The school year just passed marked the 85th anniversary of the Yew Chung Education Foundation (YCEF). The foundation dates back to 1932, when Madam Tsang Chor-hang opened the first Yew Chung kindergarten in Hong Kong – an early champion of the play-based approach to learning that is now widely practised in kindergartens around the world. 

刚刚过去的学年是耀中教育机构（YCEF）成立85周年。该机构的历史可以追溯到1932年，当时曾楚珩女士在香港开设了第一所耀中幼儿园—这是以游戏为基础的学习方法的早期倡导者，现已在世界各地的幼儿园广泛实施。

Under the directorship of Dr Betty Chan, Madam Tsang’s daughter, the foundation has grown into one of the largest network of schools in the world. 34 campuses across China and the US provide education from kindergarten to Bachelor degree programmes.

在曾女士的女儿陈保琼博士的领导下，该机构已发展成为世界上最大的学校网络之一。中国和美国共设立34个校区提供从幼儿园到学士学位课程的教育。

To commemorate our significant history, in October last year YCIS Beijing took part in Founder’s Day celebrations. As has become recent tradition, the school linked up on live broadcast with all the other schools across the foundation. The feed is watched by more than 10,000 students and staff who, when their school is called, are given ten seconds to greet their sister schools. When YCIS Beijing’s turn came, students gave an elaborate performance featuring six Chinese tanggu drums and a choreographed card stunt revealing a picture of Madame Tsang Chor-hang.  Beijing’s performance garnered cheers and applause from all of the other school locations.

为了纪念我们的重要历史，去年10月，北京耀中国际学校参加了楚珩日庆祝活动。一如最近的传统，学校连线整个机构范围内的所有其他学校进行了直播。活动由超过10,000名学生和工作人员观看，当一个学校被叫到名字时，他们有十秒钟的时间欢迎姊妹校。当轮到北京耀中时，学生们精心演绎了中国堂鼓和一个精心设计的卡片特技，展示了曾楚珩女士的照片。北京耀中的表演赢得了所有其他学校的欢呼和掌声。

The rest of the day was filled with activities and games that give students a chance to win house points and bring about a sense of school spirit, community and connectedness that transcends year groups. 

当天余下的时间里充满了各种活动和游戏，学生们有机会赢得积分，感受跨年龄段的学校精神、社区感和联结感。
