上海耀中外籍人员子女学校第一学期精彩回顾

With the new year around the corner, this is a wonderful opportunity to take in and appreciate what we have learned in the first half of the school year. In no particular order, we want to celebrate our students and community for a fabulous Semester One at YCIS Shanghai! 

上学期，是硕果累累的一个学期，学校在给予学子不同平台发展与展示技能之余，学子亦不负众望，在各类活动与比赛中大放异彩。这篇文章，我们将回顾过去这一学期的十个高光时刻，与各位读者分享这一份份沉甸甸的喜悦与自豪。

01 Amazing Scholarship Opportunities 

耀中耀华首次推出奖学金项目  

We are pleased to acknowledge YCYW's new scholarship programme that intends to recognise and celebrate the highest level of academic achievement, leadership, and service to the school and our community. Universities often recognise the determination and commitment to excellence needed to receive scholarships, and this is an excellent opportunity to stand out in future university applications.

02 More Maths Mastery!

学科竞赛中斩获优异成绩

Developing critical thinking and analytical skills are at the core of the YCIS Shanghai curricula across all levels, especially in Mathematics classes. Our Maths department encourages students to participate in competitions as an exciting way to challenge logic and problem-solving abilities while exercising a growth mindset.  

In October, more than 200 YCIS students from Years 3 - 13 participated in the prestigious Caribou Cup from Canada, with over 60,000 student participants worldwide.  YCIS Pudong’s Seongwoo won 1st place in the world, while his sister Yeonwoo scored in the top 3% for her contest bracket. 

We would like to congratulate all of our writers and recognise 42 of our students who scored in the top 15% of worldwide results for Round 1 of Caribou. We greatly anticipate our students’ new accolades in 2022! 

11月，在北美驯鹿数学竞赛第一轮比赛中，共有42位参赛学生获得了全球前15%的名次，来自浦东校区10年级的Sungwoo同学更是摘得世界第一桂冠!  这是耀中学子在数学方面领先的又一例证，亦体现出了我们对学生参加学科类竞赛的高度重视。我们在鼓励学生积极参赛的同时，也乐于见证他们在过程中收获自信与经验。

03 Prestigious Top in China Awards 

for our IGCSE Students 

上海耀中学子再获剑桥中国顶尖奖

The Outstanding Cambridge Learner Awards recognise the students who attained the highest marks in China and globally in IGCSE examinations through CAIE, part of the prestigious University of Cambridge.    This year, YCIS Shanghai repeated the successes of years prior, with multiple students receiving awards for their academic prowess. YCIS Puxi student Joyce received the “Top in China” award for English First Language, highlighting the many strengths of our language programmes. Across the river, YCIS Pudong student Daniel was also awarded “Top in China” for Design and Technology.    YCIS Shanghai students have received awards from Cambridge every year for over ten years, which builds the foundations for success at the IB Diploma. As such, we are tremendously proud of their efforts! 

今年，上海耀中的2023级学生Daniel和Joyce分别获得“设计与技术”科目和“英语作为第一语言”的剑桥“中国顶尖奖”。“中国顶尖奖“是中国剑桥卓越学子大奖的一部分，用以表彰在国际教育评估（CAIE）考试中获得中国区最高分的学生。今年，是上海耀中连续第11年在该类评比中获得奖项。    

04 Launching Expert Parent Webinars  

家校网络研讨会系列

In September, YCYW launched the Parent Webinar Series. Experts provided parents with a deeper understanding of their child's learning experiences and enabled them to better support learning from home, ultimately helping children reach their goals.    We successfully hosted four webinars with specialists, educators, authors and psychologists who discussed Learning Communities, bully blocking strategies, literacy, and how to prepare our graduates for the future.    We look forward to the remaining six webinars and sharing the uniqueness of a YCYW experience with our community. 

2021年9月起，耀中耀华国际教育启动了本学年的“家校网络研讨会系列”活动，帮助家长深入了解孩子的学习体验，并能够在家庭环境中为孩子提供更加专业的支持，以更好地实现学生学习与成长的目标。   在过去的这一学期，我们成功举办了四场研讨会，耀中耀华国际教育高级课程主任Deborah McNally女士；心理学家、作家、演讲者、阻止欺凌专家Evelyn Field女士；美国加州圣地亚哥弗朗西斯帕克中学的读写能力教育专家Rebecca Bellingham女士和教育家、教育顾问、作家Andrew Lines 分别分享了自己对学习共同体、校园凌霸、阅读和毕业生需要的技能的独特见解，并与线上的家长和听众亲密互动。

05 Students Out of This World 

at Maker Faire  

耀中师生参与制汇嘉年华

This year, under the theme Mars: New Frontiers – Exploration and Habitations, YCIS Shanghai showcased a variety of STEAM projects and interactive experiences at the 2021 Shanghai Maker Faire. Our students applied the skills and knowledge learned in class—such as environmental protection and sustainable living—to create STEAM solutions for life on Mars. 

