万双网讯  国庆假期返校首日，秋高气爽，阳光明媚。2026年10月8日，万科双语学校举行2026—2027学年第一学期第6周升旗仪式。本周升旗仪式由2E班负责，郭牧心（Lisa）、向婉莹（Winnie）担任主持人。7C班周思成（Steven）、陈雅琳（Joya）、张淑涵（Alina）担任升旗手。护旗方阵由积极向上、团结友爱的2E班全体同学组成。拥有乐于协作的团队品格是2E班的目标，他们共同完成了庄严的升旗环节。

The first day back after the National Day holiday greeted students and teachers with clear skies and bright sunshine. On October 8th, 2026, Vanke Bilingual School held its Week 6 flag-raising ceremony for the first semester of the 2026–2027 academic year. The ceremony was organized by Class 2E, with Guo Muxin (Lisa) and Xiang Wanying (Winnie) serving as hosts. Zhou Sicheng (Steven), Chen Yalin (Joya), and Zhang Shuhan (Alina) from Class 7C served as flag raisers. The flag-bearing formation consisted of all students from Class 2E, a positive, caring, and united class. With teamwork and cooperation at the heart of their class values, the students worked together to carry out the solemn flag-raising ceremony.

在国旗下讲话环节，2E班孙欣桐（Ellie）、罗筱宁（Alisa）两位同学带来了主题为《守护心灵晴空，共创阳光校园》的中英双语演讲，向全校师生传达了心理健康的重要性。两位同学指出，健康不只是身体没有疾病，更包括情绪稳定、心态积极、人际关系和谐。对青少年而言，心理健康直接影响学习状态、同伴交往与自我认知——一个能够接纳自己、善于调节情绪的人，遇到困难时更容易坚持，也更容易感受到身边的善意。成为优秀少年的第一步，就是守护好自己的心理健康。

During the speech session, Sun Xintong (Ellie) and Luo Xiaoning (Alisa) from Class 2E delivered a bilingual speech entitled "Nurturing Healthy Minds and Building a Brighter Campus." Their speech highlighted the importance of mental health for the entire school community. The two students emphasized that good health means more than simply being free from physical illness. It also involves emotional stability, a positive mindset, and healthy relationships. For adolescents, mental health plays a vital role in academic performance, peer relationships, and self-awareness. Those who learn to accept themselves and manage their emotions are better equipped to persevere through difficulties and appreciate the kindness of others. Taking care of one's mental well-being, they noted, is the first step towards becoming a well-rounded young person.

两位同学倡议大家正确看待生活和学习中的烦恼，学会寻找解决之道。她们将心灵比作一片天空，烦恼则是偶尔飘过的乌云。负面情绪是成长中难免的小插曲，不妨以平常心接纳与看待。两位同学还分享了几点切实可行的建议，倡议大家学会做自己的"心灵小管家"：不开心时可以向信任的老师、同学倾诉；遇到困难不轻易退缩；与同学产生矛盾时多换位思考、体谅包容；情绪低落时通过运动、写日记等方式及时调整。

The speakers encouraged their fellow students to approach everyday worries and academic challenges with a healthy mindset and seek constructive solutions. Comparing the mind to an open sky and worries to passing clouds, they reminded everyone that negative emotions are a natural part of growing up and should be acknowledged rather than feared. They also offered several practical suggestions for becoming "the caretakers of our own mental well-being." When feeling unhappy, students can share their feelings with trusted teachers or friends. When facing difficulties, they should persevere rather than give up easily. When disagreements arise, they can try to see things from others' perspectives and respond with understanding and tolerance. During moments of sadness or frustration, physical exercise, journaling, and other healthy activities can help them regain their emotional balance.

