为什么重视户外学习的空间？

Why take learning outdoors?

户外学习与活动是孩子健康成长和良好性格塑造的重要组成部分。英国教育监管机构 OFSTED 在2008年的一份分析户外学习影响的报告中总结道:“如果计划和实施得当，户外学习对提高学生的综合水平、改善学生的性格、社交和思维都有显著的影响。”

Outdoor learning is an integral part of children's healthy growth and development of good character. As was concluded by OFSTED, the UK educational regulatory agency in a 2008 report analysing the impact of outdoor learning, when planned and implemented well, learning outside the classroom contributes significantly to students personal, social and emotional development.

FCG 拥有200 亩教学用地，与其说是校园，它更像是教育村或社区。我们在满员招生的情况下（2200人），人均可用面积约 60 平方米，能提供的床位共1400个。即便不在教室内，孩子也有很多户外空间开展学习与活动，身心都能得到健康发展。

Covering an area of 200 acres, FCG is more like an educational village than a campus. In the case of full enrollment (2200 students), the per capita available area is about 60m2, which can provide a total of 1400 beds. There are plenty of outdoor spaces for learning and activities, making sure that children can develop both physically and mentally.

小学楼骑楼空间

Primary School(PS) Overhang Space

广州的建筑形式很大程度上受到当地气候的影响。FCG 的校园设计把“骑楼”式廊道融入其中，阴凉的廊道空间，在任何天气下都可以满足学生的户外活动需求。如马术拓展课、踢足球、自由奔跑等。

The architecture in Guangzhou is greatly influenced by the local climate. FCG's campus design incorporates an "arcade" style corridor: a shaded area that allows students to enjoy outdoor activities in any weather, such as Equestrian Enrichment courses, football, running and so on.

初中楼廊道空间

Middle School(MS)

初中楼首层的廊道空间采取架空设计，阴凉且南北对流，通风好，同时减少了对空调的依赖，倡导环保。非常适合广州地区亚热带季风气候特点（气温高、日照多）。在这里，我们经常举办 House 活动，学术成果展，单元探究活动、涂鸦等。

In response to the subtropical monsoon climate in Guangzhou, the design of the MS includes a large covered area on the first floor which is cool and with good air flow making a perfect space for House competitions, academic exhibitions, exploration activities and large art project. The reduced need for air conditioning brings an environmental benefit.

高中楼的综合空间

Senior School(SS)

作为 FCG 标志性的建筑，高中楼大厅内我们预留了宽广的空间和设计了一条高低错落的楼梯，师生们能围坐在一起观看学术成果展示，也可以在这里举行舞会，节日集会等

As the landmark building of FCG, the SS features innovative staircases which span the central atrium providing a naturally lit and welcoming space for exhibitions, social gatherings and celebrations.

无边草地

The wide meadow

“像建造城市一样建造学校。” 除了满满的实用性，我们更需要一点浪漫来点缀这座“教育城市”。在大剧院前面我们设计了一片无边际草地，四周配有专业的户外灯光与音响, 可以举行露天活动，为学子创造丰富的社交机会。

In front of the PAC, a large open area of lawn and lush planting with professional outdoor lighting and high-quality sound systems provides a wonderful space for open-air events.

生态种植园

Eco-Gardens

FCG 拥有 2 个生态种植园，一个位于幼儿园园区，另一个位于中学楼南边。学子们能在这里进行耕作实验和生态观察，与大自然亲密接触。

Eco-gardens in EY and MS allow students to experience first-hand the wonders of growing food from seed, observing wildlife and conducting experiments in nature.

China's Future School 2.0: A Conceptual Framework states: "To become a school of the future, schools must change their education model; and the first thing to change is the teaching space." Indeed, for the realization of an ideal education, the building facilities must not only fulfil the basic requirements but also support the essence of education. If you wonder why FCG is at the leading edge of international education, you will discover our secret the moment you step on campus.
