2019年，加州大学圣克鲁斯分校被世界大学排名中心评为美国前50所公立大学。圣克鲁斯位于太平洋和圣克鲁斯山脉的红杉林之间，以温暖的气候、绵延数英里的风景海滩以及高科技和农业创新而闻名。学校以计算机科学、心理学、经济学和生物学专业而著名。
In 2019, UC Santa Cruz was ranked among the top 50 public universities in the U.S. by the Centre for World University Rankings. Located between the Pacific Ocean and the redwood forests of the Santa Cruz Mountains, Santa Cruz is famous for its warm climate, miles of scenic beaches, and innovation in high technology and agriculture. It is known for its Computer Science, Psychology, Economics and Biology programmes.
未来的嘉宾和分享会安排如下：
Information about upcoming guest speakers can be found below:
在每周的大学准备课程上，我们向学生们介绍有关大学的各方面信息，包括大学生活、选课、世界各地不同的申请系统等；同时，同学们也要学习如何建立一份高质量的个人档案，来帮助自己申请心仪的大学。我认为，在孩子逐步完成高中部的学业、并逐渐完善个人档案的过程中，家长的理解和支持也是非常重要的。因此，我想邀请七至十年级的全体家长和学生参加一场主题为“大学申请：如何建立一份出色的个人档案”的信息分享会。分享会将于10月29日（周五）下午2点至3点在学校大剧院举行。如果您确认参加，请通过以下链接报名 http://wellingtoncollegehangzhou.mikecrm.com/cuTRhOs ，期待与您见面。
Pupils are being taught in their weekly University Preparation about all aspects of university including what university life is like, how to choose a course and different application systems across the world. They are also learning about how to build a positive personal profile to strengthen their university applications. I feel that it is also important for parents to know how to support their child/children as they progress through their secondary education and develop their personal profiles. I would like to invite parents of all G7-G10 and Pre A Level classes to a presentation on 'Applying to university: making an outstanding application' on Friday 29 October in the theatre from 2:00pm-3:00pm. Please RSVP to the event via http://wellingtoncollegehangzhou.mikecrm.com/cuTRhOs. I look forward to seeing you there.

本周，杭州惠立学校WellingTEN讲座的第一期在初中部集会中正式举行。WellingTEN讲座类似于TED讲座的形式，是由国际社会组织发起的活动，旨在加深学生对世界的理解和认识。活动本身的理念基于思想拥有改变态度和生活，最终提升个体改变世界的能力。我们邀请学生们围绕一个自己受启发的主题，准备二分钟的演讲。十三位学生欣然接受挑战，以坚定的信念、激情和高超的语言技能发表了演讲。演讲主题五花八门，例如关于如何用积极的方式生活，如何理解成功的含义等。这十三位同学能够主动接受挑战，我们倍感欣慰。我也期待有更多的学生能够主动参加今后的WellingTEN讲座，积极影响和启发周围的同学。
This week Junior High Hiba pupils delivered the first series of Hiba Hangzhou’s WellingTEN talks in our assembly. The WellingTEN talks are modelled after TED talks, which is an initiative run by a global community that seek to deepen the understanding of the world. The philosophy is based on the idea that the power of ideas can change attitudes, lives and, ultimately, the world. Our pupils were invited to apply to participate within this initiative where they delivered a 2 minute speech based on a topic that inspired them. As always, our pupils quickly rose to the challenge, with 13 pupils volunteering to participate, delivering speeches with conviction, passion and demonstrating superb language skills. The topics that the pupils’chose included living an inspired life, positive ways to spend your time and what success looks like. I would like to congratulate all 13 pupils that rose to the challenge on this occasion and look forward to the future WellingTEN talks where I anticipate that many more pupils will volunteer to inspire their peers.
下周，我们将迎来德院的慈善日活动。本次活动我们以粉色为主题，支持关爱乳腺癌患者宣传周。同时，小升初衔接六年级家长信息分享会也将在下周举办。10月29日（周五）学校将举办有一场关于如何申请大学的讲座，为学生未来的大学申请做好充足的准备。
Next week we will be celebrating the De House Charity Day, which continues to support breast cancer awareness with the theme of pink, as well as the start of welcoming our Grade 6 pupils into Junior High with a talk to parents. Our pathways to university talks continue with the next parent session on Friday 29 October, to ensure that our pupils are fully prepared for future applications.

在惠立学校，我们一直都乐于与各惠立家庭相互学习、共同成长。本周，我和孙伟女士有幸与几组惠立家庭一起讨论了共同价值观、惠立特质以及最重要的——对小学低年级学生的共同期许。在相互交流学习之中，我们有机会去反思孩子的学习和教育问题，也为我们未来独特的合作教育之旅带来了更多启发。我们鼓励所有的惠立家庭提出疑问，分享正能量并寻求反馈。只有我们秉承初心、丰富思想、持续交流，才能成为成长型社群。
Sharing our experiences and learning from our families is always a great pleasure for us at school. Ms Wei and I have had the privilege to meet with several of our families this week, discussing our shared values, our unique identities and most importantly our shared aspirations for our pupils in lowerprimary. Learning from each other and having the opportunity to reflect on our children’ss learning and education provide us with a fantastic insight to pave the road forward in a partnership unlike any other. I encourage all families to ask questions, share the many positives and ask for feedback. We will only be able to grow as a community if we enrich our minds through constant communication.
