FAMILY PARTNERS PROGRAMME | Shiyu

Our team had the pleasure of meeting Shiyu, a young man with Cerebral Palsy, back in October 2008. Shiyu and his family were among the first families to join our Family Partners Programme.


Our teachers carefully evaluated Shiyu and crafted an individualised programme for him and his family. For over a decade, our FPP staff have provided tireless support, and walked with this wonderful young man and his family through the challenges and triumphs they have faced.

A strong, brave woman, Shiyu’s mother is a single parent, solely responsible for the care of Shiyu and his sister. When Shiyu was seven years old, determined to provide him with the best education possible, his mother made the difficult decision to send him to a public school. His school teacher made an unexpected request: that Shiyu’s mother accompany him to study. Since then, she has become Shiyu’s tablemate and helped her son through the ups and downs of his schooling.

Shiyu’s mother has found an incredible support network through attending FPP’s social activities. They are familiar faces at the annual Summer Camp, parent support group and Walk the Wall. Through these events, they have been able to interact with families in similar situations, and join a vibrant, loving community.

Shiyu’s mother has also participated in parental training classes organised by our international volunteers. These group meet-ups have offered valuable tools and advice, and continually helped Shiyu’s mother learn more about raising her young son.

Shiyu holds a special place in his classmate’s hearts. He has a talent for creative writing and has won awards in national competitions, including “Variety Rubik’s Cube” National Primary and Secondary School Students Composition, and the “Creation Cup” National Youth and Children Composition Competition. His classmates eagerly await installations of his novel series, which is modelled from “Notes on Tomb Raiders.”

“Today, Shiyu’s cognitive abilities are no different from his peers,” commented our FPP staff. Shiyu’s mother has requested that they continue to attend classes with FPP, and our teachers are partnering with them to craft a customised curriculum.

FPP has witnessed the remarkable transformation Shiyu has undergone over the last decade, and we are honoured to be able to continue to provide support for him and his family. We are grateful to have partners like you for bringing hope and opportunity to wonderful families like his.

We invite you to continue partnering with us to serve families like Shuyu’s.
