dance plus chaperone, Anita Chong, travelled to Shanghai to attend an intensive dance training camp at the Xin Zhong Middle School. The trip was most worthwhile and aimed to expand the dancers’ knowledge and technique in Chinese dance styles. The majority of the dancers were born or brought up in Australia, so it was an excellent opportunity to study Chinese dance in the place where it originated. Lessons were taught by talented choreographer, Ji Su Hua (a graduate from the Beijing Dance Academy) and assisted by a dance teacher from the school. During the ten days, three dances were learnt. Each dance had different styles, techniques and emotions, which were picked up quickly by the dancers, considering the short time frame that they had to learn the dances. It was an incredible experience and we would like to organise another professional training trip in future. To celebrate Chung Wah’s 100th year, the dance

theatre ‘New Gold Mountain’ was performed at the Judith Cottier theatre in Mount Lawley on the evenings of Friday 13 August and Saturday 14 August 2010. There was also a Saturday matinee on 14 August 2010. The immigration of the Chinese community to Western Australia, as well as the history of the Chung Wah Association, were captured in the original and compelling choreography by Chang Zhi Dan with an original score by renowned Chinese composer, Chang BaYi. Our project began with a community histories day where we invited members of the Chinese community to share with us their immigration experiences. Our knowledge and research was further enriched with the assistance of Anne Atkinson, who presented a short historical recount of the Chinese in Western Australia from its very beginning. Through our research, expanding from a collection of old photographs, historical articles, journals, personal recounts and experiences, the dancers built the basis of our dance production and explored some of the most distinct themes for the Chinese community, especially during the early years: the arrival to a foreign land; separation of families and tradition; discrimination against the Chinese community; the building of Chung Wah Association in WA and the integration of Chinese culture into the Australian way of life. This was a fantastic opportunity to bring a few of Chung Wah’s groups together, including Chung Wah Lion Dance and Chung Wah Community and Aged Care. The feedback received from the audience and participants was overwhelming. We are also actively teaching in the community. A few of our dancers have taught and are teaching at the Chung Wah Chinese schools, as well as primary schools that teach the Chinese language. We look forward to welcoming anyone who would like to join our dance group. It doesn’t matter how old you are or what dance background you have; all you need is a willingness to learn and try new experiences! We are also available for performance bookings. If you are interested, please contact the Chung Wah office, (08) 9328 8657.
