有个好消息要告诉大家！深圳外事办已向我校尚未回到中国的外教开具正式邀请函，允许他们回到中国。

They are all now in the process of sorting out visas and flights. Getting appointments for visas is actually very difficult because they have to use a nominated Chinese Visa Centre and in some of them it is very difficult to secure a slot. There are also reduced numbers of flights to China at this time and they will obviously have to do quarantine on return all of which adds to the timeframe. However, we shall have some of them back immediately after the October holiday and the rest later that month.

现在，老师们已经开始办理签证，准备预定航班等返校事宜。但由于英国疫情及其它因素，要成功预约英国大使馆的签证有一定难度。如今，到中国的航班也有所减少，如果能顺利回到中国，他们将进行为期2周的隔离，因此这也延长了返校的时间。但无论如何，10月国庆假期结束之后，部分外教有望能顺利返校，接下来所有老师会陆续到岗。

They are excited about returning and we are very much looking forward to seeing them here. Meanwhile, they are in contact with their co-teachers and the classes.

老师们听到这个消息都非常高兴，大家终于能重聚于此，这一刻我们期盼已久。而在顺利返岗之前，所有外教老师都会与本班中文班主任继续配合，和孩子们保持互动联系。

With best wishes,

祝好！
