异彩纷呈的活动构成了精彩且完满的学年，而在其中，何其荣幸，我们成为了你们的老师。我们相遇于TWIS开学的第一天——你们正式成为一名MYP中学生的第一天，当时你们身上所散发出的那种对学习和社交生活的期盼热烈得让人至今难忘。

你们精力充沛、真诚友善、富有爱心、独立自主。在集体中，你们经历了跌宕起伏，而你们也学会了去克服学术和社交层面上的困难，竭力为实现自己的目标而奋力前进，作为见证者的我们，感到非常自豪。

时光飞逝，而本学年的一系列精彩庆典让人流连忘返。下午茶音乐会、学院运动会、游戏之夜……只是我们参与过的芸芸活动中的微小部分。于我们而言，能为才华横溢、能力拔萃的你们授课是一种享受。我们相信，你们会在人生的路途上茁壮成长。在人生道路奔跑之时，请持续吸纳新知识、持续成长，继续享受乐趣。我们期待在下一学年见证你们获得更大的成就，并共同为这些成就喝彩。 ^[译]

This school year was full of events, and we feel grateful for having this honor to be your teachers. We remember meeting all of you on the first day of school and having many hopes for your academic and social life at TWIS. Most of you were new to this environment and all of you were entering the independent life of MYP. 

We lived through this school year together and got to know you as energetic, friendly, curious, caring, and self-motivated students. As a group, you had your ups and downs. As your homeroom teachers, we feel extremely proud of those who outrode their academic or social challenges, and those who are working hard and steadily progressing to meet their goals.

The time has gone so quickly. Who could forget the events that took place this school year? Tea-time showcases, house games, and game nights are just a few of the events that the entire grade six has attended actively and successfully. For us, as your homeroom teachers, it has been a pleasure to teach every one of you. You are a marvelous group of talented students and we are sure that you will thrive on the path of life. As you continue with your life journey, keep learning, keep growing and keep having fun. We are looking forward to witnessing the great accomplishments of our wonderful grade 6 next school year and celebrating your success together.

你们是一群积极向上的学习者，总是以各式各样的途径展现领导力、沟通力、理解能力和参与度，倾尽一切可能。你们毫无保留地向大众展示艺术天分、积极生活的态度，以及在舞台上从容表达自我的能力。你们学会了如何讲述自己的忧虑和恐惧，并在心理辅导课程中学会更高效地与他人沟通。

你们在基础教育的学习旅程几近过半。然而，前方还有无止境的学问等着你们去探索，去发掘。要知道，一位真正的IB学习者，对于学习是永不止步的。俗话说，熟能生巧。你们所努力奋斗的一切——在钢琴上敲下每一个黑白键，将篮球投进篮筐，在班级面前演示学术报告，在素描纸上描绘的每一笔，或在电脑上写下的每一段代码——都是在积攒成长的点滴，而不是徒劳无功的。

美国哲学家约翰·杜威（John Dewey）曾经说道：“如果我们像昨天那样教导今天的学生，我们就剥夺了他们的明天。”这句话的意思是，我们所有的老师都在竭尽所能地将你们的优点与才华发挥出来，为你们未来的美好生活和成功事业做好充足的准备。我们督促你们在课堂的学习，但当你们离开教室时，学习不能因此截然而止。你们正跻身于一个数字化的时代，所以，好好把握这样的优势。

作为教师，我们也时常从你们的身上收获向上的力量。你们的努力、毅力，以及对于观点的不畏表达，都是值得赞赏的。所以不要害怕犯错，永远要学会尽力而为！ ^[译]

You are an exciting community of learners demonstrating leadership, communication, understanding and participation in every possible way. You showed your artistic nature, dedication to the active lifestyle and confident presentation of your subjects on stage. You learned how to express your concerns and fears and communicate with each other more efficiently during Pastoral Care sessions.

You are already more than halfway through your school life journey. However, there is still a lot to explore. Remember, a true IB learner is one who never stops learning. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. Everything you do – hitting a keyboard on the piano, shooting a basketball into a hoop, presenting in front of the class, making a brushstroke or writing a code – is not a one-time activity but a diligent process of development.

John Dewey, an American philosopher, once said, "If we teach today’s students as we taught yesterday’s, we rob them of tomorrow." Thus said, all your teachers always strive to bring out the best in you to prepare you for a bright future life and a successful career. We facilitate your learning in the classroom, but it does not stop when you leave. You are immersed in the digital world, so make good use of it.

As teachers, we also get inspired and motivated by you and your actions. We praise your effort, perseverance and point of view. Do not be afraid to make mistakes, always try your best!

我们在“空荡”的教室里相遇，在而后的学年里一起为教室增添亮丽的“色彩”，这一切的发生仿佛还在昨日。今天，请接受我们诚挚的谢意，感谢你们的支持。一路走来，我们与你们一样，受益良多。

经过一年的学习，你们每个人都能够发掘自己的闪光点，也能够觉察到自己的不足。这是好事，你们可以视不足为一种挑战，去迎接它，去改善它，我们相信你们会对此有所领悟并坚持不懈。如今的你们已然成为了榜样，是PYP小学生和MYP低年级学生所仰望的大哥哥大姐姐。你们可以成为表率，成为先锋，成为可以为他人提供支持的“顶梁柱”，可以比现在做得更出色。

然而，请切记：天底下没有不劳而获的事。你们必须学会自己去寻找答案，去挖掘可靠的信源，去发问，去做进一步的探究。想要成为一位更卓越的人，则需要付出汗水、泪水。想要变得非凡，则要学会迎接困难。正如那句古话所说，一分耕耘，一分收获。勇敢地做出转变，比别人付出加倍的努力。在竞争中合作共赢。没有一位学生是一座孤岛，你们所在的群体是一片绿洲，洋溢着无尽的热情，蕴藏着无边无际的知识。尽情地分享和展示吧！即将到来的九年级也需要你们的汗水，祝你们在新的学年里一切顺利！加油！ ^[译]

It seems like yesterday that we met in the bland homeroom and have since gone on to add splashes of colour along the academic year journey. Please accept the sincere gratitude of your homeroom team in supporting us to support you. There have been many lessons for all of us to learn along the way.

