School News丨FLIS学子初探CAASEL中心:享受种植的乐趣吧!

The First CAASEL Visit


CAASEL(情商教育中心)自宣布成立以来,一直备受福州西湖国际学校师生关注。上周三,FLIS的中学生们率先前往第二课堂 - 情商教育中心,他们此行的目的是什么呢?

The Fuzhou Lakeside International School CAASEL Center has attracted much attention since its announcement at the beginning of this year. Last Wednesday, some FLIS secondary students paid a visit to the CAASEL center.  What did they discover?



在中心小广场上,CAASEL中心的主管外教Gerald老师介绍了将会协助大家完成今日“任务”的两位专家——负责教授种植与养殖的Teddy老师与农业专家吴先生;而今日FLIS中学生们的任务,就是体验种植的乐趣!同学们被分为四组,有的负责种树、有的负责播撒花种、给园地施肥,在老师的悉心讲解下,大家很快掌握了各项要义,在分配到的地里忙开了;农场区的各种小动物见来了客人,也纷纷聚集到围栏边,好奇不已。同学们见状,便在老师的指导下给小羊、兔子等喂食……

In the central plaza, Mr. Gerald, the director of the CAASEL Center, introduced two experts who would help to assist students to complete that day’s "mission" -- Mr. Teddy and Mr. Wu. The mission of those students was to experience the joy of planting! The students were divided into four groups. Some were responsible for planting trees, others for planting flowers and fertilizing the garden. Later, all kinds of small animals in the farm area gathered around the fence curiously, which drew students' attention. The students fed the sheep and rabbits under the teacher's supervision.




播下花种时,老师在一旁说:或许下回你们再来CAASEL时,就能看到成片的花圃开花啦,都是你们亲手种下的哦!昨日灰秃秃的花种,经过精心浇水、施肥,可能在明日开出绮丽的花朵;看似脆弱的树苗,有朝一日也会成为参天大树……教书育人是不是和这样的劳作也有相似之处呢?尽情挥洒汗水过后,Gerald老师带孩子们来到CAASEL中心的后方休闲区——在这里,阵阵江风送爽,行人远眺水面。

While planting flowers, the teacher remarked, “Perhaps next time you guys come to CAASEL, you can see the flower garden in full bloom, all a result of your hard work!” An inconspicuous seed may bloom beautifully after careful watering and fertilizing. Is there a parallel between teaching and gardening? Mr. Gerald took students to the back of the CAASEL center, where the wind blew and they overlooked the river for a tranquil end to an eventful day.

之后CAASEL中心又会给大家带来什么惊喜?敬请期待吧!
What surprises will the CAASEL Center bring us? We eagerly await the opening of the new CAASEL Center!
