At YCIS Beijing, we believe that Music and the Performing Arts are critical to every child’s learning journey. From the moment they enter our Early Childhood Education Programme and all the way through to Secondary School, a child is offered a myriad of opportunities. These opportunities range from orchestra or violin programmes, to school musicals, to drama festivals, to school band performances. 

在北京耀中，我们觉得音乐和表演艺术在学生的学习过程中扮演着非常重要的角色。从幼教部到中学部，我们给孩子提供了各种各样的机会，比如管弦乐队，小提琴课程，音乐剧，电影节和学校乐队表演等。

Head of Performing Arts Daniel Pearton spoke on the importance of these programmes for a child’s development at any age:

表演艺术部主管在谈到这些项目的重要性时说道：

The Performing Arts Programme is a key component to what makes the YCIS Beijing experience so unique.

From the school’s initial founding, music has been one of the centrepieces and points of distinction that our students talk about – even long after graduation. Beyond the benefit and joy that comes from the activity, learning a musical instrument at a young age also allows students to engage their literacy and numeracy skills to a higher level. 

在建校初期，音乐就是我们学校重要的一部分，也是我校学生，即便是毕业很久的学生，谈起耀中有别于其他学校的一个方面。除了能够从活动中获得开心快乐之外，让孩子从小学习一种乐器也会使得孩子的读写能力和计算能力更上一层楼。

Studying an instrument also imbues our students with important life skills that they can carry beyond the practice room and performance floor, including greater perseverance, improved concentration, and increased confidence.

学习乐器也能让孩子获得练习室和舞台之外也能受益的生活技能，比如说更有毅力，专注力更强，也更有自信。

Drama and dance programmes at YCIS Beijing build student confidence and help them to develop important skills that are transferable to all other areas of their schooling. 

戏剧和舞蹈项目培养了耀中学生的自信心，帮助学生学习适用于学习生活方方面面的重要技能。

At higher levels, students learn not only about drama skills and drama as an art form, but also improve their presentation skills, benefitting them in any future profession. 

随着学习的深入，学生们不仅仅会学习戏剧技巧和戏剧艺术表现形式，还学培养自己的表达技巧，这对他们未来的职业发展也有巨大的帮助。

The individualized attention that students receive in their Performing Arts classes is a microcosm of YCIS Beijing’s mission to foster creativity in students and enable them to find their individual passions.

对学生来说，表演艺术课的课堂就是耀中实名的缩影，旨在培养学生的创造力，让学生找到各自的道路。
