HISTORY AND MISSION

Bergen Chinese school was established in 1972 by a group of Chinese Americans to promote Chinese language and culture.

We provide a variety of classes for students to learn the basic Chinese language including understanding, speaking, reading and writing the Chinese characters. Students also explore Chinese culture through rhythm and rhyme, poetry, songs, crafts, chess, calligraphy, painting, etc. Please visit our “Academics – Programs” for details.

All of our teachers have college degrees and received college credits in Chinese language and literature. Some of them even have master and doctorate degrees. Besides their qualifications in teaching, they actively participate in different teaching programs, computer software training, pre-AP and AP workshops and conferences to update themselves with the most current information and knowledge and to exchange their teaching experiences with teachers from other schools.

博根中文學校簡介

校史及目標

博根創校於1972年，是附屬在華人服務中心旗下的三所中文學校之一。三十多年來，感恩前人的遠見，博根除了製造一個良好的中文環境，給孩子們學習語言和中華文化以外，更讓學生和家長們有緣自四面八方來相聚在這個溫暖的大家庭中，藉此機會與相同背景的人交朋友，讓孩子們在快樂成長的過程中，能對身為中國人有更實際的歸屬和認同感，同時培養孩子們健全的人格，以期在長大以後，能中西合璧、一展所長，對世界有所貢獻。

課程簡介

博根每星期日下午上課，每學期十五週。除了語文課程以外，還有各項文化課程，包括美勞、書法、棋藝、國畫、中國武術等。此外亦經常舉辦各項學業性競賽活動，包括查字典比賽、說故事比賽、文化常識問答、及認字比賽等。課後活動另有少林武術 (少林張師父/Shaolin Gong-fu & Tai-chi Academy)、民族舞蹈 (吳景麗老師/King Lai Culture Dance Theater) 和舞龍舞獅 (Master Henry Lee)等活動。詳情請參閱 “Academics – Programs”
