報載培道中學重建,要暫搬至前德貞女子中學兩年,為此不但兩校校長要交流意見,訓導主任也要互換情報。報紙沒有解譯訓導主任互相拜訪的原因,我猜偌大的校園,學生有很多可以「攪鬼」的地方,早早通了消息就不用待發生事的時候,手足無措。
老師永遠不及學生把校園看得透,他們創意無垠,老師總是等發生了事情,才知校園內什麼地方是危險地帶,加以查封整頓。
我們的學校才啟用了兩、三年,與校園環境有關的「案件」多,有待「發展」的地方相信也不少。曾經有學生走上天台,把電標房屋脊當滑梯,甚至自行爬窗進入員工休息室「自由行」。又例如學校有塊沙地,記得開校之初,校園設施不足,同學小息午飯時無處可去,去沙地玩泥沙有之,造沙灘雕塑有之,在沙地上畫字留下記號有之,千奇百怪,還是學生玩夠本後,老師才懂封鎖沙池。學校人少,課室用不盡,當初還有幾層沒有人使用,寧靜的轉角,就更是小情侶的好去處了。
不只巴黎有漫遊者,學校也有漫不經心的遊魂。寂寞又自我的同學,有時輕飄飄地在各層走廊遊來遊去,在散步云云,更有人在樓梯轉角留字「到此一遊」。我從前的中學,每逢午飯小息都不許生學生留在課室層,便沒有漫遊校園的情趣了。操場人多,我不是躲在圖書館,便是坐定定在長椅上吃火腿芝士三文治和喝維他奶,很少走來走去。
空間由人所塑造,人能為各種空間創造意義,又各自留下回憶。教統局設計的一模一樣的校舍,放在不同人的心中和回憶裡,也有不同的故事啊。(行貨的結尾啊~~)
說的很對, 校舍都是一樣, 卻有千萬個不同的故事. 但生活雖然不同,卻要經歷相似的難關.人生真是奇妙.
回覆刪除pls let me share with you you a story as you like coffee from an american coffee house.
回覆刪除i did supervise a project which is an ethnography reserach on a coffee house in tsuen wan.
the student spent a lot of time on observations and making field notes at that coffee house. she realizes except those who go for coffee and other regular practices in the coffee house, there are a group of "si lai" (as a positive term) who go there often and stay after bringing kids to schools. they chat and stay for a long time. some of them even use the chocolate powder and milk (those "free stuff") to make their own drinks.
spatial practices are something really amazing. it is in fact the production of space, or what makes a space makes sense. we can see so much subjectivit(ies) of different people there. i mean within the same space, the use of space tell so much about the people, and relations of the space with those people.
i can't forget how shock i was when reading the paper... they (si lai) are so creative... yes, we can make a drink out of those free chocolate powder and milk and sugar... why not?!? :-) amazing!
that project is a good one too.
你應該是千禧之前那種校舍吧。上天台前那個轉角簡直是神秘地帶,當然還有千千萬萬個洗手間,都是死仔樂園。
回覆刪除阿晨︰你的故事就像麥當奴的故事啊,還記得大家在中學的日子,放學都會去麥當奴傾計、做功課。特別我中學所在的舊區,d公公婆婆最鐘意坐一日,係咁攞水飲同添咖啡。不過講創意,就唔及你講d師奶囉。有次我響銅鑼灣星記見到個伯伯響到睇免費報紙,不過問收銀姐姐攞水就俾人鬧lu。
回覆刪除係呀KURSK,千禧校舍。個設計,真係好悶。但係學生只會在一個校舍出入,唔知佢地識唔識比較和指出,沒有他們的努力添加,自己既學校同人地既學校其實係無分別既。
回覆刪除阿晨這個case及miss lee的回應, 倒令我想起數年前一個頗令人心酸的報道。有位男子長期失業, 卻又很有毅力找工作, 然而他已窮得幾乎沒錢開飯, 他每天早上都要到麥記買一本奶茶, 然後無限次添飲, 汲取一整天的營養... (不過他也說自己瘦得似道友, 更沒人敢請)
回覆刪除唔好咁講啦
回覆刪除我成日交行貨架
