Teams are resources, teachers are courses, learning is life, and our attitude towards education is shaped from our pursuit of the meaning of life. As the process of that pursuit can improve our happiness and beauty, it deserves our dedication. In the past semester, our middle school students actively participated in various club activities, which opened the doors of knowledge and led them into a world of infinite charm. The student representatives from the four grades shared moments of happiness in their school lives as well as their thoughts about and gains from the past semester.

《這個比賽真好玩》

A Fun Competition

來自六年級的馮逸容、王語瞳、陶韻如同學分享了她們參加世界學者杯的的比賽收獲。來自6A班的陶韻如同學說，最初參加這個比賽，她并不是非常自信，因為她不是一個口才非常好或者平時喜歡辯論的選手。但是隨著課程的慢慢深入，老師們給予了大量的指導和模擬訓練之后，開始漸漸喜歡辯論了。因為你需要快速的思考、流暢的表達、以及找出對方辯手的薄弱環節，同時和你的隊友非常默契地配合，這個過程非常令人興奮也很有趣。她希望同學們以后有機會也可以參加WSC的辯論賽，挑戰自己，獲得鍛煉。

Isabella Feng, Hitomi Wang, and Sophie Tao from G6A shared their achievements in the World Scholars Cup (WSC). Sophie Tao said that she was not confident when she first participated in this competition, because she was not very confident in speaking or fond of debating. As the course gradually deepened, and after the teachers provided a lot of guidance and simulation training, she began to enjoy debating. She said that participants need to think quickly, express themselves fluently, and determine the weak points of the opposing debater, and at the same time cooperate with their teammates. This process was overly exciting and interesting. She hopes that students will have the opportunity to participate in WSC debate competitions in the future and that they would challenge themselves more.

《豐富的體驗很幸福》

Enriched Experience

來自七年級的王眾迎同學和大家分享了本學期開展的一系列豐富多彩的課程活動，有袋鼠競賽獲得全球金獎的興奮，還有初中部同學們獲得Spelling Bee第七季全國總亞軍的激動時刻。她說，與優秀的同學并肩學習不僅充滿斗志、勇氣，更能感受到成功的喜悅和幸福。中秋節穿漢服，做月餅，午間音樂會為校園傳遞了“聲聲不息”的快樂魔法。學習不應該局限于書本，行走課程讓大家明白，包容與尊重，也是人生的必修課。籃球賽讓大家明白了團隊合作的重要性，而通過各種藝術作品得到情緒的抒發與宣泄，讓大家更懂得了“藝術是生活的人文表達”這句話。“鍥而舍之,朽木不折,鍥而不舍,金石可鏤”希望大家面對挫折不要氣餒，面對困難時有直面他們的勇氣。

最后，各班的班主任老師組織學生召開線上班會。語文、數學等學科教師就寒假作業及綜合實踐活動進行了說明。班主任老師溫馨提示同學們在寒假中要做好健康防疫、安全自護、心理調適，遵守相關的法律法規，度過一個安全、健康、收獲滿滿的假期。

Finally, the Tutor teachers for each class helped to organize the students for purposes of holding online homeroom meetings. Core subject teachers explained the winter vacation homework and comprehensive practical activities. The Tutors warmly reminded the students to be pay attention to their health and pandemic prevention, to their safety self-protection, to their psychological well-being, to abide by relevant laws and regulations during the winter vacation, and to spend a safe, healthy and rewarding vacation.