Over 17,000 visitors attended the fair, which started in San Fransisco in 2006, and featured over 60 interactive booths packed full of engaging STEAM-related activities. It was great that our displays were so prominent at this marquee event.   

Our students extracted kiwi DNA and fostered vegetal life in a controlled environment, utilising skills attained in their Biology classes. The booth's visitors roamed with robotic rovers programmed in Computer Science lessons across a Mars terrain imagined by YCIS Shanghai students in their Art classes.

We are always delighted to see the daily accomplishments of our students in and out of class and look forward to their participation in future STEAM-related events in the new year! 

10月16日和17日，上海耀中的师生共同参加了第二届制汇嘉年华活动，他们将课堂上所学的主题和知识，如环境保护和可持续生活等学以致用，研发了可用于在火星上生活的STEAM解决方案，充分展现了科技之美。活动当天，共有逾17000名访客到场，尽管天公不作美，但上海耀中的展位依旧热闹非凡，到场的儿童和成人访客均被我们精美绝伦的学生作品所震撼。   制汇嘉年华等同类型的活动，为学生展示批判性思维能力提供了平台，他们将课堂所学知识进行转化，继而传递到上海社区。    

06 Founder’s Day: 

Counting Down to 90 Years 

“楚珩日”开启90周年庆典倒计时

Because it is so central to our focus on health and wellness, at YCIS we make sport the theme of our Founder's Day each year. 

In October, we saw YCIS Pudong and Puxi students dressed in their respective house colours and participating in a wide range of activities including football, basketball, volleyball, dodgeball, golf, archery, cricket, tchoukball, frisbee, tug of war, and many more.

We also began the countdown to our 90th-anniversary celebration next year, which will certainly be a special one!

10月8日，耀中耀华迎来了一年一度的楚珩日。香港、北京、上海、重庆、青岛、广州、桐乡、烟台、日照、深圳和美国矽谷校区的耀中耀华师生，通过视频直播齐聚一堂，共庆耀中耀华成立89周年。

运动是每一届楚珩日的主题，各个校区发起了丰富多彩的体育、智趣和艺术活动。上海耀中浦东和浦西的全体学生身着代表自己团队颜色的运动衫，在足球、篮球、排球、躲避球、高尔夫、射箭、板球、巧固球、飞盘和拔河等体育活动中尽情挥洒汗水。

07 Book and Wellness Week 

德育周与图书周并行，

探索品格教育与阅读乐趣

As a school, we emphasise the need for academic and emotional balance so that our students can better manage commitments in and outside school. Wellness Week and Book Week are two examples of how YCIS Shanghaiprioritises this balance within our community. 

During Wellness Week, we encouraged all students—from K2 to Year 13—to engage in mindful, calm activities and to foster a balanced lifestyle comprised of hard work and intentional leisure. At the same time, the habit of reading also has proven long-lasting benefits for children. Werecognised this through our annual 'Book Week' with activities to encourage the love of reading.  

Our educators all engage in activities that develop each child emotionally, academically, and socially. By dedicating time to explore wellbeing and reading with our students, teachers, and parents, we promote the importance and encourage growth in these areas.

11月，上海耀中浦东与浦西校区迎来了“图书周”与“德育周”。作家Andy Rash和Karen Golden与上海耀中的学生分享了各自的作品，打开了学生想象力的大门，此外，通过“伙伴式阅读”，高年级和低年级的学生互相分享最爱的书籍，见证阅读的快乐。根据上海耀中的传统，在“图书周”的最后一天，孩子们都会打扮成最喜爱的书中人物来到学校进行主题服装游行，将阅读的欢乐气氛推向最高潮。

与此同时，浦东与浦西两校区也准备了不同的活动，帮助每个孩子在情感、学术和社会上得到发展。

08 Forging New Collaborative Spirit 

with Inaugural Gala 

首届上海耀中“筑梦未来”慈善晚宴

YCIS Shanghai held its first gala evening on November 20, bringing together students, parents, teachers and alumni. As the first independent international school in Shanghai approved by the Chinese government in 1993, YCIS Shanghai has always followed the school motto to "align with love and charity". The event celebrated this spirit, dedication and compassion of student leaders who have tirelessly served their community. 

