Description of Our Community: Changhua City, which is situated on the hub of mountain and seashore transportation, is a pristine city featuring a wealth of outstanding people and historical monuments. The Grand Buddha on the Bagua Mountain has been rated as the most representative landmark in Changhua City by local residents. CHSH is situated on Huayang Hillrock of Bagua Mountain in Changhua City. It is the number one education institution in the greater Changhua area. Featuring plenty of old and leafy banyan trees, the CHSH campus is famous for its nice environment with overflowing greenness. Entering the CHSH campus from the school gate on the Huayang Street, one would immediately catch the sight of a few snails on walls of the Mingde Building, which symbolizes CHSH students’ sprit of “working steadily and making solid progress, and engaging in down-to-earth hard work to pursue one’s dream”.

Project Description: Over the past few years, CHSH has endeavored to broaden students’ international vision and was appointed as a “model school for international education” by the Ministry of Education under the lead and advocacy of Library Director Hsing-chung Lyu. In particular, the CHSH International Youth Volunteer Club, which was established under the guidance of Director Lyu, is responsible for preparing for a series of activities such as the annual Global Young Leaders Conference of High School Students, international volunteers to Swaziland in Africa, thematic site visits in Japan, and the “Marks of Angels” youth development platform. Students who participated in those activities are our role models to emulate as they showed us high school students’ care for their roots and their contribution to the society which nourished them besides their diligence in academic studies. Our Cyberfair project intended to feature a series of caring for the international society activities initiated by the CHSH International Youth Volunteer Club. We also planned to conduct in-depth studies and visits to see how those CHSH students, who were only three to four years older than us, pursued their dreams bravely, turned the impossible into the possible, and realized their sublime ambition of establishing a reservoir in Swaziland, Africa.
