Founder's Day Highlights 85 Years of Community 85周年校庆

https://v.qq.com/txp/iframe/player.html?vid=d0563wg1snp&width=500&height=375&auto=0Last week, Yew Chung International School of Beijing celebrated Founder’s Day, marking the 85th Anniversary of the Yew Chung Education Foundation (YCEF).  

上周，北京耀中国际学校庆祝了耀中教育机构创办85周年。

Though it began as a single kindergarten class in Hong Kong in 1932, YCEF has since grown into one of the world’s largest school networks with 34 campuses in Hong Kong, Mainland China and the US, providing education for students from kindergarten through Primary school, Secondary school, and even bachelor’s degree programmes in education.

尽管在1932年创校之初，我们仅仅是一个普通的幼儿园，现在耀中机构已在香港、大陆及美国等地建立了39个学校，为学生们提供从幼儿园至高中及本科学位的优质教育，是世界最大的学校机构之一。

But what exactly is the annual Founder’s Day celebration, and how does it help students and staff throughout the school network to feel a sense of togetherness and a common shared purpose? Don Collins, Head of Secondary at YCIS Beijing, shines further light on the event and the meaning of Founder’s Day.

那么，我们是怎么庆祝每年的校庆，使得各个校区师生员工都能感受到团结的氛围及我们共同的目标呢？北京耀中国际学校中学部校长Don Collins将和大家分享此次活动的亮点及校庆日的意义。

10,000 Cheers & 10 Seconds of Spirit

万人现场互动

One of the most important activities every Founder’s Day is the live broadcast connecting schools and students throughout the foundation. Led by two student emcees from the YCIS Hong Kong Secondary campus, the video feed is watched by more than 10,000 students and staff who, when their school is called, stand, wave and cheer enthusiastically for “10 Seconds of Spirit” in order to greet their sister schools.

每年校区最重要的一个活动就是通过现场直播和耀中机构的其他学校现场互动。香港耀中中学部的两名同学主持整个活动，超过1万名师生现场参与直播活动。每个姐妹学校都有十秒钟的风采展示时间。
