如果你很好奇究竟家長們提出了什么問題，還有在活動后了解了什么，不如看看以下由我們小專家們提供的解答。

五年級的Nathan, Chael, 和二年級的Sai Tajus-----G5 Nathan, G5 Chael, and G2 Sai Tajus

Question 1

我們的上課時間是多少天?

How many days do we come to school?

我們的在校時間為180天。每年至少93%的出勤率以保證學(xué)生順利升學(xué)。這意味著我們不能積累超過18次無故缺席。如果我們因生病而錯過上課，我們需要向校長Ms Ann出示醫(yī)生證明，才不會被當作是無故缺席。

We have 180 days of school. In order to be promoted to the next grade level, we need to go to school at least 93% of the year. This means we cannot accumulate more than 18 unexcused absences. If we miss class due to illness, we need to present a medical certificate to Principal Ms. Ann so that she will consider it as an excused absence.

Question 2

我們什么時間到校，什么時間放學(xué)?

What time do we come to school and at what time do we leave school?

寄宿學(xué)生的到校時間為每周日晚18：30前。我們的走讀生應(yīng)該每天7:45左右到校。所有學(xué)生應(yīng)在8:00在班級教室報到。

Our boarding students arrive on Sunday night before 18:30. Our Day Boarders should be dropped off around 7:45 every day. All students report to their homeroom teachers at 8:00.

不參加周一至周四CASE課外活動的學(xué)生，家長可以下午4點在學(xué)校大門接學(xué)生。參加CASE課外活動的學(xué)生，家長需要下午六點準時接送。

From Monday to Thursday, if Day students do not want to take part in extra-curricular activities called CASE, they can be picked up at 4 pm by the Front Gate. If they participate in CASE, they need to be picked up promptly at 6 pm.

各位家長請遵守下午接孩子的時間，如果有三次遲到接孩子的記錄，將無法再加入CASE課外活動。請理解我們的老師還有其他教學(xué)工作，為免耽誤時間，感謝您的配合。

Please understand that our teachers have other responsibilities so they should not be spending their time waiting for you. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

每周五，小學(xué)下午3:30放學(xué)，中學(xué)下午4點放學(xué)。再次要求家長不要遲到，因為老師放學(xué)后需要進行教學(xué)會議。

On Fridays, primary dismissal is at 3:30 pm while secondary dismissal is at 4 pm. Parents are again requested not to be late because teachers need to attend meetings.

Question 3

我們在學(xué)校穿什么?

What do we wear to school?

東華文澤學(xué)校統(tǒng)一穿著校服，目的是讓學(xué)校營造一個安全和有序的學(xué)習(xí)環(huán)境，同時可以避免因不同著裝風(fēng)格造成的攀比和分心，使學(xué)校管理更加有紀律性。

TWIS has a uniform to help create a safe and orderly environment, to instill discipline and to eliminate competition and distractions caused by varied dress styles. We have four types of uniform that students are expected to wear starting next week.

Question 4

我們在學(xué)校說什么語言?

What language do we speak in school?

英語是學(xué)校官方的交流語言。作為英語為非母語(EAL)的學(xué)生，來到TWIS是期望自己的英語口語和書面語更加優(yōu)秀。即使母語為英語的家長也希望他們的孩子的英語水平不斷提高。學(xué)生可以在課堂討論中使用他們的母語，但是，當他們向老師提出自己的想法時，學(xué)校鼓勵學(xué)生使用英語交流。

English is the language of communication and instruction in school. English as an Additional Language (EAL) students come to TWIS wanting and expecting to become more fluent in spoken and written English. Parents of native speakers of English expect that their children will also develop sophisticated, confident use of English. Students can use their mother tongue in classroom discussion but when they present their ideas to their teachers they are encouraged to speak in English.

Question 5

放學(xué)后我們做什么?

What do we do after school?

放學(xué)后我們有課外活動，這個課外活動叫CASE，CASE這四個字母代表創(chuàng)意(Creativity)、活動(Activity)、服務(wù)(Service)和英語(English)。學(xué)生可以每天選擇兩個課外活動，這樣他們就可以學(xué)習(xí)到新技能并參與有趣的活動。

We have extra-curricular activities called CASE, which stands for Creativity, Activity, Service and English. Students can choose two clubs a day so that they can learn new skills and engage in fun activities.

Question 6

家長如何知道我們在學(xué)校里發(fā)生了什么?

How can parents find out what is happening in school?

家長可以通過電子郵件聯(lián)系老師。我們還將有一個PowerSchool家校平臺，大家可以在這里閱讀公告，并提出問題。如有其他咨詢，家長們也可以打電話給學(xué)校。

Parents can reach the teachers by email. We will also have a PowerSchool Parent Portal where parents can read announcements, and ask questions. For other inquiries, parents can also call the school.

Question 7

我們可以在學(xué)校慶祝生日嗎?還有其他的慶祝活動嗎?

Can we celebrate birthdays in school? What other events do we celebrate?

是的，學(xué)生們可以在學(xué)校慶祝他們的生日。您可以遞送生日蛋糕或其他健康零食到學(xué)校，學(xué)生可以在茶點時段與同學(xué)們分享。我們會在名為COLA ( Celebration Of Learning Assembly) 的早會慶祝大家在學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)的成果。

Yes, we can celebrate your child’s birthday. You can send a birthday cake or other healthy treats that students can share during snack time. We celebrate what we learn from school through assemblies called COLA. It is short for Celebration of Learning Assembly.

我們視家長為學(xué)校的合作伙伴，一同攜手合作，幫助和鼓勵學(xué)生的個人、社交和學(xué)術(shù)發(fā)展。今后我們會組織更多的家?；顒樱诖议L們踴躍參與!

We see parents as our partners working hand-in-hand to support and encourage students' personal, social and academic development. More parent-school activities will be organized in the future, we encourage your participation and look forward to seeing you!
