Dear ISA Liwan Parents, Students and Community Members,
亲爱的各位爱莎荔湾家长、学生和社区成员:
I would like to take this opportunity to wish all those who celebrate Christmas – Merry Christmas! And to everyone a really great Happy New Year! We have had a very busy start to the academic year and already we have seen the ISA PLC and had a successful ISA Festival. Our new colleagues settled in very well and now it’s hard to tell who is new and who is old at our school? I have enjoyed watching the teaching and Learning taking place during this semester and I am very appreciative of the professionalism, time and effort that all our colleagues put into their work daily. We have a number of students, staff and families traveling over the upcoming holidays from New Zealand to Canada to Europe and right across Asia. It’s always great to hear of colleagues being ‘risk takers’ over the holidays and going to places that they have never been to before. Nevertheless, to all our community members – get some rest, enjoy your break and stay safe! See you all in 2024!
新年伊始,万象更新。我想借此机会祝所有人新年快乐!新学年伊始,学校开展繁忙的日常工作之余,我们还看到爱莎专业学习大会和爱莎日的成功举行。荔湾新同事快速融入到大家庭中,大家亲密无间,已经很难分清谁是新同事,谁是老同事了。我很高兴看到本学期的教学活动顺利进行;教职工在每日工作中投入百分百的专业精神、时间和精力,我永存感激。在即将到来的假期中,我们欣喜地看到有很多学生家庭与教职工前往新西兰、加拿大、欧洲,甚至到亚洲各地旅行,在假期里成为“冒险家”,前往未曾涉足的地方。不过,大家还是要好好休息,享受假期,注意安全!期待我们在2024 年再见!
Kind Regards & Take Care / 敬颂钧安

The year 2023 that we journeyed together was a period filled with laughter, sweat, and growth. In this year, every member of the ISA Liwan community scripted their own story with wisdom, diligence, and effort. Whether displaying intelligence and diligence in the classroom or showing unity and dedication in community activities, we faced various challenges together, conquered numerous difficulties, and ISA Liwan has been enriched with infinite colors because of each one of you. As the new year arrives, bringing with it a renewed radiance, let’s stride hand in hand into 2024, anticipating to continue scripting brilliance in the coming year.
我们一起走过的2023,是一段充满欢笑、汗水和成长的旅程。在这一年里,爱莎荔湾的每一位社区成员都用智慧、辛勤、努力书写着自己的故事。无论是在课堂上展现出的聪颖与勤奋,还是在社区活动中展现出的团结与奉献,我们一起面对了各种挑战,攻克了各种困难,爱莎荔湾正是因为你们而增添了无限的色彩。万物有光,如新而至,我们携手迈进2024,期待在新的一年中续写辉煌。
