As students of an international school, it is important for us to understand and respect the cultural traditions of the countries where we live and study. By learning about Chinese culture and history, we can gain a greater appreciation of the country and its people. We can also use this konwledge to build bridges between cultures and promote understanding and respect. Commemoration is not only about looking back on the past, but also about celebrating the present and building a better future. By learning from our ancestors, we can gain a greater appreciation for the values and traditions that have shaped our world. We can also use these lessons to build a better future,one that is based on respect, understanding and cooperation.

作为国际学校的学生，了解和尊重我们国家的文化传统非常重要。通过学习中国的文化和历史，我们可以对这个国家和人民有更多的了解，我们还可以利用这些知识，在不同文化之间架起桥梁，促进理解和尊重。纪念活动不仅仅是为了回顾过去，也是为了庆祝当下和建设一个更好的未来，通过向我们的祖先学习，我们可以对于构建我们共同的价值观和传统有更多的了解。我们也可以利用这些知识来建设一个更好的未来，一个基于尊重、理解和合作的未来。

庆祝的意义

演讲者：G11 Water班 薛子腾Thompson

Celebration is an essential component of our academic institutions. It builds community, inspires motivation, enhances emotional well-being, and cultivates unity. As we move forward, let us not forget the importance of celebration and strive to incorporate it into our daily lives. Let us celebrate our achievements, both large and small, and acknowledge the accomplishments of others. Let us do so not only to recognize hard work and dedication but also to inspire a brighter future for ourselves and those who come after us.

成长带给了我们自由和机会，也带来了责任和期望

演讲者：G10 Metal 班 柳承宪Theo

Growth is not only a process of maturing physically and becoming more outwardly confident and experienced,but it is also inwardly stepping nearly to completion,by discovering your purposes and dreams.Growth not only presents to us freedom and access,but also responsibilities and expectations from other which were perhaps unwanted by ourselves.

Growing up is an unstable process because of how it affects each and everyone of us differently.It is a process of standing up firmly in the  society.And  most  importantly,growing  up makes us realize the realization that we are becoming strong enough to stand on our own as individuals,but at the same time,being parts of  a social race,we are still interconnected with others in many ways.

But don't you be letdown by what people who have spent longer time growing up than you tell you,about how life just keeps getting harder,or how the society keeps getting colder.Whatever hardships that come,we will all be prepared for them by the time we reach that stage,the way we are doing quite well as middle and high schoolers,even when we have all vainly worried about this very stage as primary schoolers.Just live every day with an urge to develop,and one day,we would all be standing in places higher than what we have ever dreamed.

成长不仅是一个身体上成熟、外在更加自信和经验丰富的过程，也是内心逐渐走向完整的过程，通过发现自己的目标和梦想。成长不仅给予我们自由和机会，还带来了来自他人的责任和期望，这些可能并非我们所期望的。

成长是一个不稳定的过程，因为它对每个人都有不同的影响。这是一个在社会中站稳脚跟的过程。最重要的是，成长让我们意识到我们正在变得足够强大，可以作为个体独立生活，但同时，作为社会的一部分，我们在很多方面仍然与他人息息相关。

但不要被那些比你成长时间更长的人告诉你生活会变得越来越艰难，或者社会会变得越来越冷漠。无论遇到什么困难，当我们达到那个阶段时，我们都将做好准备，就像我们作为中学生和高中生做得相当出色一样，即使我们在小学生时对这个阶段都曾空想担忧。只要怀着发展的渴望来生活，总有一天，我们都将站在比我们曾经梦想的更高的位置上。

我梦想有一天，你们会庆祝

正念，使我们以优雅的方式应对挑战

演讲者：G11 Metal 班 郝轩卿Gabrielle

As we navigate the demands of our academic and professional lives, the concept of mindfulness for performance becomes a valuable ally. It empowers us to navigate challenges with grace, to learn from setbacks without dwelling on them, and to savor saiver moments of success without being consumed by future expectations. In conclusion, let us embrace the power of mindfulness as a guiding principle for performance. Whether on stage or in the everyday scenarios of our lives, let us approach each moment with a heightened sense of awareness and a commitment to being fully present. In doing so, we unlock our true potential, creating performances that are not only impressive but deeply authentic.

在我们应对学业和职业生活的压力时，正念的表现成为了一个有价值的盟友。它使我们能够优雅地应对挑战，从挫折中汲取教训而不沉溺于其中，并享受成功的美好时刻而不被未来的期望所消耗。总的来说，让我们将正念作为表现的指导原则。无论是在舞台上还是在日常生活的场景中，让我们都以更高度的意识和全身心的投入来面对每一个时刻。通过这样做，我们可以释放出真正的潜力，创造出不仅令人印象深刻的表现。

Mindfulness is the equivalent to training your physical muscle to be able to hold up weights of action. Mindfulness is the training of your mental muscle to hold up mental challenges in your head. Yes, as much as you have muscle power to accomplished physical task, you must also grow your mental muscle to overcome mental challenge. How do you grow your mental muscle?

How do you grow your mental muscle? The practice of mindfulness offers us a way. It's a method of being fully present and engaged in the moment, aware of your thoughts and feelings without distraction or judgment. With mindfulness, you can learn to sit with the discomfort of an unsolved problem or an unmet challenge, acknowledging its presence but not allowing it to overwhelm you. This mental discipline is like lifting weights with your brain; with each challenge faced mindfully, your mental resilience grows.

正念等同于训练你的肉体肌肉，使其能够承受行动的重量。正念是训练你的心理肌肉在你的脑海中支撑心理挑战。是的，正如你拥有完成物理任务的肌肉力量一样，你也必须培养你的心理肌肉来克服心理挑战。你怎样增强你的心理肌肉？

你怎样增强你的心理肌肉？正念的实践为我们提供了一种方式。这是一种完全活在当下并全情投入的方法，意识到你的思想和感受，不受分心或评判的干扰。通过正念，你可以学会面对未解决的问题或未满足的挑战时保持平静，承认它们的存在，但不让它们压倒你。这种心理纪律就像用你的大脑举重；每次有意识地面对挑战，你的心理韧性就会增长。
