At today’s flag-raising ceremony, Lillian and Eavan from Class 1X, and Cecilie and Cassia from Class 1O got on the stage together and delivered speeches under the national flag with the theme of “Creativity, Critical Thinking, Communication and Cooperation - Facing the Unknown and Standing in the Center of the Future”. They pointed out that the world is full of new and interesting things, and that exploring the future is driven by creativity. Through imagination, such as in an architecture class, simple ideas can be realized into extraordinary results. They emphasized that critical thinking is a “superpower” for problem-solving people, and encouraged everyone to ask “why?”. At the same time, the importance of communication should not be overlooked, and speaking clearly and listening carefully is the key to learning from each other. They mentioned that teamwork makes individuals stronger, such as collaboration in PBL classes, along which teachers’ help, trust, and respect. Finally, the four students, speaking as “future teenagers”, expressed their determination to embrace the unknown world with creative thinking, critical thinking, communication and teamworking skills.

随后，彭平老师宣布了VBS“未来城市”项目的启动。作为全球最大的青少年STEM竞赛之一，该项目由美国工程师协会主办，以“未来城市”为主题，致力于激发学生运用创意和科技解决现实问题。项目周期横跨2025年5月至2026年1月，最终将呈现城市论文、模型与计划等丰硕成果。目前，该项目已向5-8年级同学敞开招募大门，彭老师热情鼓励那些怀揣探索激情、善于时间管理且渴望提升英文能力的同学踊跃报名，共同创造属于自己的未来城市。

Subsequently, Mr. Peng Ping announced the launch of the VBS “Future City” project. As one of the world’s largest youth STEM competitions, the program is organized by the American Society of Engineers and aims to inspire students to use creativity and technology to solve real-world problems under the theme of “Cities of the Future”. The project will run from May 2025 to January 2026 and will culminate in a comprehensive urban thesis, model, and plan. At present, the program has opened its doors to students from grades 5-8, and Mr. Peng warmly encourages those students who have a passion for exploration, are good at time management, and are eager to improve their English skills to sign up and create their own future city together.

仪式最后，在全体师生的注视下，孙晓萌老师宣布了第7-8周获得“金海豚”荣誉的班级，派驻第一书记刘晓娟老师、督导与课程发展中心主任周金凤老师、团支部书记陈佳敏老师为获奖班级颁奖。

附件：【国旗下的讲话】

Lillian: Dear teachers and students, good morning! We are Lillian and Eavan from Class 1X. They are Cecilie and Cassia from Class 1O. Today, our speech topic is “Creativity, Critical Thinking, Communication and Collaboration: Embracing the Unknown, Standing at the Center of the Future.” 

涂依文：尊敬的老师们，亲爱的同学们，大家早上好！我们是一年级X班的杨礼宁、涂依文，他们是一年级O班的李希言、韩羽扬。今天我们演讲的主题是：创造力、批判性思维、交流与合作—迎接未知，站在未来中央。

Lillian: The world is full of new and exciting things. To explore the future, we need creativity. Creativity helps us draw, build, and invent new things. Like in our architecture class, when we use our imagination, we can turn simple ideas into amazing things.

涂依文：世界充满了新奇有趣的事物。想要探索未来，我们需要创造力。创造力可以让我们画画、搭建和发明新东西。就像我们在建筑教育课上一样，当我们发挥想象力，就能把简单的想法变成了不起的东西。

Lillian: Thinking is like a superpower. When we have a question, we should ask “Why?”Critical thinking helps us solve problems and make smart choices.

涂依文：思考就像一种超级能力，当我们有问题时，我们要问“为什么？”批判性思维可以帮助我们解决问题，做出聪明的决定。

Cecilie: We all have great ideas, but how can we share them with others? That’s why communication is important. When we speak clearly, people can understand us. When we listen carefully, we learn from each other. In our everyday classes, I should be present, I should listen.

韩羽扬：我们每个人都有很棒的想法！但是，我们该如何和别人分享呢？这就是为什么交流很重要。当我们表达清楚，别人就能明白我们的想法。当我们认真倾听，我们就能互相学习。在我们每天的课堂上，我汇报，我倾听。

Cecilie: We can do great things alone, but even greater things together. Teamwork makes us stronger. When we work together, we learn to help, trust, and respect each other. Like in our PBL class, we work as a team.

韩羽扬：我们一个人可以做很棒的事情，但一起合作能做更了不起的事。团队合作让我们更强大。当我们合作时，我们学会帮助、信任和尊重彼此。就像在我们的PBL课上，我们一起进行团队合作。

Cecilie: We are the future youth. With creativity, critical thinking, communication and collaboration, we are ready to embrace the unknown world. 

韩羽扬：我们是未来少年，带着创造性思维、批判性思维、交流与合作能力，我们准备好拥抱未知世界。

Cecilie: That’s all. Thank you!

韩羽扬：我们的演讲到此结束，谢谢大家！
