与家长会面

//

本周三，我们有幸邀请到了80多位家长，亲临VPA参与孔博士“咖啡之约”，与孔博士一起喝喝咖啡，进行面对面交流和探讨。

这两场“咖啡之约”的重点在于介绍我们即将开办的VPA中学，其中包括课程框架、学习内容等。

延续小学的课程框架，我们的课程包含了基础课型程、探究型课程和拓展型课程，拓展型课程又包含了身心发展、文化自信、国际胜任力、创新思维四个核心模块。

中学也会保持分层教学，给不同层次的孩子提供不同程度，但真正适合每个人的优质教学。我们的教学既有深度，又有广度，由概念出发，吸取知识，再实践技能。我们的双语教育也会继续专注于阅读，强化分级阅读、以读促写。

我们还给学生们准备了多条升学路径，为他们的未来提供更多的选择，助他们走向更广阔的天地：

· 所有小学生在达到基本要求后可直升本校初中部；

· 初中毕业生在同等条件下可获香港沪江维多利亚学校(VSA)优先录取；

· 或者可以在国内外顶尖的IBDP、A-Level、AP、DSE等高中项目课程中快速适应和融入；

· 维多利亚(中国)教育集团也拟在深圳开办高中部，VPA初中毕业生在达到要求以后在未来也或许可直升VPA高中部。

在此活动的前一天，我们还开展了第二次家长教师会（PTA），与家长代表们共同探讨学校存在的问题和解决方案，为了让我们的学校可以越办越好。

Meeting with parents

//

This Wednesday, we were very pleased to have over 80 parents join with us in Dr. Koong"s "Coffee Chat," to drink some coffee with her and communicate with her.

The "Coffee Chat" was focusing on introducing our upcoming middle school and its cirriculum.

Continuing with what we have for elementary school, our cirriculum includes the fundamental courses, inquiry-based courses and expanded courses. Expanded courses contains four parts called "CORE."

We will keep our differenciation, to provide learnings in different levels to different students. Our teaching not only has its depth, but also has a wide range. We start from the concepts, to receive contents, and then practice skills. Our bilingual education will also continue to focus on levelled reading, and read to write.

We"ve also prepared multiple pathways for students to have more choices in the future and to strive in the world:

· All students from our VPA elementary can go straight up to middle school after meeting the basic requirements;

· graduates from our middle schoolwill be given priority in admission to VSA;

· or they can attend other high schools with IBDP, A-Level, AP, DSE, etc;

· we are also planning to have our high school in the future.

On Tuesday, we had our second PTA meeting, and discussed the problems and solutions for our school to improve with parents.

不管是用中文，还是英文，不管是通过口头表达，还是书面表达，又或是绘画，以及各种各样的方式，在VPA，我们给每个孩子同等的机会去发光发亮，鼓励他们勇敢地表达自己。

VPA精彩教学

Curious George提问箱就是一个孔博士想到的，用来鼓励孩子们表达的工具，我们希望他们能将自己脑子里精彩的想法和问题都抛出来，能够不断思考、不断探究、不断实践、不断进步。

我们所有的努力都是为了给学生们提供最优质的教学和环境，助力他们与世界接轨，希望他们能够扎根中国、放眼世界。

VPA Great Learnings!

The Curious George question box is a great tool, came up by Dr. Koong, to encourge children to express. We hope that they can pull out their amazing thinkings and questions, and will be able to think, explore, practive, and improve constantly.

All of our hard works is to provide students the best education and environment, help them to connect with the world, and we hope that they can stay rooted in China while looking at the whole world.