By now, each of you will have discovered your strengths, and sadly your weaknesses throughout the year. The good thing in finding out your weakness, is that you can rise to the challenge, as we are certain that many of you shall continue to do so. You’re ambassadors now. You’re the big kids that PYP and the lower MYP kids look up towards. You can set great examples. You can be go-getters and pillars of support. You can be so much more than you are right now.

But, be warned: nothing comes to you. You must go to it. Seek out answers, ask many questions from reliable sources and probe further. It takes sweat, and tears (but hopefully not blood) to be better. To be the best, expect pain. That old saying, "no pain, no gain" is there for a reason. Put in a shift. Work harder than each other. Compete, but collaborate. No student is an island. You’re a class, a continent. And a wealth of passion and knowledge. Share it. Show it. All the best for the coming academic year. Grade 9 needs your sweat. Go for it!

祝贺你们顺利完成了九年级的学习旅程。想当初从8年级升学至9年级时，你们为之兴奋，同样，今天也是另一座里程碑——在下一学年，你们将进一步升入10年级。

我们为你们感到骄傲，为你们在学习上所付出的艰辛与努力而骄傲，也为你们在整个学年所坚守的原则而骄傲。我们由衷地希望你们能够继续保持这种高度的自驱力，学会剖析自我，认识自身的优点和不足。还有，请充分运用优势，取长补短，改善学术和生活层面上的欠缺。不要畏惧挑战，学会用乐观的态度来克服一切的不足。

随着你们升入10年级，PYP小学生和MYP的其他学生会将聚焦点投向你们。因此，请树立良好的榜样，以身作则。

作为你们的班主任，我们希望你们能紧随IB学习者的十大属性，并进一步磨练你们的ATL技能，从而成为一位全面发展的人。随着年级的增长，挑战和挫折或许会迎面而来，但请不要轻言放弃，努力去翻越阻碍，心怀抱负，保持胸襟开阔与耐心。 ^[译]

As your homeroom teachers, we want to congratulate you on completing your grade 9 studies successfully. When the academic year started, most of you were excited, being elevated from grade 8 to 9. Likewise, this is another milestone, as you are promoted further to grade 10 in the next academic year.

We are so proud of you because of the hard work you put into your academic tasks, and your unwavering discipline throughout the year. We encourage you to continue with this high level of self-motivation and aim for higher goals in your studies. You have discovered some of your strengths and weaknesses too. Use your strengths to make improvements in both your academic and personal lives. Rise to the challenge and be optimistic to overcome your shortfalls.

As you advance to grade 10, PYP students and the lower grades of MYP, will be focusing their eyes on you as one of the seniors of the school. Therefore, set good examples in the actions you take and the choices you make, and be good role models!

As your homeroom teachers, we want to encourage you to keep following the IB learner profile attributes, and further sharpening your ATL skills for holistic education. Challenges and frustrations may arise as you progress in your scholarly pursuits, but never give up. Strive to excel. Be ambitious, open-minded, and patient with yourselves.

能够成为你们的班主任，并见证优秀的你们步向成年，是我们的荣幸。光阴似箭，虽然无法相信，但就像人们常说的，快乐的时光总是短暂的，而我们都乐在其中。当大家回顾2021-2022学年时，大家会情不自禁地想起你们，记住你们。因为你们对整个学校社区的贡献是令人惊叹的，连TWIS的教职员工都对你们的付出赞不绝口。谢谢你们的努力，你们应该为自己的成就感到自豪！

每当想起你们在这一学年的表演，我们的脸上都会挂满笑容。我们很喜欢看“思维开阔”（open-minded）的Justin和Logan在舞者Erica的带领下表演精彩的舞蹈；喜欢看到“全面发展”（Balanced）的Hao和Lily在柔道垫上展现精湛的技术；我们也很高兴看到班上的每一位同学给予新成员Chris无微不至的关怀。这些活动成就了独一无二的你们，相信这些美好的回忆将永存于你们的脑海，连同这些学习能力一起。

你们是第一批进入DP项目的学生，我们为你们每个人及所取得的成就感到自豪，也衷心希望你们会爱上这段时光。如果你们能贯彻这一学年的学习态度，努力发挥自己的特长，那么你们的未来必定会闪耀而美好。你们是开拓者，祝愿你们一切顺利！ ^[译]

It was an honor and privilege for us to be your Homeroom teachers and watch you all grow into fine young adults. We can not believe how the time has gone quickly but you know what they say - time flies when you are having fun. When people look back to the 2021-2022 academic year, they will inevitably remember it because of you. Your contribution across the whole school has been amazing and all of the staff talk fondly of you as a senior group. You have worked really hard and achieved a great deal and you should be very proud of yourselves for what you have achieved.

All performances you showed us during the year always put a smile on our faces. We enjoyed watching "Open-Minded Justin and Logan" performing dances with "Leading Erica". Seeing "Balanced Hao and Lily" rolling on judo mats was another unforgettable memory for all of us. We were also pleased to see you have shown great care and love to our new team member Chris. These events were unique and will give you memories that last forever as well as skills you will use in your future.

As next year's first DP students we are so proud of you all and all you have achieved, and we hope you will look back fondly on your time here. You are all set for amazing futures if you continue to work hard and apply yourselves as you have done this school year. Congratulations and best wishes to our trailblazers!
