Tiffany Chau (aged 9), W.F. Joseph Lee Primary School

Acts of service are the love language that I use the most. I often help others when they need it. I help my mum with chores, and sometimes I help my brother with his homework.

I also like it when others use the same love language. One night, when I was about to go to sleep, my mum hugged and kissed me goodnight. Later, when I fell asleep, she stayed beside me. I really felt loved.

At school, I sat with a classmate who was alone, and we talked about our favourite hobbies.

Acts like these can help us create a better, more wonderful world.

Oliver Sin Ka-wai (aged 8), Kowloon Junior School

My favourite subject in school is writing because it will help me with my learning journey when I’m older.

My favourite animals are cats because I have a pet cat called Chocky, and he is one of my best friends.

I wouldn’t want to change anything about Hong Kong, despite how busy it is.

If I had the power to deliver a message to the entire city of Hong Kong, I would tell everyone to like people for who they are.

Konnichiwa! Japan’s mix of tradition and quirky habits makes its culture very interesting.

One concept is omotenashi, which means selfless and wholehearted hospitality.

This shows how people in Japan like to take care of their guests.

Another fun part of Japanese culture is kawaii, which means cute. This can be seen in everything from cartoon characters to fashion.

Many adults enjoy kawaii items, like stuffed animals or themed cafes, which might seem unusual to outsiders.
