黑利伯瑞國際學校致小學部家長的一封信

　　Dear parents and families,

　　親愛的家長們：

　　Welcome back everybody from your week-long May holiday. I know everybody had a great time! Some students travelled, others enjoyed spending time with their families and friends, whilst many of our students enjoyed some downtime at home. Our teachers continually work, but they also managed to find time to relax and enjoy doing those things not possible during the school semester. It was a refreshing time for all. Everybody has returned excited, eager and enthused to complete the remainder of the school year. It will be a busy one, which includes many exciting planned whole school events. Stay tuned for more information about these.

　　五一長假結束，歡迎大家返校開啟新的學習之旅。在七天小長假里，有的同學外出旅游，有的選擇和家人朋友共度美好時光，還有很多“宅”在家中養精蓄銳，大家的假期充實而快樂。老師們在假期仍忙于工作，但他們也能忙里偷閑，享受下這難得的休閑時光。五一長假恰是養精蓄銳之時。而今返校，心潮澎湃，整裝待發，共度本學年剩余光陰。后期將陸續著手規劃全校活動相關事宜，亦是異常忙碌。有關詳情敬請期待。

　　At the end of our last term we celebrated the ‘Reading Bug’ theme. During this theme, teachers encouraged and shared with their students their love for reading. Our students enjoyed learning more about English and Chinese literature. Reading is a very important skill to master in all cultures. Through reading, students learn more about their worlds: people, customs and histories. We learn in many ways, but reading and engaging within good literature is very important. During our last assembly we celebrated the ‘Reading Bug.’ Every student performed using English. Some of our most avid readers were rewarded with special awards. We also viewed a special video, which showed some of our parents reading with their children. Let’s continue to enjoy and share a love for reading.

　　上學期末，我校開展了“書蟲”主題活動，通過老師鼓勵指導，分享閱讀心得，鼓勵學生廣泛閱讀，激發閱讀興趣——學生們熱衷于學習更多的英漢文學作品。閱讀是得以精通各種文化的寶匙，通過閱讀，學生們能夠對這個世界產生更多的了解：人文、風俗、亦或歷史。學習的方式多種多樣，而閱讀鉆研優秀文學作品，是其中非常重要的一種。我校在上次集會中開展了“書蟲”主題活動。每位學生都用英語進行了表演，其中最熱衷閱讀的小書迷還獲得了特別獎。此外，我們也觀看了一段特殊錄像，其展現了我校家長和孩子共同閱讀的情景。希冀我校保持良好閱讀環境，營造熱愛閱讀氛圍。

　　This week twenty-five of our students began their first round of the CCTV Star of Outlook English Competition. At the time of writing this bulletin I have no news on our students’ success. However, during the holidays and this week our competition entrants worked hard on perfecting their introductory speeches. The international teachers and Academic Support Specialists worked hard with individual students to critique and provide positive feedback on the students’ work. The students’ homeroom teachers also provided the students with time to practise and tinker with their speeches before the first round. We wish all our entrants the best of luck.

　　在本周，我校25名學生已開始了他們首輪中央電視臺希望之星英語風采大賽。截止目前，我校還未獲得相關學生晉級的消息。不過無論是在假期還是本周，小選手們都在努力完善其首輪演講稿。國際教師以及相關老師也攜手合作，給予學生指導，并積極提供相關反饋。首輪賽前，班主任們亦為參賽學生提供時間空間，助其演講更臻完善。希望我校所有的參賽選手都能取得好成績。

　　Preparations are now underway for our Children’s Day Carnival. Prior to the week-long May holiday, Primary Principal Zhang began discussions with parents about their needs and wants for these exciting carnivals during a Parent Teacher Advisory committee meeting. The Children’s Day Carnival will be celebrated on the 27th May. The exact details of these events are still being negotiated between Primary Leadership, staff and parents. As parents, if you would like to contribute your ideas to our discussions, please work through our Parent Teacher Advisory Committee. If you are not sure who to contact, please ask your child’s homeroom teacher.

　　兒童節嘉年華相關事宜正在緊鑼密鼓籌備之中。五一長假之前，張校長已在家長教師咨詢會上，與家長們就此激動人心的嘉年華的注意事項和需要事宜進行了商討。兒童節嘉年華將在5月27日舉行。小學部領導層、教職工和家長們尚在商討活動具體細節。如果您也想為嘉年華活動提供意見建議，請聯系我們的家長教師咨詢委員會(可通過班主任獲得具體聯系人信息)。

　　Again, thank you for the wonderful contributions you make to our growing primary school. We received some positive feedback from you through our parent teacher meetings, which made us feel very proud and happy about the work we are doing with your children. We always have a lot of work to do, but with your help and support, we can continue to create and build a highly supportive and engaging learning community for your children. Please feel free to contact me at the school if there is anything you would like to talk further about.

　　再次感謝您為我們小學部發展所作出的貢獻。能在家長會得到您的積極反饋，實感自豪和歡欣。對孩子的教育工作，我們還需孜孜不倦，鍥而不舍，不過在您們的幫助和支持下，我們能夠為您的孩子創建一個支持度更高、學習氛圍更濃的校園環境。如果您有任何建議，請隨時與我校聯系。

　　At Haileybury, every child matters, every day.
