Emphasizing the importance of whole-person development, the Residential College System of the UM provides opportunities for students to develop their soft skills through community and peer education since 2010. Henry Fok Pearl Jubilee College was founded in 2010 as one of the pilot colleges. There are 464 resident members, 263 non-resident members and 854 graduates in the academic year 2020-2021. HFPJC is a living-learning community with its own dining hall, library, gym room, music room, art room, study rooms and other multifunctional rooms. A team of academic staffs live in the college. They maintain good communication with the students and have positive interactions with them. To nurture the skills of creative thinking and leadership of the students, as well as to enhance their citizenship learning with global perspective, diversified extracurricular activities are organized regularly.

澳門大學2014年全面推動住宿式書院系統,通過社群教育發展學生的軟實力。霍英東珍禧書院成立於2010年,是澳門大學兩所先行實驗性住宿式書院之一。目前共有住宿院生464位,非住宿院生263位,畢業生854位。書院擁有獨立的餐廳、圖書館、健身房、音樂室、美術室、研討室、多功能活動室等公共空間,是一個集生活、學習與體驗式活動為一體的社群。師生共住,並經常共膳交流;學生團體定期舉辦各類學術、社交、文娛康體、社會服務、領袖培養等活動,成員透過參與書院的多元化課外活動,提高創新思維,培養領袖才能,成為具有家國情懷的良好公民。

Mr. Peter Chan, the former president of College House Association, and his wife Ms. Annie Leung joined the 10th anniversary celebration. Both of them graduated from HFPJC in 2015. He said that the college life in HFPJC is unforgettable for them. As a student leader, he had ample opportunities to develop his leadership and communication skills, which provided a valuable foundation for his career development. Peter and Annie have a strong bonding with HFPJC because they gained precious friendship and love there. No matter how busy they are, they enjoy returning to college for some events occasionally.

珍禧書院2015年畢業生、前院生會主席陳創鵬先生和同為珍禧院友的太太梁嘉怡女士一起回來參加書院十週年慶典。他表示在書院的四年生活令他終身難忘:擔任院生會領袖職位讓他有機會通過組織書院活動鍛煉領導能力和團隊溝通協作技巧,為他的職業發展提供了寶貴的基礎;而他在書院還收穫了友誼和愛情,這讓他和太太有濃厚的珍禧情結,即便畢業後工作繁忙,也時常回來參加書院活動。

Ms. Sheeta So, HFPJC 2017 graduate, said she was very happy to return “home” with so many good friends because HFPJC is her second family. She had took different student leader positions in College and went on to be a Resident Tutor as a graduate student. When refreshing her memories in HFPJC, she was grateful for the opportunities to attend Service Learning Programme and exchange trips to Mainland China, which helped her to learn more about the development of our Motherland and established her ideal to serve the society in the future. And she does work hard to achieve her goal by taking an active part in public welfare affairs after graduation.

2017年畢業生蘇柏靜女士表示很開心和這麼多好朋友一起“回家”。書院對她來說是第二個家,她在書院擔任過不同的學生領袖職位,升讀研究生後也捨不得離開書院,繼續申請擔任書院助教。回顧書院生活,她非常感恩有機會參加多次服務學習項目和內地交流計劃,讓她有機會了解更多祖國的發展,同時堅定了日後回報社會的工作理想。畢業後她帶著這份初心活躍於澳門青年社團,積極參與社會公益事務。