两位同学提到，于校园之中，一个微笑、一次援手、一句鼓励，看似微小，却足以点亮自己，照亮他人。她们鼓励同学们磨砺意志，不攀比、不自卑，坦然接纳自己的不足，在日复一日的坚持中积蓄成长的力量。演讲尾声，两位同学以“少年自有向阳心，微光亦可暖天地”与全校师生共勉，愿大家怀阳光之心、行温暖之举，让校园因每一份善意而更加明亮。

The speakers further noted that a simple smile, a helping hand, or a few encouraging words may seem insignificant at first, yet each small act of kindness has the power to brighten someone's day. They encouraged students to develop resilience, avoid unnecessary comparisons, embrace their imperfections without feeling inferior, and build inner strength through consistent effort. They concluded their speech with an inspiring message: "Young hearts naturally reflect the sun, and even the smallest light can bring warmth to the world." They expressed the hope that everyone would nurture a positive outlook, act with kindness, and make the campus a brighter place through everyday acts of compassion.

随后，党支部组织委员陈佳敏老师进行时事热点宣讲。她从刚结束的国庆假期谈起——全国跨区域出行人次超过21亿，人们走出家门，在旅途中触摸祖国跳动的脉搏。陈老师重点介绍了新近竣工的两项国家工程：瑞延高铁连接长征出发地瑞金与落脚地延安，让两大红色圣地首次实现当日直达，既便利人们追寻红色足迹，也带动沿线革命老区发展；平陆运河作为新中国首条国家层面统筹规划、通江达海的运河，为西南腹地打开了面向海洋的新通道，也进一步畅通了中国与东盟的互联互通。

Following the student speeches, Teacher Chen Jiamin, a member of the School Party Branch Committee responsible for organizational affairs, delivered a presentation on current affairs. She began by reflecting on the recently concluded National Day holiday, during which more than 2.1 billion cross-regional passenger trips were made across China. As people traveled throughout the country, they experienced firsthand the vitality and development of the nation.

Teacher Chen then introduced two recently completed major national infrastructure projects: the Ruijin–Yan'an High-Speed Railway and the Pinglu Canal. The Ruijin–Yan'an High-Speed Railway connects Ruijin, the starting point of the Long March, with Yan'an, a key destination of the revolutionary journey. For the first time, the two historically significant revolutionary sites can be reached from one another within a single day. The railway not only makes it easier for people to retrace the footsteps of China's revolutionary history but also promotes economic and social development in the former revolutionary base areas along its route. The Pinglu Canal, China's first canal project planned and coordinated at the national level since the founding of the People's Republic of China, connects inland waterways with the sea. It opens a new maritime route for southwestern China's inland regions and further strengthens connectivity between China and ASEAN countries.

陈老师还分享了成就背后的建设者故事：他们常年扎根野外一线，顶着日晒雨淋推进施工，以强健体魄为立身之本；来自不同专业、地域的团队为了一个目标并肩作战，在磨合中彼此理解、互相支撑，慢慢磨砺出稳定的心态和健全的人格；他们将跨学科知识转化为图纸与工地上的现实，把“不可能”变为“可能”。陈老师勉励同学们，宏大的目标其实并不遥远——认真上好每一节体育课、坚持日常锻炼，是在筑牢健康根基；和同学包容互助、遇挫不轻易放弃，是在打磨健全人格；敢于提问、学会跨学科思考，是在一步步靠近学力卓越。今天在校园里的每一点积累，看似只是个人的一小步，却与国家发展、世界进步紧紧相连。它们一点点汇聚，终将成为创造更美好未来的力量。

Beyond these remarkable engineering achievements, Teacher Chen shared the stories of the people who helped bring these projects to life. Working on construction sites and in remote areas year after year, these dedicated builders endured intense sunshine, heavy rain, and demanding conditions, relying on physical strength and endurance to carry out their work. Teams from different professional backgrounds and regions worked side by side toward shared goals. Through cooperation, mutual understanding, and support, they developed emotional resilience and a well-rounded character. By applying knowledge from multiple disciplines to engineering designs and real-world construction, they transformed seemingly impossible ideas into reality. Drawing on these examples, Teacher Chen encouraged students to recognize that contributing to ambitious goals begins with small, meaningful actions in everyday life.

Participating actively in every PE lesson and exercising regularly helps build a strong foundation for physical health. Showing understanding and offering support to classmates, while refusing to give up in the face of setbacks, helps develop strength of character. Asking questions, thinking critically, and making connections across different subjects are essential steps toward academic excellence. She emphasized that all effort students make at school, however small it may seem, is connected to the broader development of the nation and progress around the world. Over time, these individual efforts can come together to become a powerful force for building a better future.

