Dear Primary Families,
Next week is Book Week! There are lots of fun activities with a book focus that will happen throughout the week, including class visits from mystery readers, D. E. A. R. (Drop Everything and Read!) and buddy reading. On Tuesday, students can come dressed as their favourite book character and on Wednesday wear a shirt that we can read.
Congratulations to the teams that have been selected to compete in the 2024 Pearl River Delta Battle of the Books on Friday, 26th April at AISG! UISG students will be competing in a friendly battle with students from six other area international schools. Good luck to the teams. The mission of Battle of the Books is to encourage and recognise students who enjoy reading and share their love of reading by connecting with the international school community.
On Wednesday 17th April, the Year 3 students will be going on a field trip. The purpose of this trip is to have an authentic learning experience, which is mainly linked to their ‘Sharing the Planet’ unit of inquiry. Students will have a hands-on experience on a farm where they can experience rewarding hard work in the outdoors whilst learning about sustainable living. They will learn about teamwork as they build a compost and understand the importance of participating in community composting at home and at school. Students will also enjoy a farm-to-table lunch using vegetables and fruit from the farm.

恭喜入选参加 4月26日星期五将在 AISG 将举行的2024年珠三角图书大战的队伍！UISG的学生将与来自其他六所地区的国际学校学生进行一场友谊赛。祝各队好运。图书大战的使命是通过与国际学校社区的联系来鼓励和认可喜欢阅读的学生并分享他们对阅读的热爱。

15 April – 19 April (Week 30A)
Dear Parents and Guardians,
The Year 12s had their last official day of school today, which was marked with a touching, poignant and joyful final assembly. This was followed by the “Grad Walk”, with the Year 12s filing out past the chorus of applause, high fives and flag waving from the rest of the student body. The Year 12s now have a week’s study leave before their exams begin on April 24th.
The long-awaited TEDx event finally took place this week. The successful event featured 2 student speakers and 2 staff speakers. Kudos to DongHyeon in Year 10 and PeiSen in Year 11 for their command of the stage and their enlightening talks.
This weekend we will be welcoming 150 educators from around China to the ACAMIS English Language Learners Conference here at UISG. There is a very impressive line-up of keynote speakers, and there are also a number of UISG teachers who are leading workshops during the conference. The Conference provides a great opportunity for Professional Development, a time to make connections between educators, and also a chance to showcase our school and its campus.
Next week is Book Week throughout the school. Secondary students are encouraged to come dressed as a favourite book character on Tuesday, and to also make sure they have a book to read throughout the week. There will be some reading buddies across the school, a book trivia event, a literary scavenger hunt, mystery readers and an opportunity to Drop Everything and Read (DEAR). This is a perfect time to promote reading and see the power and value in books.
Also next week is the UISG Rockfest, where a range of bands from different year levels get to perform in the Secondary building atrium. It is great for students to get a chance to perform to their peers, and to have a real-live audience.
Looking Ahead:
- April 13-14 – ACAMIS ELL Conference (for teachers)
- April 15-19 – Book Week
- April 15-19 – Rockfest
- April 17-20 – ACAMIS High School Football tournament in Shanghai
- April 19 – In-school maths competition (more details will be shared on Managebac)
- April 24 – Parent workshop on how we support English Language Learners in the Secondary school – “Integrating English Language Support within the Secondary Curriculum at UISG”
- April 25 – UISG Careers Fair
4月15日至4月19日(第30A周)
亲爱的家长和监护人,
今天是12年级学生的最后一天正式上学，这是一场感人、辛酸、欢乐的结业大会。紧接着是“毕业生游行”，12年级的学生鱼贯而出，同学们齐声鼓掌、击掌、挥舞旗帜。在4月24日考试开始前，12年级的学生现在有一周的学习假。
期待已久的TEDx活动终于在本周成功举行！有2名学生和2名老师演讲。向10年级的DongHyeon和11年级的PeiSen致敬，感谢他们对舞台的掌控和富有启发性的演讲。
本周末，我们将欢迎来自中国各地的150名教育工作者参加ACAMIS英语学习者大会。本次会议的主讲人阵容令人印象深刻，也有许多美国国际大学的老师主持研讨会。会议为专业发展提供了一个很好的机会，是教育者之间建立联系的机会，也是展示我们学校和校园的机会。
下周是全校的图书周。鼓励中学生在周二打扮成最喜欢的书中角色，并确保他们在一周内都有一本书可读。学校里会有一些阅读伙伴，一个书籍琐事活动，一个文学寻宝游戏，神秘读者和一个放下一切阅读的机会(DEAR)。这是一个促进阅读和看到书籍的力量和价值的完美时机。
下周还有UISG摇滚音乐节，来自不同年级的乐队将在中学大楼中庭表演。对于学生来说，有机会在同龄人面前表演，并有真实的观众，这是很好的。
展望未来:
- 4月13-14日—ACAMIS ELL会议(面向教师)
- 4月15日至19日——图书周
- 4月15-19日——摇滚节
- 4月17日至20日—ACAMIS高中足球锦标赛在上海举行
