Wishing You a Wonderful Golden Week Break!
Dear UISG Families,
As we approach the much-anticipated Golden Week break, I want to take a moment to express my gratitude for each of you. Your hard work, dedication, and commitment to our students and community do not go unnoticed.
Golden Week is a time to relax, recharge, and spend quality moments with family and friends. rejuvenation. As our secondary students return from camp today, I am sure they will appreciate some time to rest and share their experiences with you.
Whether you are traveling or enjoying a staycation, I wish you all a wonderful Golden Week filled with joy and relaxation!
Yours in Education,
Dr. Daniel Mullen

亲爱的 UISG 家长们，
在下周一中学生们分别去香港白蜡和清远英德的夏令营。我非常开心的看到中学生们在为此准备着。
这个一年一度的夏令营活动可以让学生们通过户外冒险和团队建设来锻炼他们应对挑战，共同合作，进行思考的能力。有助于提高他们解决问题的能力，同时帮助他们建立信心和归属感。
让我们一起支持他们去探索吧，我期待着他们回来与我们分享经验。祝大家周末愉快!
诚挚的问候
Dr. Daniel Mullen

Friday September 27th
Happy Holidays, everyone! We made it to the first holiday of the school year, and I’d like to thank you all for the support you have shown both me and our teachers over this time. It has been a wonderful few weeks getting to know all our children and families.
Parent Volunteers
Want to support the students in our school? Eager to see what learning looks like at UISG? Happy to give a few hours a week to different classes? Well, you have come to the right place…
Here at UISG, we encourage parents to be on campus and be part of the learning. We have made the document attached to this message outlining the purpose, role and requirements of regular parent volunteers. If you are interested in this role, have a read through the document and then contact the primary office to start the process.
We are currently looking for some support in our Mother Tongue classes, Early Years and reading with students across the Primary School. If you have any other special talents or suggestions of how you could help on campus, we’d love to hear them!
Behaviour Flowchart (full version attached to this message)
If you’ve read through the Parent/Student Handbook, you may be familiar with the different levels of behaviour issues that we sometimes see from students. We’ve taken these levels and worked on a Behaviour Flowchart to help teachers, students, and parents know the procedures if any of these behaviours are demonstrated. We will share with students after the holiday but wanted you to see our new process. If you have any questions, please contact homeroom teachers or the primary office.

8 Oct – 11 Oct (Week 8A)
Dear Parents and Guardians,
For many of you this may have been a quiet week at home, with all the Year 6-10 students out on Camp. It certainly wasn’t quiet on Camp! For a week, students have been developing campcraft skills, finding out about local culture, learning kayaking skills, improving climbing skills, all with gloriously noisy discussion, laughter and conversation. I was lucky enough to spend two days in Yingde with the Year 6 and Year 7 students, and the most enjoyable part was seeing the connections students were making with their classmates, building strong interpersonal skills, and sharing experiences together. If you have not yet taken a look at the photos from the Camps, please check the links below:
Photo links for parents:

It was also a significant week for the Year 11 and 12 students. There were two important field trips – Design / Business / Economics trip to the Volkswagen factory; and a trip to visit Hong Kong Universities. There was dedicated time for Extended Essay work. There were Theory of Knowledge (TOK) one-on-one sessions. There was an extended Internal Assessment (IA) opportunity for the Sciences and other subjects. And there were some regular lessons going on as well!
MYP ePortfolio component of the eAssessment
Year 10 students have been introduced to the ePortfolio choices they have this year and have had consultation time with their Arts / Design / PHE teachers. Students need to make their final choice of ePortfolio subject straight after the holiday – a choice letter will go out on October 8th, to be returned by October 11th.

10月8日至10月11日(第8A周)
亲爱的家长和监护人,
对于许多家长来说，这可能是一个安静的一周，因为所有6-10年级的学生都参加了Camp。但Camp当中可不安静！一个星期以来，学生们一直在学习露营技能，了解当地文化，学习皮划艇技巧，提高攀岩技巧，所有这些都是在热烈的讨论、笑声和交谈中进行的。我有幸与6年级和7年级的学生在英德度过了两天，最令人愉快的部分是看到学生们与同学们建立了联系，建立了强大的人际交往能力，并在一起分享经验。如果您还没有看到营地的照片，请查看下面的链接:
6年级
7年级
8年级
9年级
10年级
对于11年级和12年级的学生来说，这也是意义重大的一周。有两次重要的实地考察——大众汽车工厂的设计/商业/经济之旅，以及参观香港的大学。有专门的时间来做扩展论文作业。有一对一的知识理论(TOK)课程。延伸了科学和其他科目的内部评估(IA)机会。还有一些常规的课程正在进行!
MYP ePortfolio是eAssessment的组成部分
我们已经向10年级的学生今年的ePortfolio选择，并与他们的艺术/设计/体育进行了咨询。学生们需要在假期结束后做出最后的选择——选择信将于10月8日发出，并在10月11日之前交回。
家长信息会
