Description of Our Community: FU HSING Primary School, situated in Taipei downtown, is a distinguished private school. The school adjoins the most prosperous commercial circle. Among those busy people and heavy traffic, our school enjoys a tranquil mood. Those unique works of decorative art are arranged on the sidewalk purposely. The luxuriant trees stretch their branches and twigs to shade the avenue, forming a beautiful boulevard. People said that trees are the lungs of a city .Living in the urban, we can only see, touch and feel the freshness of trees in the park and campus. And the trees planted along the avenue and sidewalk provide another pleasant experience for urban people to enjoy the gift of nature. Fortunately, our school is surrounded by thick foliage. The trees are like our old neighbors, accompanying the pupils to grow up happily and healthily. We watch them blossoming, fruiting, falling leaves, and rebirth. From them, we experience and realize the meaning of life.

Project Description: The project team had read an article describing the story about a tree doctor, Mr. Yang Gan-ling. According to the story, we realize that trees, like human being, need a doctor to make a diagnosis and to cure illness. Sometimes tree even need a surgery to cut off the diseased branches and to be bandaged up. Doctor Yang, who is like a woodpecker pecking the injurious insects from the wood, recovers new life for the trees.
