Everybody was Kung Fu Learning 每个人都学习功夫

At Yew Chung International School of Beijing, physical education is an essential component of the Primary and Secondary curriculums, as intertwining physical and academic enrichment benefits students in myriad ways. Yet in addition to traditional sports such as football, basketball, volleyball and swimming, Primary students have spent recent weeks involved in an activity that is deeply rooted in Chinese culture: kung fu.

在北京耀中国际学校，体育运动是小学和中学课程的一个重要组成部分，因为体育训练和学术课程可以相辅相成的让学生以各种方式受益。除了足球，篮球，排球和游泳等传统体育项目之外，小学生最近几周还参加了一项深深植根于中国文化的活动：功夫。

Joined by teachers from Xie’s Martial Arts studio, students have been learning about the physical, mental, and social aspects of kung fu – elements which also align directly with YCIS Beijing’s own stated Mission, Principles and Practices.

与来自谢氏武术工作室的老师们一起，学生们从身体、心理、社会等方面学习功夫，这些也恰恰与北京耀中的使命，原则和实践相一致。

To explain more, including the types of activities that students engaged in and how they align with YCIS Beijing’s educational ethos, we speak with Primary Physical Education Teacher Amy Sims.