在全体师生热烈的掌声中，本次升旗仪式圆满结束。这次升旗仪式让同学们认识到，心理健康与身体健康同样重要，个人成长与国家发展紧密相连。愿每位同学从今天做起，学会关心自己和他人的情绪，心怀阳光，脚踏实地，努力成为身体健康、人格健全、学力卓越，具有家国情怀和国际视野，敢于创造美好未来的中国公民。

The ceremony concluded successfully with warm applause from teachers and students. It served as a meaningful reminder that mental well-being is just as important as physical health, and that personal growth is closely connected to national development. May every student begin today by caring for their own emotions and for those of others, embracing life with optimism, and taking steady, purposeful steps forward. Through continuous learning and personal growth, may our students become Chinese citizens of China with good physical health, sound personality, excellent academic abilities, patriotism, international vision, and the courage to create a better future.

国旗下讲话：守护心灵晴空，共创阳光校园

Respected teachers and dear classmates! Good morning!

尊敬的老师们，亲爱的同学们：大家早上好！

I'm Alisa from Class 2E. She is Ellie from Class 2E. Today our speech is about "Protect your Sunny Heart and Build a Bright School".

我是2E班的孙欣桐，她是 2E班的罗筱宁。今天，我们国旗下演讲的主题是 ——守护心灵晴空，共创阳光校园

Many of us think being healthy only means not being sick. But a healthy mind is just as important as a healthy body.

很多同学以为，健康就是身体不生病。其实，心理健康和身体健康同样重要。

Our mind is like the sky. Sometimes little dark clouds float by. We may feel sad when our schoolwork is hard, or when we fight with a friend. These feelings are normal — they are just little parts of growing up.

我们的心灵就像一片天空，偶尔会飘过烦恼的乌云，会因为学习遇到难题受挫、和朋友闹别扭、被批评而难过，这些都是成长中正常的小插曲。

Our school wants us to grow strong in body, kind in heart, and being brave to make a better future.

我们学校希望我们成长为身体健康、人格健全、心怀家国、敢于创造未来的好孩子。

To be such great kids, we should first take care of our heart. We can learn to be the “little helper” of our own mind. Talk it out when we feel sad. Learn to calm our feelings. Stay happy and kind.

想要成为这样的优秀少年，首先就要守护好自己的心灵。我们可以学着做自己的“心灵小管家”。不开心时大胆倾诉，遇到困难不退缩，懂得包容同学的小过错，学会调节自己的小情绪，保持乐观善良的心态。

A sunny heart helps us grow strong, and a warm school helps us grow. In our school, a smile, a helping hand, or a kind word can chase the clouds away and warm up our friends.

阳光的心灵，能造就健全的人格；温暖的校园，能滋养更好的我们。在校园里，一个微笑、一次帮忙、一句鼓励，都能驱散阴霾、温暖彼此。

We study hard and exercise every day. We don't compare with others. We are brave to accept what we're not good at. We get better, little by little.

我们坚持认真学习、坚持运动锻炼，不攀比、不自卑，勇敢接纳自己的不足，一点点进步、一点点成长。

Let's care about our school and our country and build a warm and sunny school.

少年自有向阳心，微光亦可暖天地。我们修炼品格、学好本领，涵养家国情怀，不仅能成就更好的自己，也能团结同学共建温暖阳光的校园。

Dear friends, let's start today! Stay healthy and kind!

同学们，让我们从现在做起，心怀阳光、向阳成长，用健康的身心、善良的初心，做新时代的好少年！

This is the end of our speech. Thank you!

我们的讲话完毕，谢谢大家！

Appendix: Teacher Chen Jiamin’s Current-Affairs Talk

亲爱的老师们、同学们：

Dear teachers and fellow students,

大家早上好！

Good morning, everyone!

