位於香港最南端的島嶼蒲台島，有著豐富的水產資源、獨特的自然風光、三千多年古石刻、百年天后誕文化傳統及淳樸的風土民情，向來吸引不少遊客前往。惟島上至今仍缺乏自來水、電資源，島內的無障礙設施基建不足和稀少的渡輪班次，一直是困擾居民回島居住的障礙。近日有教育機構聯同當地村民，啟動「共創蒲台教育」計劃，目標在於改善蒲台島居民基本建設，將蒲苔學校改建為全港首個蒲台島教育、保育及旅客資訊中心，並計劃在明年中旬舉辦大型文化藝術活動，鼓勵訪客以全新角度認識蒲台島。
創辦於1955年的蒲苔公立學校，為蒲台島居民提供了基礎教育，因漁業式微，漁民子弟紛紛搬離小島，收生不足，學校於1986年停辦，校址荒廢至今。蒲台島村委會主席羅成和一眾村民一直有個心願，希望有機會活化舊建築，重新利用這一設施，建成新的教育和文化中心。香港大學教育學院副教授、22世紀協基學堂基金創辦人及主席朱啟華博士，主力推廣「遊戲化學習」，今年結識蒲台島村民並深入考察蒲台島的生態、歷史和文化後，發現這裏具有十分豐富的教育資源，蒲苔學校舊址是一個絕佳的地點，希望可以透過「共創蒲台教育」計劃實現彼此的夢想。
蒲台公所變身臨時教育及旅客中心今年8月28至29日，由22世紀協基學堂基金和蒲台島村公所工作關注組合辦了首批導賞團，分別邀請公眾和學生團體參觀蒲台島，由村民作為導賞員，走訪蒲台島知名景點，介紹島上的文化和歷史，並品嚐特色的漁村美食。朱啟華博士喜見參與活動的市民和學生都對導賞團評價頗高，相信這是一個很好的開始，也給了他更大的信心。他從教育角度看，認為蒲台島是一個很好的教育基地：「我們建議在蒲台島透過不同的學習計劃，能夠吸引學生參與創新學習元素，為學生和家庭帶來旅遊休閒以外的學習機會。」...

The First STEAM & Service-Learning Educational PROGRAM of the Hong Kong South Pole, Po Toi Island, started on Aug 29, 2021. A22 Foundation members, Village representatives and a team from Hong Kong Chinese Womens' Club College (principal, 3 teachers and 20 students) together with 4 university students participated in the first learning program organized for the School’s secondary students.
Other than having fun in hiking, visiting various places regarding the cultures and heritage of Po Toi, students engaged in active interviews with the villagers and learned a lot regarding the history and cultures of the island and the people there. The principal and the 3 teachers found it to be a worthwhile trip and agreed that the island offers “N possibilities” for students’ learning. Therefore, the School is collaborating with A22 Foundation for its students to learn and contribute and this can help build a better future for Po Toi.
