Celebrating Milestones on Founder’s Day 楚珩日—庆祝耀中里程碑
Last Friday morning, our Yew Chung International School of Beijing campus was abuzz with anticipation as students, teachers and staff were preparing themselves to tune in to a live video broadcast uniting all Yew Chung International School (YCIS) and Yew Wah International Education School (YWIES) campuses across the globe. Our network of schools gathered to honour and commemorate our School Founder, Madam Tsang Chor-hang, by hosting exciting activities, across our Honglingjin campus and the sports fields, such a singing “Hello, Nihao from Beijing” created by our Music teacher, Gordon Robb, and a variety sports games.
上星期五上午，北京耀中国际学校充满了期待。学生、教师和员工准备收看现场直播。直播将全球的耀中国际学校和耀华国际学校连接起来。我们学校在位于红领巾公园的校园和体育场举办了激动人心的活动，例如歌唱由我们的音乐教师Gordon Robb创作的名为“Hello, Nihao from Beijing“的歌曲和体育比赛，大家聚集在一起，以纪念我们的学校创始人曾楚珩女士。

Yew Chung’s Legacy
The legacy of Yew Chung Education dates back to 1932 when Madam Tsang Chor-hang, at the age of 16, founded in Hong Kong the very first Kindergarten and Primary School of what has today become a renowned network of pioneering schools. Our Founder had a unique vision that was anchored by values and principles which sought to nurture citizens with a global perspective and to educate students beyond the classroom walls.
耀中的历史
耀中教育机构的历史可追溯至1932年，当时16岁的曾楚珩女士在香港创办了第一所幼儿园和小学，成长为今日著名的教育机构。我们的创始人有一个独特的愿景，这个愿景以价值观和原则为基础，致力于培养具有全球视野的公民，不局限于在教室内教育学生。
Yew Chung's Pioneering International Education System
Yew Chung is recognized as one of the most innovative international schools introducing a new education system, where International’ is not defined as ‘Western’ but it is a combination of the best of the Eastern and Western cultures and implemented through a pioneering model of bilingual and bi-cultural education and a unique model of Co-Principalship and Co-Teaching. “Our vision was to create a new type of citizen for the 21st century, where the acquisition of the two dominant cultures is essential.” said Dr. Betty Chan, now our CEO and School Supervisor.
耀中领先的国际教育体系
耀中被认为是最具创新力的国际学校之一，传播新的教育体系。我们认为国际化不等于“西化”，而是东西方文化的最佳结合，实现双语和多文化教育的开创性模型，以及双校长制和双教师制的独特模型。“我们的愿景是为21世纪培育新型的公民，在21世纪，掌握两种主流文化至关重要。”现任行政总裁兼校监的陈保琼博士说。
Happy 87th anniversary to Yew Chung. To many more years of leadership in the promotion of true international education, intercultural understanding and global citizenship from Early Childhood to Tertiary.
祝贺耀中成立87周年。感谢耀中多年来在促进真正的国际教育、跨文化理解和全球公民意识方面发挥的领导作用。