刚刚过去的国庆假期里，全国跨区域出行人次突破21亿，无数人走进景区、踏上旅途，在山河之间感受祖国的蓬勃生机。就在这个假期，瑞延高铁正式通车，从长征出发地到落脚点，两个红色圣地首次实现当日高铁直达；平陆运河也正式通航，新中国首条通江达海的运河，为西南腹地打开了面向海洋的全新通道。

During the National Day holiday that just passed, cross-regional passenger trips across the country exceeded 2.1 billion. Countless people visited scenic spots and set out on journeys, experiencing the vibrant vitality of our motherland among its mountains and rivers. During this very holiday, the Ruijin–Yan'an High-Speed Railway officially opened to traffic. From the starting point of the Long March to its destination, these two revolutionary sacred sites were connected by a same-day high-speed rail link for the first time. The Pinglu Canal also officially opened to navigation. As New China's first canal connecting rivers to the sea, it has opened a brand-new maritime channel for the southwestern hinterland.

为了让线路早日通车、让运河顺利通航，建设者们常年扎根在野外一线，顶着日晒雨淋推进施工，没有强健的身体素质，根本扛不住这样长时间的高强度攻坚；来自不同专业、不同地域的团队伙伴，为了同一个目标并肩协作，在无数次的沟通磨合里彼此理解、互相支撑，在难题面前不推诿、不退缩，慢慢打磨出了稳定成熟的心态与健全的人格；他们学到的工程、地理、生态等跨学科知识，一点点转化成图纸上的方案、工地上的现实，用扎实的专业能力把看似不可能的目标变成了触手可及的便利，这正是“学力卓越”最鲜活的写照。

To open these routes and the canal as soon as possible, the builders took root in remote field sites year after year, pushing construction forward under sun and rain. Without a strong physical foundation, no one could withstand such prolonged, high-intensity efforts. Team members from different specialties and regions worked shoulder to shoulder toward the same goal. Through countless rounds of communication and adjustment, they came to understand and support one another, never passing the buck or shrinking back in the face of difficulty, gradually forging a stable, mature mindset and a sound character. The interdisciplinary knowledge they had acquired — in engineering, geography, ecology, and more — was gradually transformed into blueprints and on-site reality, turning seemingly impossible goals into tangible conveniences through solid professional competence. This is the most vivid illustration of “academic excellence.”

更动人的是，这些成就从不是闭门造车的产物：平陆运河打通的是中国与东盟互联互通的新纽带，我们的交通建设经验正在向全世界输出绿色方案，这些成果既扎根于中国大地，也在为全球的可持续发展贡献力量。这恰恰呼应了我们的万双培养目标：要做有家国情怀、也有国际视野的学习者，我们的每一份努力，最终都指向开创更美好、更和平的世界。

Even more inspiring is that these achievements were never the product of working behind closed doors. The Pinglu Canal forges a new link of connectivity between China and ASEAN, and our transportation construction expertise is being shared with the world as green solutions. These achievements are rooted in Chinese soil while contributing to global sustainable development. This echoes our VBS educational goals: to be learners with both a heart for our country and a global perspective, whose every effort ultimately points toward creating a better, more peaceful world.

同学们，这份宏大的目标从来都离我们不远：认真上好每一节体育课，坚持日常锻炼，就是在筑牢健康的根基；在班级相处中学会包容互助，在遇到挫折时不轻易放弃，就是在打磨健全的人格；在差异性、回应式的真实学习里主动提问、跨学科思考，就是在向着学力卓越一步步靠近。当我们把个人的成长和国家的发展、世界的进步连在一起，我们就会真正明白：今天在校园里的每一点积累，都是在为未来创造更美好的世界积蓄力量。

Students, these grand goals have never been far from us. Attending every PE class seriously and exercising daily is building a foundation for health. Learning to be tolerant and supportive in class, and not giving up easily when facing setbacks, is refining a sound character. In differentiated, responsive, authentic learning, asking questions proactively and thinking across disciplines is moving step by step toward academic excellence. When we connect our personal growth with our nation's development and the world's progress, we truly understand: every bit of accumulation on campus today is building strength for creating a better world tomorrow.

今天的话时事到此结束，谢谢大家！

That concludes today’s current-affairs talk. Thank you, everyone!