The auction portion of the evening received generous support from YCIS parents and partners and featured over 70 items touching upon academics, art, music, sport and travel. The list included the "Principal for a Day" experience, a performance opportunity and master class at Jazz at Lincoln Center Shanghai, and a two-week summer course at the University of Oxford. 

The gala was a huge success due to the help provided by our parent volunteers and staff. We trust that the scholarship recipients will carry our torch far and wide. 

11月20日，上海耀中迎来了首届“筑梦未来”慈善晚宴。

耀中慈善文化源远流长。早在1994年，耀中就在上海市教育发展基金会下成立了专项基金——耀中基金，旨在支持学生多方面的学习、实践活动和创新拓展项目，丰富学生在耀中的学习体验。为了继续分享和传递耀中的慈善理念，在耀中耀华成立90周年之际，上海耀中发起并举办了首届“筑梦未来”慈善晚宴。

晚宴筹款所得将用于支持上海耀中全新启动的奖学金项目，以表彰在学术、社会服务及其他领域拥有突出表现的学生，并为更多来自不同背景的学生创造接受优质国际教育的机会。

此外，它也将支持由上海耀中学生主导的服务型学习项目——“希望之豆”项目，为云南当地的唇腭裂儿童与艾滋病家庭带去切实的帮助。

09 Showstopping Performances 

at our Christmas Concerts 

圣诞季汇演完美收官

Christmas is always a highly anticipated time on campus as the halls become a little more festive and the community joyous. Santa Claus made a few special appearances in classrooms from ECE to Secondary, and each campus had its way of celebrating the holiday season as a community. The annual Christmas Concerts are always highly anticipated as students diligently practise to create showstopping performances for peers and parents alike. This year was no exception, with audiences truly wowed by the many spectacles before leaving for the much-deserved winter holiday.  

圣诞节总是一年中备受期待的日子。今年，浦西和浦东的学生通过各式各样的班级活动庆祝节日的到来，并与“圣诞老人”亲密互动——他们给圣诞老人写信、利用废旧物料制作美丽圣诞饰品、白雪公主哑剧表演和圣诞班级派对等。

此外，浦西与浦东两校区也举办了多场圣诞音乐会，学生们纯真又专业的演奏与表演赢得了阵阵掌声，惊艳全场。

“希望之豆”服务型学习项目

取得不俗成绩

11月20日，上海耀中迎来了首届“筑梦未来”慈善晚宴。

耀中慈善文化源远流长。早在1994年，耀中就在上海市教育发展基金会下成立了专项基金——耀中基金，旨在支持学生多方面的学习、实践活动和创新拓展项目，丰富学生在耀中的学习体验。为了继续分享和传递耀中的慈善理念，在耀中耀华成立90周年之际，上海耀中发起并举办了首届“筑梦未来”慈善晚宴。

晚宴筹款所得将用于支持上海耀中全新启动的奖学金项目，以表彰在学术、社会服务及其他领域拥有突出表现的学生，并为更多来自不同背景的学生创造接受优质国际教育的机会。

此外，它也将支持由上海耀中学生主导的服务型学习项目——“希望之豆”项目，为云南当地的唇腭裂儿童与艾滋病家庭带去切实的帮助。

除了将所有盈利用于资助云南的慈善项目外，“希望之豆”小组也联系上了云南当地的“湄公河流域希望手术基金”，希望通过捐助，为无法承担手术费用的唇腭裂儿童提供经济及医疗资源支持。为低收入的艾滋病患者提供经济和情感支持的公益机构——“生命之光”也成为了“希望之豆”的合作伙伴，小组成员通过定期探访、提供物质支持，发起支持小组等方式，帮助艾滋病患者及受艾滋病影响的家庭重建社会关系。

最近，“希望之豆”团队计划从耀中出发，把这一模式推广至其他国际学校，将其发展成一个更大型的合作网络。他们的官方网站也即将上线，一个更大更广的世界正在被他们打开。

We look forward to more memorable moments in 2022 from the TEDx + Art Exhibition (click to see the last TEDx and Art Exhibition we had), YCYW ISTA Drama Festival, STEAM Week, YCYW University Festival, Sports Day, Father-Daughter Dance, and International Food and Global Community Week, to name a few.  

See you in 2022! 

回首过去这一学期，我们欣喜于学子在各自领域所做的种种尝试；感慨于学子在追求卓越的道路上所付出的艰辛努力与灵慧思想；自豪于学子所取得的大小成绩。

在接下来的学期里，我们将会举办包括TEDx 、艺术展、戏剧展、大学招生展、STEAM周、运动周、父女舞会派对和国际文化周等多类型学术与非学术类活动。

愿耀中学子在不同领域力争上游，不负少年时；愿耀中学子走上更大的舞台，如群星般闪耀。
